Satan

So I spoke at FCA this morning.... my how I am not a good FCA speaker. I don't know if I am just not funny, have I ran out of stories, do I try to do to much scripture study ( i spoke out of Leviticus- that probably didn't help), or maybe it's just not me. Regardless, when I am asked to speak I still say yes. Don't get me wrong I enjoy it but I just feel defeated afterwards.

Defeated. A word that should not even be in the Christian vocabulary. However, satan has continued to draw this language out of me. I don't really talk much about satan so I am having to learn the power of evil in the world and against my life. I guess I avoid the heaven-hell talk but I am learning to recognize that this attack is real. Satan is against anything that isn't of this world and as i live in it and not of it I must realize that this attack is at me just as much of the whole of the Christian community.

I don't think I will start preaching satan anytime soon but I am going to work on battling against the evil works of satan. I was not made perfect and nor are my talks but I represent God who is. Any attack against me is an attack against God.

Lord, help me to be strong for you and not allow any evil to grip your kingdom through my life. I trust you to do more with my efforts then what i could ever do. Help me to stepdown to allow the fire of the Lord bring joy and worship (Lev 9).
