ENDURE HARDSHIP WITH US LIKE A GOOD SOLDIER OF CHRIST JESUS!

 TODAY WE ARE SO DIVIDED BECAUSE MY ENEMY THE DEVIL HAS  BLINDED US FROM THE TRUTH THAT THE DEVIL IS THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL. SO WHEN EVIL HAPPENS IN THE WORLD REMEMBER NOT TO BLAME EACH OTHER FOR WHAT DEVIL IS DOING.

 JESUS SAID: "NOW" IS THE TIME FOR JUDGEMENT ON THIS WORLD; "NOW" THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD WILL BE DRIVEN OUT."  (John 12:31) THE DEVIL IS DEFEATED, THE BATTLE HAS BEEN WON, GOD IS VICTOURUS!

THE WORD OF GOD HAS POWER OVER THE DEVIL. WHEN JESUS WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL; JESUS ANSWERED "IT IS WRITTEN" THEN QUOTED THE WORD OF GOD. THE WRITTEN WORD HAS THE POWER TO DEFEAT THE DEVIL AND ALL HIS EVIL FORCES. I INVOKE THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORLD TODAY BY SPEAKING THE WORD OUT OF MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART, BACK IN MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART. THIS IS A DIVINE CYCLE THAT POWERS GOD'S WORD.

CAN I GET AN AMEN FROM ALL WHO CALL ON GOD. AMEN!

"DO NOT REPAY ANYONE EVIL FOR EVIL. BE CAREFUL TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT IN THE EYES OF EVERYBODY. IF IT IS POSSIBLE, AS FAR AS IT DEPENDS ON YOU, LIVE AT PEACE WITH EVERYONE. DO NOT TAKE REVENGE, MY FRIENDS, BUT LEAVE ROOM FOR GOD'S WRATH, FOR IT IS WRITTEN: "IT IS MINE TO AVENGE; I WILL REPAY," SAYS THE LORD. ON THE CONTRARY: "IF YOUR ENEMY IS HUNGRY, FEED HIM; IF HE IS THIRSTY, GIVE HIM SOMETHING TO DRINK. IN DOING THIS, YOU WILL HEAP BURNING COALS ON HIS HEAD." DO NOT BE OVERCOME BY EVIL, BUT OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD! (Romans 12:17-21)

THE DEVIL IS MY ENEMY, BECAUSE I AM A CHILD OF GOD, DESERVING OF LOVE AND RESPECT. AND GOD WILL USE ME TO CHANGE THE WORLD. ALL I KNOW IS JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED, JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS FOR MY SINS AND THROUGH JESUS CHRIST I HAVE A RECONCILIED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD "NOW" THIS PRESENT MOMENT.

JESUS SAID; "I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN GOD" AND AGAIN JESUS SAYS, "HERE I AM, AND THE CHILDREN GOD HAS GIVEN ME."

SINCE THE CHILDREN HAVE FLESH AND BLOOD, JESUS TOO SHARED IN THEIR HUMANITY SO THAT BY JESUS'S DEATH, JESUS MIGHT DESTROY HIM WHO HOLDS THE POWER OF DEATH - THE DEVIL - AND FREE THOSE WHO ALL THEIR LIVES WERE HELD IN SLAVERY BY THEIR FEAR OF DEATH. (Hebrews 2:13-15)

YOU THEN, MY SON, BE STRONG IN THE GRACE THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS. AND THE THINGS YOU HAVE HEARD ME SAY IN THE PRESENCE OF MANY WITNESSES ENTRUST TO RELIABLE MEN WHO WILL ALSO BE QUALIFIED TO TEACH OTHERS. ENDURE HARDSHIP WITH US LIKE A GOOD SOLDIER OF CHRIST JESUS. NO ONE SERVING AS A SOLDIER GETS INVOLVED IN CIVILIAN AFFAIRS -HE WANTS TO PLEASE HIS COMMANDING OFFICERS. (JESUS CHRIST) (2 Timothy 2:1-4)

FOR THOUGH WE LIVE IN THE WORLD, WE DO NOT WAGE WAR AS THE WORLD DOES. THE WEAPONS WE FIGHT WITH ARE NOT THE WEAPONS OF THE WORLD. ON THE CONTRARY, THEY HAVE DIVINE POWER TO DEMOLISH STRONGHOLDS. WE DEMOLISH ARGUMENTS AND EVERY PRETENSION THAT SETS ITSELF UP AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, AND WE TAKE CAPTIVE EVERY THOUGHT TO MAKE IT OBEDIENT TO CHRIST. AND WE WILL BE READY TO PUNISH EVERY ACT OF DISOBEDIENCE, ONCE YOUR OBEDIENCE IS COMPLETE. (2 Cor.10:3-6)

