Not Ready to Fight
God knows that Satan is going to be loosed on the earth for his last hour, and the Lord wants well-trained warriors, so right now he is preparing his people through crisis training!

God is seeking those people who are greedy for his blessings and presence, not to use it to benefit themselves but to be used by him to help others!
The only hold the devil can have on God’s children is fear. Each one of us must shake it off in the faith and trust in our heavenly Father’s power and goodness.
Believers should ask God to reset our thoughts and actions to be in harmony with the Lord’s heart. May our words bring peace, order and good health to the lives we influence.
When you set your heart to walk blameless before God and to please him, you will be feared and despised by those who have lost his favor and blessing. Lukewarm or compromised Christians will be absolutely disturbed and repelled by your life.
We see this vividly illustrated in 1 Samuel. “Now Saul was afraid of David, because the Lord was with him, but had departed from Saul... And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him. Therefore, when Saul saw that he behaved very wisely, he was afraid of him” (1 Samuel 18:12-15, NKJV).
God gives the righteous a good name so they can use it to glorify him in greater measure, so we should seek to be known by an exemplary life so it glorifies God.
Paul was always mindful that God was watching him and checking his motives, and he gives us three examples of what a blameless believer’s life looks like.
What distinguishes the blameless walk of God’s people from those who have backslidden is a consuming desire to honor the name of Jesus before all people.
Every person battles fear, even the bravest and strongest among us. We must regularly return to the care of the Lord whose strength is made perfect in our weakness.
When you come to Jesus, you cannot make up anything to him. He makes it all up to you because that is who he is as a generous and gracious God.
