Psalm 45:1 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

Married to persecution
I move forth in awe in my day-to-day walk with Christ, not because of what goes on in this world. My awe is due to the lack of understanding some Christians have once the have chosen to follow Christ. We are called to fight the Good fight of Faith, what this should tell us immediately is that their will be a fight, but the fight is fixed! We win! just know there is work and striving especially as we develope in our faith. There will come a time with the fight will be sweatless, but we must press for to experience the results of unshakeable faith! This battle is the Lord's we need only but walk it out, prepare are soul with the Word to stregnthen our inner-man.
It seems as if many Christians think that is will be a cake walk - -that the won't face opposition. When Truth is that once we chose to answer the call to Christ, was the day we married persecution. This is something that our Lord told us would come. Our Lord told us that the devil would use everone and anything he can to get us off course. He will use friends, family and even other christians who may be babes in Christ or in error, but we who are Spiritual should restore such a one, in the Spirit of meekness considering ourselves, or we may be tempted.
I feel it is important for us to know that we are at war with the devil not with the individual as the are only a tool that he is using rather it is due to their willful sin or ignorance the enemy remains the same--satan.
I feel the most important thing for us to remember is that He told us that He would be with us through it all and that we would be delivered from every attack. We have been Graced to come out Triumpant in every situation that the opposition(devil) sends our way. His Grace is Sufficient. We can't loose, we would have to choose to lay down, the devil has already been defeated and what he is doing-- roaring as a lion, is creating doubt in the believers mind of who we are! We ca't allow him, yes I said allow, as he can only do to us as Christians what we permit remind him of his eternal defeat and how he is beneath your feet and press forth in faith, knowing that all things have been given to us in Christ Jesus.
Know that with spiritual growth will come know fights and knew devils, always know that we have mastery over them through Christ and for those of us who know this, they will flee.
His Grace is sufficient ---understand that even though we married persecution -- We Reign in this life and in the one to come!
