COUNTERATTACK

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

1-3The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

Chaos. Unrest. Confusion. It is all around.

Are you dreading what is around the corner? Or when is the next shoe going to fall? Fearful that the next encounter will be just another disappointment?

Are you anxious about today?

I know some of you are.  I know many of you have been for a few weeks now.

I fear that some of you are sure a bad day is right outside the door or you are thinking to yourself what “surprise”, what message of bad news, what unexpected punch to the gut is lurking.

The question is, are you going to stand there and “take it” or would you rather counterpunch that chaos?

Come on! You can!

Start with this little jab…

Jesus said “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. (John 14:1)

And this too!

John 14:27 (NLV)

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Anxiety trying to take its swing?

Duck!

Philippians 4:6-7 (ERV)

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace…

Got worry attempting a sneaky attack?

“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.” ― Corrie ten Boom

So don’t let it drain you!

Fearful?

Let the SPIRIT coach you!

2 Timothy 1:7 (NLV)

For God did not give us a spirit of fear. He gave us a spirit of power and of love and of a good mind.

My friends the enemy can and will fight with all of the chaos, anxiety, worry and fear he can muster.  It is his JOB!

But you don’t have to stand there and take it!

You have access to the truth and in the face of TRUTH the enemy CAN’T stand!

"In any emergency in life there is nothing so strong and safe as the simple truth." --Charles Dickens

So get off your heels!

Truth arms your counterattack. So calm the chaos, ax the anxiety, flummoxed the fears with it!

Jesus said…

John 8:31,32 (MSG)

If you stick with this, living out what I tell you, …Then you will experience for yourselves the truth, and the truth will free you.

Take on your day!

I love you all

Have a blessed weekend.
