The Battlefield

Face it; we all have issues, struggles and different circumstances in our lives that we must deal with daily. These battles eventually affect the condition of our heart, our mind and ultimately attack our faith.

Before long with all these battles we get to the point where we lose sight of our goals, our plans, and our dreams. We let the battle in our minds get us to the point where our hope becomes faded, our sight of victory is dimmed, and the blessings we prayed for is blown away like the wind.

Our mind is now so full of distracting thoughts, and stresses that our sight is fixed on the negative issues and different situations. That kind of battle leads to wrong thinking. You need to know that when wrong thinking sets in, depression is not far behind.

These wrong thoughts give the enemy access to your mind and something to work with. Satan will use your wrong thinking to lead you into wrongdoing (sin) and making wrong decisions.

Genesis 4:7 But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."

Focusing on his lies prevents you from staying focused on the truth which is the Word of God.

Have you ever struggled with faith before?

Let me tell you the battles in life can affect the way you speak, the way you think, the way you adore things, the way you stand-up against temptation, and the way you look at life and the world around you.

The effect of this wrong thinking will give you feelings of confusion, anger, pain, and fear. This wrong thinking will ensue, a battle that will be a direct attack on your marriage, your children, your body, your finances, your relationship with others and the battle will attack your relationship with God. Your communication, interaction with others and with God will change. In the battle The Word of God in your heart will be stolen by the enemy unless you hold on and fight the good fight of faith.

Let’s face it we all go through these battles, you are not the only one. We have got to exercise our faith and strengthen our walk in Christ. We must know beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are who God says that we are and that we have all, that He says that we have.

Know that if God said it then it is SO.

Know who you are in Christ:

You are a child of God, who is the King of Kings.
You are called for a purpose.
You are called for such a time as this.
You are called a King and a Priest, a Royal Priesthood.
You are called to have authority, dominion, and power.
You are an heir of God and joint-heir with Jesus Christ.
You are his beloved, His precious possession, His treasure.
You are just like Him.

Do you know who you are?

Pray this with me:

Father, reveal to me the point of my rebellion, show me the point where I have stop looking at You and have set my sights on the things of this world. Of those things important to me, show me Lord, what I place before you. Show me my excuses for not knowing you better. Show me where my faith needs strengthening. Allow me to walk through these battles and come out stronger in faith than I was before. Walk with me and teach me to strengthen my mind, guard my heart and watch my mouth. Help me fight the battles that can only be won by You. Help me to trust You more. Father, this is my prayer in the battle I am facing now. In His name Amen.

May God bless you,
