Romans 8:28-29

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a]have been called according to his purpose.

What God intends for your good no man will be able to stop.  People are used every day by the enemy to distract, discourage and destroy God's children. The more you are working for the kingdom of God, the harder and more pressing the attacks.  It can be very very disheartening and draining. But we must rest in Him by reading His Word and knowing it in our hearts. Memorizing His words so when you feel an attack you are prepared and armed. The enemy does not know what to do with our peace so when he strikes for a reaction and we do not give him one, he will not stick around. We must rebuke his presence for his presence is very real and so are his demons who study and watch us to learn our ways in order to use them later against us. It is extremely important that we know this battle is going on all around us and not hide our heads in the sand. As strange as it is, I find comfort in the moments of attack because I know something great is planned for my life and he does not want me to reach it. My marriage was attacked from the moment we said our I Do's and we know it was to get us to give up on each other because he knew God called us to His ministry to do His work and he came to destroy our union for he foreknew we were going to do great things for God for His glory. When your church is attacked, your relationships, your friendships, your work, your ministry, or those around you...recognize what it is, do not react for he is looking for that but instead be proactive and rejoice in the Lord, pray yourself through your trial and never give up. I read when we are serving God in an area and are experiencing a lot of adversity, it means we are making a difference in the kingdom of God and the enemy is threatened by us. Now when we look at it from that point of view, doesn't it empower you? Good! It should for you hold all power over satan and his helpers. You are a righteous child of God who holds all authority. So don't fear it, embrace it and be bold because you are making a difference for God. Believe me, if you are not facing any challenges or tests in your work for God, I would question if you are serving where He wants you, are you in the right area? Ask Him and He will reveal it to you. We must never get complacent in our walk for God. And don't get mad at the person he is using against you, but pray for them for they do not know what they do. Just love and remain strong in Him and you will overcome and receive wondrous blessings on your life. God is worth it!
