Does Satan constantly remind you of all your mistakes?
Does he introduce thoughts like, “How could God possibly love me? I have messed up too much for God to love me.”
Beloved, we are at war!
Satan is constantly seeking to undermine our faith in God’s love for us because he knows it’s his way into our lives with fear.
Fear and love cannot co-exist, so if he gains a foothold in our lives through fear, he knows we won’t be bearing the fruit of love, and he has the advantage over us.
Satan hates God, but he can’t directly attack God, so his primary goal is to take as any people to hell with him as possible.
But, just because we get saved, it doesn’t mean that Satan ignores us.
No indeed, we get a target painted on our backs.
Satan’s goal is to keep us walking in our flesh, so that the fruit of the Spirit doesn’t grow in our lives.
He has many strategies to accomplish this.
He wants us to view God’s love through our circumstances.
If life is pain free and easy, then God loves me; if life is hard and painful, then God doesn’t love me and can’t be trusted.
Remember, the proof of God’s love is simply the cross. That’s it!
We need to learn to remain or abide in His love, so that when hardship comes,… and it will… we can be of good cheer, because Jesus has overcome the world.
Paul tells us that there is no evil angelic power or painful circumstance, not even death, can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.
The more this reality takes root and grows in our lives, the more free we will be from fear or any other strategy Satan can muster against our faith.
The storms can rage, but like Jesus, we can sleep knowing that Father holds us securely in His hands.
Beloved, nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus…. Nothing!
Believe this! Rest in this!
Enjoy His great love for you!
Blessings!
