Life Just Got Real
Tuesday, July 16, 2019
The day in which circumstances sucked the life out of me plagued me a time or two. At those times, I felt life was playing a
horror movie on auto play in my mind and I was hitting pause with no pause in
sight. So many questions were screaming in my ear and I could not offer
any answers. I second guessed my purpose and wondered if anyone would notice if I
just disappeared.
Ephesians 6:11-12 reads “Put on the whole armour of God that ye
may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this
world, against spiritual wickedness in high places”. Therefore, at these
crucial times in our lives, if we have not properly prepared for a potential
battle we make bad decisions and choices. These bad choices and decisions can
lead to very detrimental circumstances. If we are honest with ourselves many of
us can admit going through a stage in which we did not properly prepare for
potential battles. During these times our line of defense have been infiltrated
and we became standing targets for an attack in which we lose our minds.
While many of us hope we never have to experience these times, it is inevitable
( 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as
some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should come to repentance). Arriving at our destined purpose is our
purpose and it’s the enemy’s occupation to make sure we get thrown off of our
trajectory to our God given destiny; however, we must stop giving “the enemy” a
platform by using it as an excuse for our situations. Let’s keep it Real! Some of
the battles we face we willingly invite in because we fell to adhere to the
warning signs given to us over and over again. Then we become complacent
with status quo until the battle is charging at us. Normally, complacency is the
calm before the storm.
I challenged you, before the next time “Life Gets Real” get prepared and put on the whole armour of
God.
