Joshua 1:9 (NKJV) 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
There are a lot of intimidating people and situations in this world that we may have to deal with from time to time, and it’s not always easy. Sometimes we will find ourselves panicking because we are not sure what steps to take in handling it properly.
When we panic it causes us to become stressed and anxious. It can exhaust us to the point where we are tired and we may even get depressed. We are worn out and can’t do a thing. We feel we have lost control.
The enemy loves when we reach this point. He thinks he has us eating out of the palm of his hand. This is how he tries to defeat us, as long as we follow along.
As soon as we begin to feel stress and anxiety trying to kick in and take over, that is when we need to be strong, not be afraid, and do our best to resist it. How? We stop letting it control us, and we realize where the attack is coming from. And we say NO!
James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
The quicker we pick up on the attack against us, the better our days will be. We can’t let the enemy defeat us.
Be strong, rebuke him in Jesus’ name and enjoy your day. God is with you!
