John 10:10 (NKJV) The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
We have an enemy. He is the enemy of our souls. His one goal is to destroy us… to tear us to shreds if he can.
But, Jesus came to defeat that enemy once, for us all! And defeat him He did!
We want everyone to know today that we are not defeated. We are not here to live a downtrodden life full of disappointments, anger, bitterness and sorrow.
Yes, we all have things that come our way that will try to bring us down. It’s part of life. God never promised us a life with no trials or problems.
What He did promise us, though, is an assurance that no matter what comes our way, He is by our side. He has provided for us in everything, even before those hard times come.
There’s nothing better than victory God’s way! We always like to think we have everything figured out and we know how everything should go, but the truth is that we really know very little.
When God moves on our behalf, it will almost always be in a way that we would never have dreamed of ourselves. And there’s a reason for that. He wants us to know that He is God and He is in charge and in control.
Ponder on that over the weekend and smile, knowing that no matter what comes your way, God is in control and has provided abundant life for us. Reach out and grab hold of it today.
