Hey Pilgrims - I'm at work right now - accessing this in the public library in our building as I can't be at my desk - IT blocks access to stuff like this. Anyway, if anyone sees this comment - please lift me in prayer - once again I am finding my mind going to places that it shouldn't go! Very negative and this battle causes me so much weariness. This has been going on and on for the last year - one day is good, one day is bad - today is a bad day - lots of "noise" from the enemy in my mind - "you aren't good enough. God doesn't hear you...He'll never answer that prayer because you have sinned again and again...etc etc....Ahhhhhh, I just want to scream....stop it - God won't you please chase the devil away!!!Julie

Got your S.O.S. and I'm praying! Be strong in His mighty power. You are covered by His feathers and our prayers.
In His love,
David
Julie - the Lord hasen't left U , all the devil has is whispers , thats all - and if he is whispering , its allowed of God - and God said HE would not let any trial be so great as to U not being able to handle it - ANYTHING FROM THE devil IS A LIE - so nothing to worry about , - U take HIS WORD , HIS PROMISES, HIS OATH, and declare that daily , hourly and smile - that will eventually chase the devil away - Julie, its not the "highs" of a good service at Kanata Weslyan that keep a person - its the PROMISE OF GOD, U know that - solid , steady, RESOLVED - U have drawn a line in the sand and this is where U will stand -FOR GOD and U are HIS CHILD - devil has NOTHING ON U -
The trial of your faith is most precious by the LORD - U have a "heart" for the Lord and so these attacks come at U - happens to EVERY CHRISTIAN THAT WANTS TO BE USED BY GOD --- ok now - SOLID, STEADY, RESOLVED AND COMMITTED TO GOD - no room for the devil - SPEAK THE WORD and BELIEVE HIM --
am praying now for U -- U will be OK - Julie, thoughts come and go - its all the devil has -- TRUSTING JESUS -- Julie , will U do this ?
will U trust Jesus to KEEP U -- don't U trust yourself to keep yourself for the Lord - LET HIM DO THE KEEPING -- HE IS GOOD AT THAT
1 Cor 10:13...There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.(KJV)
Thought you might find taht verse ecnouraging...it has helped me a lot through some tough years...
Praying for you daily,

Dear Julie,
The only thing that will serve you well at such times is God's word:
"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." - Phil 4:8
"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."
Don't you dare give in to the enemy...he must be defeated. Indeed he already was defeated 2,000 years ago when died on the cross and rose again. Julie...don't live in defeat when Christ died so that you might be freed. When the enemy tell you lies...you do what Jesus did...remind him of God's word.
Stay strong in the Lord alone. Don't rest in your own strength.
Blessings to you...Susan
