Diabolic War

Lord Jesus, there are so many pitfalls the devil has put before us, so many ways to fall from the glorious life you want me to live. No matter which way I look or go, Lord there holes covered by veils of righteousness or purity, but lead to sin. Who is able avoid all these? Not even Solomon in all his wisdom nor David in heart of hearts. Lord, I submit to you all my life. Lord, I submit to You every desire, every thought, every action: those which appear clean and those which appear unclean, those that I like and those I dont like. I submit to You, I submit to Your church, I submit to my fathers. Provide in this next week a hedge around us, that in the times of Your passion, there is no place for satan and his wiles, but only the true demonstration of Your love for us. Through the intercessions and prayers of the saints who peased you since the begining. Amen.

Job 3: 20 -26 – Why is light given to him who is in misery?

Cause i wouldnt give the light a second look if i thought i was fine. We dont welcome Christ in and change when we are all honky dory, we come to Christ after having been broken, bruised, and wounded. Thats when im open to the message, were the most strengthing of faith is done – not at a high intelectual level, but when ive lost all my crutchs, and i see my misery.

For years, i truly believed that i was sufficient for everything, that i could figure things out.  In that time, I was surrounded by the most God-fearing people, most resourses and oppurtunities to grow in faith, but even though the light was there, there was absolutely no gain.  It was of no benefit.  It took going to Africa for me to realize how little i am capable of without the help of God, I hope nobody else is as stubborn as me.

Job, man hes a good guy.
