Fight

 Matthew 5:9

I just want to scream.  AAAAAAAAAArrRGGGGGGGGGHHH!

I am so tired of fighting the enemy.  I gave it to God but for some reason today the button was pressed that override my PEACE button.  When I get like this, I call on JESUS- glorify His Name and that is when I came across many lessons on increase and faith.  My spirit awakens when I turned the page and saw a youth program, I attended January 20, 2019 " You got to learn how to fight".  Spiritual techniques to stomp on the devil's neck; I am sick of him (can't you tell). 

I believe we all been there when we have said enough is enough.  I can't take this anymore.  Well, I learned when I get like this it is due to .......   

1. not checking my heart: 

If I stay in despair it will lead to anger which will lead to me saying or doing something God did not approve.  (This reminds me of the story when Moses got upset with the people of Israel and it cost him from entering the land of milk and honey: promise land).  Yeah, I'm calming down- who want to miss out on a blessing. 

     2. sowing a seed of evil:

People are watching me and how I conduct myself may move a person to make a judgement/observation based on my behavior.  I am also setting myself up for blockage or stronghold because I am planting something that will not produce or at least produce nothing good. Yeah, feeling way better- I want to reap only good fruit and be purposeful. 

    3.  reinforcing my sinful nature aka: "Jesus has left me" or have you ever heard someone say, "Jesus was not in me" 😶 I already messed up when that statement flies out my mouth.  We don't EVER want Jesus to leave us but for some reason we get Bad and Bougie.  By doing the things of God: reading His Word, praying, praising/singing, fasting, helping others, being kind, being humble, and being of service reinforces my path to righteousness.  Yeah, why was I mad again?   Ephesians 2: 1-8

Now I know what I have to do:  Stay Ready!  Stay Resilient! - No matter what!

When I fall in despair again to help me pull out of it, I will BOLDLY say, 

" Don't get it twisted (devil), I stay strapped...

Father in the front

Son in the back

and Holy Spirit watching all sides"      -unknown 

Always with Love,

                                A.P.E.P.

 When all else fails... Speak the Name:  JESUS!
