We have all been attacked by Sneak Attacks, they come when you least expect them, a curve ball one might say. An example would be you are driving home full of energy, and then suddenly you are sleepy. You ask yourself, why am I so sleepy, Sneak Attack! When we are strong and we see the enemy coming we can stop it, but what happens when it comes in like a thief in the night? We handle those times different and often times don’t understand what is going on. We must learn to recognize all attacks and continuously stay in prayer. We must allow the Lord to be our Shepherd, guiding us, keeping us safe and restoring our soul. Meditate on the profound powers of his word, like Psalm 23: The LORD is my SHEPHERD; I shall not WANT. He makes me to lie down in GREEN PASTURES; He leads me beside the still waters He restores my soul. He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. YEA THOUGH I WALK THROUGHTHE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL; FOR YOU ARE WITH ME YOUR ROD AND YOUR STAFF, THEY COMFORT ME. YOU PREPARE A TABLE BEFORE ME IN THE PRESENCE OF MY ENEMIES; YOUANOINT MY HEAD WITH OIL; MY CUP RUNS OVER. SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE; AND I WILL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD FOREVER.
Now take the time to go line by line and truly understand this Psalm! Ask yourself what is a Shepherd and why is it important for me to have a Shepherd or guide? What would Green Pasture look like or still waters. Where do you need restoring and what does a righteous path look like? Continue to ask and answer this important question in your life and you will see the power of the word of God take hold and break some strong holds. Prepare you self to handle all attacks big and small and surround yourself with praying friends to help you out. Be sure to leave a post, you testimonies will help someone else.
I would like to thank God for a Praying mother, Walt Disney for making the movie “Meet The Robinson” and last but defiantly not Least Mr. and Mrs. Harrison of The Career Engineers for being prayer warriors. Help comes from many places and for all the places and people who have helped me over the years, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
