We all have an adversary who continually reminds us that we are not perfect. When we decide to live our life for God and begin to renew our minds by living by Godly principals, there will be times that we fall short. God knows that and unfortunately, the devil knows that also. God tries to encourage us that we can be what He has called us to be, and at the same time Satan wants to tell us why we can’t. We can be going along, serving God, doing good, stepping out in faith and then all of a sudden, without any obvious justification for it, we’ll have a day or week when we experience an attack in our minds. Satan will tell us that we’re failures, that we’re not good enough, that God doesn’t love us, the list goes on and on. Thankfully, God’s Word tells us just what to do in a situation like this. (2 Corinthians 10:5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.) So when the devil tries to lie to you, go to the Word and find the truth that refutes that lie. When those doubts come your way, don’t get discouraged. Bring them in line with God’s Word. It works every time. When we compare our thoughts with God’s Word, we find what truth really is. You will find the confidence to step out for God. Pastor Don
