“The Testing”

The blood that covers me. The blood that makes my enemies be still. The blood that washes my sins away. The blood that speaks on my behalf. The blood that shows and proves. The blood that protects. The blood that hides me when the world seem like it’s throwing everything at you at once. Know that God shall prevail! You just have to stand in his word and trust and believe that he is turning it around in your favor! 

Did you ever get so mad when someone said something to you that really pressed your buttons? Or just down right disrespected you? You want to yell, sometimes even fight. But in reality You should be mad at yourself for allowing them to have that much affect on you. You are a child of a royal King, and you should act as such. I know that it is easier said than done sometimes; and you are only human. But, with constant prayer, and self discipline it is possible. Did you ever think about why you are going through certain things, and why God is allowing it to happen? What have you been asking God for? Are you prepared? What if all those times you got angry and spaced out, it was God’s way of testing you? Only seeing if you would be ready, fully equipped for the next chapter in your life. So, you fail the test and he holds off on that thing you being praying for. You become frustrated and you start to doubt God for not giving you what you’ve been praying for. But, all along you just aren’t ready. Why don’t you start praying in a different way. Ask him to give you discernment, strength, and self control. And ask him to make your feet, and tongue slow towards anger. But, allowing yourself to pause before you react. Not giving the enemy what he wanted all along. When you are trying to do better; and actually is. Then the enemy steps in to disrupt your process. Don’t give anyone the satisfaction to Delight in your struggle. Walk away. Take a walk. Take a pause, and allow God to speak through you. I’m going to pray this with you all as well because Lord knows I have been tested lately! We will get right together. Say this prayer with me.

Thank you God for allowing me to understand when I have to take a step back and reevaluate my situation, my surroundings. I know I will not be strong all of the time, so I will need your help each and everyday. Helping me to discern when the enemy wants to knock me off of my journey. I ask that you protect me from my enemies. I ask that you allow love to flow from me no matter what situation I’m in. I thank you for your love and your mercy. In Jesus Name I pray! Amen.
