Put on the whole armour of God

Today I had an interesting day. It seemed that the enemy was coming at me from all directions. Everything got on my last nerve and it seemed I could not find any peace. As a matter of fact after one thing happened, the next thing would happen. My supervisor/manager approached me several times today about issues that were completely out of my control to change, but I had to take the responsibility for the wrongs that were done. It seemed that I could not get away from being blamed for every little thing that happened. I became irritated, frustrated, and angry. I even swore that I would leave the job for good (I still intend to). Then I realized, the reason everything seemed to irritate me was because I didn't pray long enough for God to shield me with his armor. You see I was easily upset by every little thing, why, because my feet were not shod with the preparation of the gospel of truth, my breast plat of righteousness was not fully on, my helmet of salvation was crocked, my belt of truth was unlooped, my shield of faith was damaged, and my sword was bent. My spiritual armor was not on properly and that caused the enemy to get in and attack me. You see, God was showing me that since my armor was not on, the enemy was able to get in. So of course I had to repent and ask God to restore my armor so I could be protected from the enemy. Friends don't for get to put your armor on, it's important and essential to your livelihood. I hope this blesses you and you will remember to put on the full armor of God everyday.

It's All About You

Yes, that's right, it is all about you. You have the ability to allow an issue, situation, or circumstance to destroy your joy or not. Your circumstances do not define you, what you are capable of, or what your future will be, YOU DO! It's up to you to keep your joy no matter what. The Joy of the Lord is your strength. Joy strengthens you at all times whether it's a sad, happy, or neutral time, your joy is what fuels you to the next level. Think of it like this a car needs fuel to operate right? So you need the joy of the Lord to remain strengthened and able to fight and defend yourself against the enemy. The devils only objective is to steal, kill, and destroy. He doesn't care who or what he uses to interrupt your blessings he only cares if his plan to steal from you succeeded. The only way he will succeed is if you allow him to take your joy. You have the ability to resist the devil and his antics. The word says resist the devil and he shall flee. He can only torment you if you allow it. Continue to resist the devil and you will see he has no power against the Joy of the Lord that rest rules and abides inside of you. Take back what rightfully belongs to you. You are a child of the most high God so you have the right to maintain and receive every blessing, promise, and all the abundance that belongs to you. Remember it's all about you. You have the power to speak to your situation and cause it to change through your words and actions. Don't take your power and strength for granted use it to overcome and remain blessed.
