EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:

God gives us “senses” so we can veer away from things that could harm us. It’s not wrong to be afraid of what “could” happen. That’s being real. What could become wrong in our lives is that we don’t seek God’s help immediately, and we continue living in constant fear of the unknown.

We need to humble ourselves in worship before God and trust Him in all things.
Let’s think about this quote for a moment. It’s not my quote, but I read it somewhere, and it’s so true!…
“Our praise reminds the enemy of who God is and how well we know Him.”

Do you think the enemy wants us to worship and praise God? My answer is no! So, every time I try to build an altar to God in my life- why does the enemy try to stop me? He is relentless in his effort. I encounter this over and over and see it with others, and thankfully, I can identify it now! Especially being in a women’s ministry that is growing so immensely.

Have you faced any frightening opposition in your life lately? Are you sometimes overwhelmed with how little strength and power you feel in the midst of it all? You get tired, right?

Remember 1 John 4:4!
“The One who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”

You have far more power with you than there is with the enemy. Hold that fact close to your heart when you are faced with a strong enemy that wants to annihilate you. God is greater! Victory is His!

My dear sister, if you are weary and worn, do not be afraid or discouraged. “Be strong and courageous! But with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles.” (2 Chronicles 32)
