The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10:10
The enemy comes to distract us from our calling. We were created in God's image to glorify Him. When you are being tempted, tested, and tried, just know where it is coming from and why. When you understand his purpose, you can gain understanding and you will no longer react to it. The enemy is an instigator, plain and simple, and what were we taught to do with instigators? Ignore them and they will go flee. Call upon the name of Jesus and they do flee. (James 4:7) We have all authority over the enemy so do not fear. Stand on the rock of truth. (Ephesians 6:13) Continue to be at peace and at rest and continue to spread the good news to all you meet. Be bold in knowing you are the victor and trust in the Lord to do the rest. The battle has already been won!
