Daily Devotion for August 23, 2021

Somebody needs to hear this!
In the parable of the Lost Sheep, Jesus leaves the 99 to go rescue the lost one. We often talk about the lost one, but let me share about the 99. Just like Jesus goes after the one to rescue, satan will “try to” go after the 99 to attack! Know that we as Believers go through some things that non-Believers go through (death of loved ones, rejection, lied on, sickness, loss of job, etc). The difference between us as Believers going through versus a non-Believer is… WE GOT THE INDWELLING of the Holy Spirit to help us, guide us, protect us, provide for us. etc. Don’t ever feel discouraged, think that God doesn’t love you or He’s punishing you when you face life’s difficulties. Some things are just a part of life. But even when the devil “tries to” attack, NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST YOU SHALL PROSPER! That doesn’t mean that the weapons won’t appear, but it means that it WON’T make it’s intended target. You don’t have to fight for victory, you’re fighting in victory! Remember, in the midst of the storms of life, JESUS IS OUR SHELTER! #Weeping May Endure for a Night, BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING! Be blessed! #brotherprater
