Day 54

Ephesians 6:12 ~ “This is not a wrestling match against a human opponent. We are wrestling with rulers, authorities, the powers who govern this world of darkness, and spiritual forces that control evil in the heavenly world.” (GWT)

I’m going to get straight to the point today and remind you that the closer you get to God, the more the enemy tries to distract you. Your spouse, your children, your best friend, anyone you hold close to your heart, those are the ones he chooses to use against you. He knows who to use and how best to use them to hurt you. Instead of allowing that person to upset you, rebuke the devil and keep it moving. It’s not them; it’s the spirit within them. You have to pray for those who despitefully use you, ESPECIALLY when it is your family. Don’t harbor ill feelings towards them; don’t try to cut them off, instead love on them even more. James 4:7 says, “If you resist the devil, he will flee”. You have to stand firmly on God’s word and declare that NO weapon formed against you will prosper! Satan knows all that God has in store for you, and he does not want to you have it. He desperately wants to take you out of the will of God, don’t let him!
