If the enemy can overwhelm you, trust me, he will. He’ll attack you from all sides and in every area of your life if he has the chance. His tactic is to run you empty with attack after attack and make you feel there is no way you can overcome. What he won’t tell you is that it’s all an illusion. Not only can you win, but through Christ, you already have. Jesus has already defeated the enemy, and the enemy knows his days are numbered. In Christ, however, the victory is already yours.
The ultimate goal of every attack from the enemy is to stifle your faith because faith in God is his greatest weakness. Faith moves mountains and can overcome any attack. The only thing that impressed Jesus during his ministry here on earth was not someone’s status or wealth, but their faith. 1 John 5:4 tells us:
“For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” (1 John 5:4 ESV)
No matter how great the attack, never forget your God is greater. Keep hoping, keep believing, and keep the faith. Today, I encourage you to place your faith in God and know that you are victorious in Him when attacks come.
Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for covering and protecting me when attacks come. When I feel defeated, thank You for reminding me that I always win when I have faith in You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
