John 10:10 NKJV The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. The enemy is still using the same playbook that he always has. Why? Because he has the same goal: to kill, steal and destroy that which God loves. And apparently, the plays that he is using work as well today as they did in the time of Adam and Eve. So let's use that to our advantage! God said that there is nothing new under the sun (Eccl 1:9). So just like the bible shows us those who fell into Satan's traps, the bible also shows us those who successfully avoided them. God has tapes of every game the enemy ever played, so He knows which strategy the enemy is about to use next and how to overcome them. But, we have to know the playbook so that when we are called upon, we will be on one accord with God when He tells us which play we need to use. God says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge..." (Hos. 4:6) Satan is not an amateur, so we have to stop treating him like one. That is why we continue to be defeated. We have a choice to make: continue to walk in defeat or be a winner. In order to be a pro, we must train like a pro. Whatever it is that we are dealing with, we have to learn to go to our Master's Playbook and see how the pro's made it through. I hope you enjoyed reading the word of God in a new light. Have a Happy Wednesday! God Bless, Min. Tommy & Sis.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. |
