Floodgates
Whenever we start feeling disappointed at God or start getting confused and irritated when something goes the other way we want it to be, the enemy strikes. I guess the number 1 truth i must continue to have in my heart is this: "God works all things for the good of those who love Him". How wonderful of God to equip us with the sword of the spirit. However the flesh cannot be taken lightly. When the floodgates are open, when our defense is wide open, the enemy always finds its way into our heart and cause his destruction. I'm not sure what we should do after that. I often see myself falling into sin or being hurt by deceit or plain disillusioned. I guess we must all recognize the spiritual attack when it starts and prayerfully ask for the Lord's help. How eager He is to deliver and rescue us. Thank God.
What a nice lesson from the Lord today. As baptism draws near, like Ps. Ben said, you will be under spiritual attacks. I guess it's a really good time to strike when all of a sudden i was confused at how God works. I was quite sure i heard God telling to find this job at a particular place and then i went there filled up the form and nothing happened. Was wondering if i heard wrongly or just my flesh playing tricks on me. I didnt even know when i was feeling disappointed. Yea, what a nice opportunity for the enemy to strike. I shan't talk about his lies or whatever he used but i must really thank God for this lesson. Without this i'd probably be hurt by some kind of dumb lie or falling into sin.
w00t how great is the Lord my God, the Teacher and the Redeemer!
