It has been a long while since we last conversed. I have been off fighting crime and uncovering all sorts of mischief and all too preoccupied to sit down and share with you my fellow crime fighters, or perhaps your just an avoider.... sorry in a silly mood, I was not watching Dick Tracy, Poirot, Matlock, or Chuck Norris -anything... I promise.. not today at least, though last night I did watch Dark Knight again (love that movie).
Ah, the fight of Good vs. Evil. Classic and timeless tale! I love how the Dark night exposes the truth of what the enemy tries to do, he is not after money, or even the lusts of this life as we oft see and picture them. And he sure enough knows that he cannot bring down the Big Guy Himself, but in longing to cause pain to God, he seeks out to kill, steal and destroy all those whom God loves... You and Me.
Though this is the case, and the enemy is a crafty one, we mustn't forget who we have on our side. For the Lord knows the schemes of the enemy and knows when he plans on doing an attack, we simply need to be alert to hear, see, and feel the signs as they are exposed by the Light. Be prepared, and if you aren't when it comes, get prepared and armed, with the tools at hand. I.e. the Word, Prayer, Godly friends & encouragement, praises and worship
Know that the enemy will use any and all methods to distract you just enough to neutralize you, especially if he realizes that he cannot fully take you out of the faith, he can have you stagnant and ineffective for kingdom building and deeper God-loving.
As of late I have been noticing all the more the workings of the enemy and seeing how strongly he has been attacking and so I am determinedly joining the ranks of my brothers and sisters before me and during this time, to lift up the Body of Christ in prayer as we face these many great challenges and opportunities to expand the Kingdom of God and Believe for New Victories. Will you join me as we fight the Good Fight!?
Until later be blessed & Live love,
Melinda
