Stay strong no matter what

Sometimes keeping the faith is a hard thing to do.  It seems like when you are doing everything that you know to be the right thing that that is the time that the devil will hop on your back and ride you like there is no tomorrow.  The hardest thing sometimes to remember is that he is only doing his job and it is important that you keep your eyes focused on God and do your job of trusting in the power and blood of Jesus to protect you. The really bad part is when the devil uses family members to fight against you. Just remember it is not that person it is the spirt inside of them. As the Bible says, We battle not against flesh and blood but, against princeapalities in the air. When it is someone close to you that is hard to do. Sometimes it is hard to do when it is a stanger. For me it is hard to do with friends and or family members because I have had to battle with rejection and a spirt of unwantedness due to my biological father and his family.  Still to this day the devil does try to use this against me and sometimes I have to admit that I do fall into his traps but, it is not as bad as it was and now at least I know what it is and I can get the prayer I need to get out of the trap.  Will I ever be perfect? Nope not until I get to Heaven.  Everyone has flaws and if we could just remember that then maybe we wouldn't be so had on each other.   As Christians I think we are harder on each other because we expect that since we are Christians that we should be perfect but, that is just not the case. Yes some Christians are farther along than others but, that doesn't mean they are any better than the other person because they still have junk that they are other coming.   When a Christian feels that they have made it to perfection that is when they are truly believing a lie because no one can be perfect.  There was only one perfect person on earth and that was Jesus.  It gets easier to spot the pitfalls and traps that the devil sets up but please continue to be on gaurd he is not stupid he will think of new things to trip you up. He will use your family against you, even your spouse.  Sometimes not everything is as it seems. May God bless the reader of this blog. Stay strong and keep fighting for your soul stay strong and never let go of God's hand.
