Defeating The Lies Of The Enemy
We have thousands of thoughts each and every day. Yet God commands us to take EVERY thought captive. So pay attention to what you are thinking and decide if those thoughts are in agreement with what God tells us in His Word.
The enemy will say “You’re sick and sickly.” But the Scriptures says: 1 Peter 2:24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Satan will tell you: “You are poor.” God’s Word tells me: Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
The enemy tells you “Oh, You are so sad.” Psalm 30:5 says that weeping may endure for a night, but I know joy is coming in the morning.
The enemy reminds you that you are hopeless. You are thinking: “Nothing good ever happens to me.” Break those chains of despair!
Zechariah 9:12 Return to your fortress, you prisoners of hope; even now I announce that I will restore twice as much to you.
Enemy: “You and your family will amount to nothing.” Really? I have a better report from the Word. It says “as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
The Scripture says, “We walk by faith and not by sight.” That means we don’t have to see it to believe it. It’s just the opposite. If we believe it, then we see it.
The enemy says you will not have. You declare and pray: “Lord, You said no good thing will You withhold, because I walk uprightly. And I believe even right now You are arranging things in my favor.”
Remember, God is in complete control. So be a prisoner of hope instead of despair. Get up each day expecting His favor.
