God's Self Defense Plan

I Peter 5:8-9   NLT

^8 "Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. ⁹ Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are."

God has given us a great self-defense plan:  HIS WORD.    Friend, we're not alone in our struggle.    We all face the same enemy, the devil.  But be of good cheer, Jesus has overcome that foe, relying on Him we will be victorious.

Today's struggles are temporary!     Victory shall be ours – IF we let the Lord fight our battles.  HE is victorious!

Don't let satan get you down, stand firm on God's Word!

When on a long journey with a friend, inevitably the personality of that friend becomes evident from his behavior and responses. Soon, one could easily order for the other at any restaurant. Preferences in many of life’s choices become well-known to each other.

So it is in our journey with God. It doesn’t take long to discover that He delights in caring for His own. The supernatural is His go-to method when we are facing challenges. Witness the feeding of the 5,000 or the 4,000 for that matter. And the calming of the raging sea is one of my personal favorites.

Make your own list of the miraculous interventions of God in the lives of ordinary people as Jesus strolled among them. It seems a given that whatever crisis you face, someone in those days stood toe-to-toe with something just as daunting. Truth is; Jesus is just as present in your life as He was in theirs back then.

Go ahead and believe for your miracle. You’re in excellent company.

Your friends over here at Battlefield Assembly of God are expecting it will happen for you too!

Lovingly,

Pastor Rich Orrell

Luke 18: 27 NIRV

Jesus replied, 'Things that are impossible with people are possible with God."

Friend:  Do you believe this word from the Lord?   Do you believe that He can do the impossible in your marriage, your lives, and the lives of your family?  Can HE stop the growth of ISIS, Ebola and other plagues that are terrifying the world today?

YES HE CAN;  and He WILL if His  people will only Pray and trust in Him.

It is our job to pray and His responsibility to answer. 

God is bigger than all our fears, problems and difficulties.

Join me today in trusting Him to do the impossible!  

Love ya,  Pastor Phil