FOR OUR STRUGGLE IS NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST THE RULERS, AGAINST THE AUTHORITIES, AGAINST THE POWERS OF THIS DARK WORLD AND AGAINST THE SPIRITUAL FORCES OF EVIL IN THE HEAVENLY RELMS. THEREFORE PUT ON THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD, SO THAT WHEN THE DAY OF EVIL COMES, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND YOUR GROUND, AND AFTER YOU HAVE DONE EVERYTHING, TO STAND. STAND FIRM THEN, WITH THE BELT OF TRUTH BUCKLED AROUND YOUR WAIST, WITH THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN PLACE, AND WITH YOUR FEET FITTED WITH THE READINESS THAT COMES FROM THE GOSPLE OF PEACE. IN ADDITION TO ALL THIS, TAKE UP THE SHEILD  OF FAITH, WITH WHICH YOU CAN EXTINGUISH ALL THE FLAMING ARROWS OF THE EVIL ONE. TAKE THE HELMET OF SPIRITUAL SALVATION AND THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD. AND PRAY IN THE SPIRIT ON ALL OCCASIONS WITH ALL KINDS OF PRAYERS AND REQUEST. WITH THIS IN MIND, BE ALERT AND ALWASY KEEP PRAYING FOR THE SAINTS.

PRAY ALSO FOR ME, THAT WHENEVER I OPEN MY MOUTH, WORDS MAY BE GIVEN ME SO THAT I WILL FEARLESSLY MAKE KNOWN THE MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL, FOR WHICH I AM AN AMBASSADOR IN CHRIST. PRAY THAT I MAY DECLARE IT FEARLESSLY AS I SHOULD. (Eph.6:13-20)

"BECAUSE DAN LOVES ME," SAYS THE LORD, "I WILL RESCUE DAN; I WILL PROTECT DAN, FOR DAN ACKNOWLEDGES MY NAME. DAN WILL CALL UPON ME, AND I GOD WILL ANSWER DAN; I WILL BE WITH DAN IN TROUBLE, I WILL DELIVER DAN AND HONOR DAN. WITH LONG LIFE WILL I SATISFY DAN AND SHOW DAN MY SPIRITUAL SALVATION." (Psalm 91:14-16)

WHAT, THEN, SHALL WE SAY IN RESPONSE TO THIS? IF GOD IS FOR US, WHO CAN BE AGAINST US? (Romans 8:31)

THE SPIRIT HIMSELF TESTIFIES WITH OUR SPIRIT THAT WE ARE GOD'S CHLIDREN. NOW IF WE ARE CHILDREN, THEN WE ARE HEIRS - HEIRS OF GOD AND CO-HEIRS WITH CHRIST, IF INDEED WE SHARE IN CHRIST'S SUFFERINGS IN ORDER THAT WE MAY ALSO SHARE IN CHRIST'S GLORY. (Romans 8:16-17)

"WHERE, O DEATH, IS YOUR VICTORY? WHERE, O DEATH, IS YOUR STING?" THE STING OF DEATH IS SIN, AND THE POWER OF SIN IS THE LAW. BUT THANKS BE TO GOD! GOD GIVES US THE VICTORY THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. THEREFORE, MY DEAR BROTHERS, STAND FIRM. LET NOTHING MOVE YOU. ALWAYS GIVE YOURSELVES FULLY TO THE WORK OF THE LORD, BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT YOUR LABOR IN THE LORD IS NOT IN VAIN. (1 Cor.15:55-58)

WE ARE CALLED TO SHARE IN JESUS WORK, WE ARE CALLED TO CELEBRATE IN JESUS. GOD IS GOD AND WE ARE NOT. THE GLORY OF GOD IS JESUS, GOD USES OUR LIPS TO DECLARE THAT GLORY. GOD USES OUR LOVE TO DEMONSTRATE THAT GLORY AND GOD URGES US TO EXERCISE THAT GLORY BY BELIEVING CONTINUALLY IN JESUS WORDS.

I SWEAR THIS IS THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP ME GOD!

"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT AND GOD'S WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)

TODAY THE WORLD HAS FALLEN FOR A LIE, AND IT IS MY ENEMY THE DEVIL WHO HAS DECIEVED THEM, BECAUSE THE DEVIL IS THE FATHER OF ALL LIES. GOD'S WORD OF TRUTH IS STRONGER THAN THE DEVIL'S LIES.
