Romans 16:20

The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. Now, who would like to wrestle with the devil? Any takers?

Like the prophet Jeremiah, we never run out of excuses to God. After all, we are only a "child" so to speak, and a child is fed milk and all these soft chewables that is pleasing to the taste.

Yet God never intended for us to remain a child. You were born to be a mighty warrior in His army!
But the choice is up to you.
Would you stay in your comfort zone? You have been there for the longest, and it doesn't make you any less 'Christian', does it?
Well you can stay like that by all means.
Or you can get hold of your sonship, your real identity, your heavenly citizenship, and start acting like ONE.

A notable preacher once said that like an army camp in a war zone, God's people should be wired and ready 24/7.
Believe me, the devils of hell never sleep while you compromise your Christianity. They never take a break while you choose to watch TV or be in Facebook instead of spending time with your Father. They roam to and fro, all over the earth, like a roaring lion that will seek you, really take you by surprise, and devour you (before you even know it!)
Will you let him trample you, instead of the other way around?
Or will you tell him that's enough, stand on your feet, put on your armor (the Armor of GOD in Ephesians 6:11-18), and crush him underneath your feet?
Afterall, GOD has equipped you, not only with a complete armor, but the wisdom on when to fight.*

Praise God for seasons in life. But we always get back up and refuse to be defeated, because our name is synonymous with victory through JESUS. And through our seasons, we learn lessons and know the difference between a victorious life and a barely-get-by.
I know the perfect (and only) place to gather your weapons. Find them at the feet of your Father - complete, not lacking, and more than state-of-the-art. Spend more time with Him and get to know His voice better!


If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world
can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for
another world. ~C.S. Lewis


*(In spiritual warfare, God's wisdom is vital. We can't just go surging against the enemy without God's go signal, especially in specific circumstances.)
