Good morning! How are we faithing? It's been an eventful tiring time for us lately. The things that take place around us take a toll on rest, attitude, and our sense of well being. We can't be joyous all the time but we can be joyful. Sometimes our own past sneaks up and sucker punches us when we thought those things had been dealt with. The enemy loves to bring up past sins and things we totally screwed up on and if it has already been dealt with, why does that button when pushed work? Because satan is the accuser of the brethren. Satan and his minion like to throw old stuff into our face to try to render us ineffective. A good friend told me to stand and speak out " God has already whooped this so in the name of Jesus, I rebuke things that are already settled and won". Isn't that cool? Why do we fight the same battles that have already been fought and won? Recognise when this happens. Be in the Word to be ready when this type of attack happens, and it will. If the enemy is able to move our focus off Jesus and onto ourselves, we are in deep trouble.
1 PETER 5:6-11
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you. To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your wisdom in your Word. Lord we ask for strength to stand, courage to act and vision for truth. Help us be who we are to be. Protect the innocent. Preserve our republic. Open eyes of our leaders. Protect our emergency workers and our troops. Protect us who are on the road, in Jesus name, amen
