There are so many voices in the world. There are so many claims to "Truth".
I used to fall prey to so much confusion and deception as I never felt I was “enough”. Today Ephesians 3:17-19 has taken on a whole new meaning. To the world the gospel is foolishness but to the believer there is no greater serenity then being rooted and grounded in Jesus Christ.
I always felt I was always coming up short or missing the mark or hopelessly flawed so it put me on an endless hamster wheel of thinking I had to earn grace rather then receive grace as a free gift.
This is a miserable place to be. Let me tell you this isn’t the love our Father offers.
HIS LOVE is a secure love. He doesn’t give up on us. Ever. He is relentless in his pursuit of our heart. His promise is that he sticks to us closer than a brother.
He convicts us through REVELATION which works like a light bulb illuminating the area he wants to change and this ILLUMINATION will ALWAYS come with not only the problem but the solution and the POWER to CHANGE. HIS POWER. It will also always align with scripture.
The devil also knows scripture but the diff? He (devil) will beat you up with it. He will make you feel like a hopeless sinner that needs to be in fear all the time striving for perfection lest you be smited. He will make you feel
Like no matter how hard you try God is mad at you.
KNOW the DIFFERENCE. Test the spirits. Test the energy. This IS BIBLICAL.
Does it bring you closer to God? Does it lift you up and make you as better person? Does it make you want to draw into God ? Every good thing is from heaven above.
Does it bring you down? Discourage you in your walk with God? Does it send you into a depression abyss? NOT GOD. The devil comes to kill, steal and destroy and if he knows he can’t have you because you are Gods beloved child then he will weary you, wear you out and keep you bound up in turbulent self doubt and negative emotions.
I hope this blesses someone today. We are surrounded by so much these days and my prayer is that YOU RISE into greater victory. You are soooooo L❤️VED!!!!
