Hey Gang,
The other day I wrote a blog about our opposition. God gave me another thought and I thought I would give it to you. Hope it helps! When we are in the midst of the battle what are we supposed to do? It says in the book of Hebrews to “fix your eyes on Jesus.” The key to winning the war is your focus. This is a recurrent theme for me and I hope for you. We are to stay riveted on Jesus and His throne. If we stay fixed on the circumstances we will be like Peter - out of the boat walking on the water and sink.
Didn’t the Psalmist say, “Even though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death You are with me?” We live in a world of shadows, the real reality is in the spiritual world. The things that will last are the things that God does. So in the midst of the war the enemy wants your eyes off the Victor and on the “victim.” We are not victims but “more than conquerors.” Jesus won the victory when He walked out of death and the grave. Focus on the finish! Keep your eyes on the throne and the glory of God and know we have WON!
See ya at the celebration!
Love ya,
Pastor
Well i can tell you one thing. Of all of my new year resolutions, God has really been working in my life so my goal of growing closer to the lord is well on its way. Heck, ive gone from being in complete disobediance and resenting church to reading the bible everyday and serving at every given moment i can. The goal in my life has gone from being self successful to wanting others to have the best before I do. That’s the work of the lord for ya. Wasn’t getting anywhere before. But now because of him my whole world is uplifted.
