1 Peter 4:12
“Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.”
2 Cor 4:
7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. 12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
When we attempt to "level up" and become the best version of ourselves, we are going to face opposition. When we attempt to center ourselves in the Lord's Will, we will face opposition. If you find yourselves not feeling quite right but you are not sick. If you have this sense that you are hard pressed on every side, etc, it's just spiritual war.
The Lord said do not be surprised by the opposition, it is just part of the process. We beloved, are going to do what we were sent here to do. We will fulfill our Divine mission on earth. We will level up into the very best versions of ourselves, centered in the Lord's Will. This stuff is going to happen. Todays post was to make some of you aware, that the trials and tribulations you are currently going through, many of them "unexplainable" because you cant quite put your finger on exactly is not quite right. It's just spiritual war. We must become comfortable being slightly uncomfortable. It's part of the process. Growth always requires some form or fashion of discomfort.
Our eyes are fixed on Jesus. He is on the throne in our lives. We seek first His Kingdom, His Glory and His Righteousness. We operate in faith, hope, love, joy and peace. Most of all, we love. Another Feast of Trumpets has passed without the Lord's return, that does not mean He cannot return today. We operate as if He could return any day because He can. Or we can "graduate" off this earth at any moment and be face to Face with Him. Either way we need to be watching and ready which means eyes on Him on a daily basis.
Todays note was to encourage you to continue to fight the good fight of faith (and it is a fight), and to remind you that we are dearly loved children of the Most High God :).
