Don’t just sit there

God uses His power not to interrupt free choice but to turn evil for good.  He uses the tribulation of the world and the temptations of the devil all for good. We know all things work together for good to them that are called but does that mean we just accept them all blindly? No, we don’t just accept it or give in to it.  Joseph didn’t say well it Gods will for me to be in prison forever so here so I won’t take any opportunity to get out.  When the apostles ended up in prisons they didn’t say it is the will of God, no they prayed till there was an earthquake. When troubles come or we lose our job, we don’t say Que - sera sera - instead, God wants us to rise up in faith and trust Him for the new job. Sometimes you have to fight the devil off.   This builds our character, forges perseverance, opens our understanding and grows us into the mighty image of Christ.

Friend,  if the enemy is seeing to depress you or sap your strength, rise and fight him off by declaring God goodness and His promises.
