The Lie

Today, I was thinking how the devil wants us to believe his lies, that is the way he gets us to stop our focus on God. He will feed us with lies and make us feel not worth it, or that we are all alone. The devil wants us to think that we are the only ones that struggle with things and God is saying don't listen to him, he has come to destroy you. Isaiah 26:3 says "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." When we stop focusing on what the enemy says and start focusing on what God ways, it will change our perspective. Don't go through today thinking you are alone in life, because you are not. Don't focus on that feeling, focus on what God says, He says that we can walk through the valley of death and He will be with us, if we can walk through that, don't you think that we can walk through our day with the knowledge that God is our strength and our tower, He is there to protect us, to guide us and to help us grow. Don't give in to the lies of the enemy, you are not alone.

Philippians 4:6-7 "6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Pray today, trust and obey, for there is no other way. Don't let the enemy of our minds win, for today is a new day, it is your choice to allow God or to give into the enemy. Stand, because Jesus is right by your side.

The piece of grass in the picture is all alone in a sea of water, but it is standing, it is reaching towards heaven in the same we should. Don't give up because of the devils lies, stand and say I am worth it, I belong and walk in it. Proverbs 3:5-6 "5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him,|||| and he will make your paths straight."

Today is worry and doubt filling your mind, it is time to trust in Him, don't think you know how to get through it, trust God to carry you through it. Don't try to control God, surrender your will to Him, what you want to Him, because in doing that it is no longer about what I want, but what He wants and He will make my path straight. But I have to TRUST, Seek Him, Surrender and allow God. 

Are you trying to tell God what to do? Are you saying this isn't for me? Instead of saying that, say Lord your will be done, I surrender this to you. No longer is it about what you want, but what He wants and above all, trust and allow Him to straighten what is not clear. He will, He says it, I believe it and it settles it for me. Do you believe it?

Psalm 23:4 "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

Matthew 6:33 "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
