The Boardroom Meeting in Hell
If you’re really in God, every living second, minute, or hour of your life is a battle against evil. Yes, you are a target of your adversary, the devil. He literally sits at his boardroom table in hell and plans his attack on you with his subordinates [just like he did with Job and countless others]. That is essentially what you want–you want to be a burden to your enemy!
Make Satan Know You
My encouragement to you is this: make Satan be intimately acquainted with you–he should know who you are!! Just like he knew who Jesus and Paul were [yet he did not know the others who tried to rebuke him in Acts 19:15]. At the beginning, middle, and end of each day, Satan should know David Newby [insert your name here].
Aren’t you glad that you’re that important and powerful as an opponent that Satan considers you? Rejoice, and be glad: The fact that you’re still standing, living, and breathing shows that you’re winning.
Get Covered by God
Here’s what you should know: Satan seeks to steal, kill, and destroy you. However, he will take either or ALL of those elements. If he can’t kill you, he wants to rob you. If he can’t rob you, he wants to destroy you. So, the fact that you’re alive means he can’t kill you–simply because he is having a hard time getting to you [God has a hedge around you]. But if you’re not covered, he can still rob and destroy. You can get covered by growing in God and walking in Him. Then, get on the attack!!
Get on the Attack
Here’s what it means to be on the attack: You simply Stop ‘taking stuff’ from the devil, and START TAKING ‘stuff’ from the devil–go get your land, joy, health, peace, prosperity, and all the blessings that God has promised you–which are being held behind enemy lines: ‘The Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent takes it by force’ [Matthew 11:12]
The Takeaway
If you’re going out everyday on the attack, trust me–Satan will know who you are and you will be a mighty force to be reckoned with–simply because you’re walking in the power of God to overcome your adversary.
Power to the Saints of the Most High God,
David
Nicely stated David, Knowing that I’m under attack, and am a target just confirms that God is Mine and I am His! And God is Greater than All and anything the devil can send my way!
Thank you, and well put. It’s not really a matter of whether or not we are under attack–being in God, we WILL be attacked–no ifs, ands, or buts, about it.
If someone in God is not under attack, I think they’d better stop and ask themselves ‘why’…they may already be ‘caught’ [just something to consider].
