Previously published in the Summer 2014 but relevant for today just as much.
[WARNING: I AM NOT YOUR AVERAGE CHRISTIAN. I DO NOT FIT INTO
SOME MOLD OF EXPECTATIONS HELD BY MOST CHRISTIAN RELIGIONS. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN
RELIGION IN AND OF ITSELF. I BELIEVE SOLELY IN THE BIBLE AND TRUST WHAT IT HAS
TO SAY TO ME. I CHOSE TO FELLOWSHIP IN A SANCTUARY OF BELIEVERS, BUT THAT IS NOT WHO I AM. I AM SIMPLY A CHRISTIAN
DEFINED BY THE BIBLE, NOT DOCTRINES. YOU ARE WARNED BECAUSE I AM LIKELY TO
OFFEND SOME WITH THIS POST. THAT IS NOT MY INTENT. MY DECLARATION IS MADE
PUBLIC AS A WARNING TO SATAN.]
Today my worst nightmare has been confirmed…. (this song
popped into my head) “my past keeps playing with my head, failure strikes me
down again, I’m reminded of the wrong, that I have said and done, and that the devil just won’t let me forget”… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZVjKrmvYYQ
The insanity set forth to destroy my life has shown me the grip it has on
someone dear to me and my inability to undo it, proving once again I have
failed…
My emotions are mixed. I’m mad at myself for letting my guard
down when I knew better. I’m angry at God because I trusted Him to do what I
couldn’t. I am beyond pissed at Satan…I can hear his snarly-ass snickering with
an evil grin smeared across his face that I would love to slap off. Unfortunately, it is not “flesh and blood I wrestle against, but principalities, against
powers, rulers of darkness and spiritual host of wickedness “(Eph 6:12). He is
just hoping this is one more setback in my life that will finally make me cave
and stop trusting God to see me through. The saying, “I’m going to beat the hell
out of you” has never been truer than now and if only God would give me the
opportunity and power to do it. I would
take Satan on single-handedly if I knew Jesus didn’t already have it covered. (Satan
doesn’t want me to pull out all my UFC moves- I keep them hidden for a reason).
So many more emotions tied up within my
stomach…. I’m not even going to describe or discuss. Doing so simply elevates
Satan instead of Christ, the one I want elevated
So, Satan, I declare WAR on you this day, it is time for you and all
your cronies to be on guard. I have a sword you WILL NEVER defeat. It was given to me to “whoop data” [watch
Meet the Browns you will know what I’m saying]….and “whoop” is being nice… You’ve
chosen this battle but I am not sure you remember who you are coming against.
It is not I that has and will continue to defeat you but Jesus (1John 4:4)
However, the leader of this army has CHOSEN ME (Eph 1:4-5). So guess whose side I’m on??? - THE WINNING
SIDE- and guess what that makes me… a winner too. BOOYA!!!!
I AM a child of THE KING (Gal.4:4-7) sealed with more
promise than I have even yet to learn (Eph. 1:13). I am the head and not the
tail (Deut. 28.13). You, Satan, are the tail, (Isa. 9:15) the one who teaches lies and
is the father of ALL lies. (John 8:44) Maybe you have forgotten Jesus has
destroyed your power against me since I am one filled with the Holy Spirit (Col.
2:15), an overcomer (1 John 4:4), a believer equipped to perform great works
that will glorify MY HEAVENLY FATHER (John 14: 12-14)
I will not be defeated. The Commander and Chief of the army
I serve will never let me down, always
stick by me and PROTECT me from evil. (2 Thes. 3:3). I live and move in
him; I can’t get away from him (Acts 17:26). Through Jesus, I have already been
given the victory (1 Cor 15:57).
You … demand proof that Christ speaks through
me, believe me, you will get more than you bargained for. You’ll get the full
force of Christ, don’t think you won’t. He was sheer weakness and humiliation
when he was killed on the cross, but oh, he’s alive now—in the mighty power of
God! I wasn’t much to look at, either, when I was humiliated by you, but
when I deal with you this next time; I’ll be alive in Christ, AND strengthened by God. You have been warned. I am not lying down and
I am no easy target.
THE BIBLE WAS GIVEN TO ME BY A MIGHTY GOD AS A SWORD THAT I
HAVE PICKED UP AND PLAN TO SWING LIKE A CRAZY PERSON UNTIL I FEEL THE NEED TO
REGAIN MY SANITY…UNTIL THEN MARK MY WORDS:
This is my bible: I have what it says I have. I am what it says I am.
I am CONFIDENT not intimidated, meek or insecure, STRONG and not weak, FOCUSED and not scattered,
ABOVE and not below, THE HEAD and not the tail, A LEADER not a follower,
SUCCESSFUL not a failure, more than a CONQUEROR; EQUIPPED, EMPOWERED,
WELL-ABLED to ACCOMPLISH my dreams and GOD’S PLANS FOR ME. GOD STANDS BESIDE
ME, GOES BEFORE ME AND PREPARES MY WAY
