EVERY DAY

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:”

1 Peter 5:8 KJV

Evangelist Dr. Charles Weigle wrote a beautiful heart touching hymn “NO ONE EVER CARED FOR ME LIKE JESUS”.  It is so true.  No one ever cared for us like Jesus cares for us and no one ever will care for us like He cares for us.  He cares for us and loves us so much He died on the cross for our sins.

It makes satan very angry when we serve Jesus and satan will do everything he can do to discourage us so much we stop serving Jesus.  We must not let that happen!  We must stay on the battlefield for Jesus just as He stayed on the battlefield for us when He was here on His mission.

A pastor said in a sermon “If satan isn’t attacking you, then you probably haven’t done anything for Jesus that day”.  We need to realize that satan will attack us at our weakest place in our life.  I went through a devastating crippling depression for over forty years so satan attacks me in my emotions.

However, no matter how often satan attacks me, he will never win because Jesus defeated satan on the cross and Jesus will help me just as He will help you when satan attacks you.  May God help us to be faithful and serve Jesus even when satan attacks us and tells us Jesus doesn’t love us.
