There comes a time where life will see what we’re really made of. We will either remain in faith or fold under the pressure.
During these trying times, it’s the enemy’s job to make us feel down, depressed, and make us feel like there is no hope. The enemy will send thoughts in our mind that will magnify our current situation and will be contrary to the Word of God. The only way to combat these thoughts is by speaking the Word of God, however, we can’t speak what we don’t know. That’s why it’s so important to pray, feed our faith by hearing the Word of God, read our Bible, etc. These things don’t make us righteous but, it does prepare us for life’s tribulations.
If an athlete never trains, never eats properly, and never studies their sport, their performance will be poor for game day. It’s the same way with us. We have to do the necessary things to remain in faith and combat the attacks of the enemy.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.

I no sometimes when I feel like i’m the enemy is trying to come at me & i will ask myself why are everyone who i feel know me are treating me different like this is not who they say i’m. I begin to feel that this is a challenging test. I no that I want be able to take the test alone.
So I have to do what the word say to do.
God said in the book of Roman 14:11 he said every knee shall bow & every tongue shall confess.
& when I begin to feel ing depress, lonely & thinking out of the will of God. And not realzing that im giving the enemy room to travel into my mind. & God allow me to have a free will but he knows whst im going to do before I di it. & when I realizing that this is happen. I begin to quote scruiptes to myself. In John 10:10 The theif come to kill & destroy. And I no that God is able to do above & beyond on what I can do. He have nevrr lost a fight.
