Just Breathe

Don’t let your worries lead you to Satan instead of Jesus. When I find myself worrying about something, I am often tempted to entertain those thoughts. It is a battle I have to continually fight. Thankfully, God promises that He is there for us, because I know I can’t do this on my own. It can be overwhelming and the only way is to rely on Jesus. Stop, pray for Him to intervene on your behalf, pray for protection, pray the promises that He gives us in His Word. Speak those promises over you and others. Rebuke Satan, in Jesus Name. Even the archangel Gabriel spoke ”The Lord Rebuke You”, when battling Satan.

I know I would be completely lost without the saving grace of Our Lord Jesus. I still have to fight battles, but they aren’t on my own. So stop, breathe, and pray for help. Doing this throughout my day helps me go to Jesus instead of Satan.

So right now, if you can:  take some deep breaths, focus on God, and ask for guidance. Next step is very hard and something I struggle with: Listen. Don’t talk, just wait and listen for God’s still voice.

“and after the earthquake a fire; but Jehovah was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?”
