He Gets the Last Word!
1Peter5:8-11 (The Message)
8-11.Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would like nothing better than to catch you napping. Keep your guard up. You're not the only ones plunged into these hard times. It's the same with Christians all over the world. So keep a firm grip on the faith. The suffering won't last forever. It won't be long before this generous God who has great plans for us in Christ—eternal and glorious plans they are!—will have you put together and on your feet for good. He gets the last word; yes, he does.
Keeping a cool head and staying alert! Sounds really good but it has been really hard for me this week to do this. Seems like everyone I have talked to has been attacked from every angle. The enemy is truly at work trying to kill, steal and destroy us for sure. My sweet friend it is time for us to step up to another level of intercessory prayer. We must pray and hold each other up! There are times when I am so thankful someone is praying for me, because I can't. I just don't have the strength. Do you experience this also? As we remember this day and keep it Holy as our Lord instructs us to, let's remember to stand firm! God does have plans for us and He will never leave us. I am praying for you, please pray for me to!

Beautiful reminder and encouragement. I am praying right now!
Yes. Satan is really on the attack.
I think God is calling all of us, especially now, to be alert and aware of his tactics. Let's put on
"the full armour" and stand firm in our faith this week. In the name of Jesus, in His precious body and blood, we cast out Satan and all his works. AMEN.
Satan knows his time is short and he is attacking the children of God with full force, BUT our strength and hope is in our God, our Savior and the precious Holy Ghost. Yes, prayer is of the utmost importance, above all else.
Your post today is very "real." I love the Scripture from the Message. Thank you.
I think that we all need someone praying for us. This is a great~great post,thank-you.
Blessings,
