We're in revival at my church this week. Bro. James Scott has been preaching for us, and he is doing a GREAT job! Tonight he preached on letting God teach us the skill of being anointed. He talked about how the devil likes to trick us and sneak up on us and work his way in where he doesn't belong. How, if we're not careful, our whole relationship with God can be pulled out from under us. And it got me to thinking....
That's what I did. I didn't let God teach my the skill. I allowed the devil to trick me and deceive me the first chance he got. And it ruined me. I lost my whole relationship with God. For a while, I still had the "religion" but I didn't have the true relationship. Eventually, I even lost the "religion". I wasted a year and a half of my life on what? nothing. That was precious time I could have spent with God, time I could have dedicated to Him and grew in Him. And I hate it so bad. But I know that what's done is done. All I can do now is learn from it and move on. Remember how the devil tricked me the first time and beware and not let him do it again. I just have to "let it go" and keep on pressin' on.
I long for the relationship I with Him before. For the closeness and the daily fellowship I had. I am so very thankful He is giving me a
"Ye are of God, little children. and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." 1 John 4:4
So now, I'm doing what James 4:7 says, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
I just can't contain my joy and excitement for what the Lord is doing and is going to do in me!!
I AM SOOO EXCITED!!
