He knows he can’t stop you.

“Lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices…Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place” 2 Corinthians 2:11 & 14, NKJV.

The devil is grasping for straws. He’s looking for anything he can, any thought, any small matter, or any device to attack you with to hinder you. You’re in a great place, and since he can’t derail you, he will attempt to have you derail yourself. Don’t let up on him. Keep your foot on his neck. Stand your ground and remain forceful about letting nothing stop you from an abundant life in Christ, walking in the love of God, and moving forward.

Allow the pitiful attacks only to confirm that you’re on the right track, my sister. Stay the course. Reject the lies and keep your eyes on the truth of God’s word. Keep your eyes on the truth of His calling and the assignments He’s given you. Do not afraid of bad news, but let your heart be fixed, trusting in the Lord. The only one afraid right now is the devil because you’re about to advance the kingdom in a mighty way!

Prayer: Father, I give You all the praise and glory. I say yes to Your will and yes to Your way. Thank you for helping me not be ignorant of satan’s devices. He’s grasping for anything he can to hinder me. I rebuke every lie and stand on the truth of Your word! I stand on the truth of who I am in Christ and Your plans for me. Help me to keep loving others, forgiving, and living an abundant life in Christ. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
