Resist the Enemy Devotional (Word from the Lord series)
by Marijo Phelps Resist the enemy and he will flee from you. Your strength comes from Jesus in you. If your spirit is willing but your flesh is weak, stand on My promises. Be not a stumbling block to anyone but lean on Me for your every need and share your sufficiency with those I open your eyes to see. Daughter, many have needs which go so far beyond what you feel your needs are at this moment. Look to their needs, and share your answer, Jesus, your Lord. I will be your sufficiency, your victory, your loved ones' doorway to eternal life. Resist the enemy and he must flee in Jesus name. Bring your flesh into subjection. Hold out and hold on time is so short that it won't be long at all. I am coming back for my spotless bride. You feel pressure to get ready for the wedding. Do not allow yourself to be distracted. Look to my Word. Look up to the soon returning Son. He will lead you through so you might bring others with you on that celebration day. James 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (NIV) 1 Peter 5:9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. (NIV) John 14:28 "You heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. (NIV) 2 Peter 3:14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. (NIV) Prayer : Help me not to look at my very circumstances, oh Lord, but to look up to you and your perspective I pray. How would you have me respond, my Jesus?
