SUNDAY IS HERE!
Good morning!
I’m up early this Sunday, praying for my friends and family, and reflecting on some important things.
Have you ever noticed what kinds of thoughts pull you down into worry or sadness? For me, the greatest enemy I’ve ever encountered is the spirit of Fear.
He’s a liar and a thief. He sneaks into our thoughts like a bandit, carrying a knapsack filled with destruction. He steals from us—our joy, our peace, our faith in the promises of God. And once he has our attention, he tries to give us things that only belong to him: lies about God, doubts about the future, shame about the past, condemnation over our choices, and tempting ideas for solving our problems without God.
But anything Fear offers only leads to regret and failure.
Don’t eat the fruit he hands you. Instead, take every fearful or discouraging thought and immediately turn it into a prayer. Bring it to your Father—the One who loves you most. Ask Him about the thoughts that are weighing you down. Then listen to what Truth has to say.
Believe God. Live free.
“It is for freedom that Christ has set you free.” (Galatians 5:1)
You no longer serve the enemy. His camp of despair is not your home.
Invite the Spirit of Christ Jesus to fill your heart and mind. He is your place of rest. He is your safety. He is your refuge.
Remember who you are—and Whose you are. Then cast that spirit of Fear far from you. And don’t let him leave with that knapsack!
Take back everything he’s tried to steal:
Take back your God-given joy.
Take back your God-given peace.
Have a blessed week believing the promises of God over your life!
