satan is a very crafty being and is very good at what he does. I'm so thankful that he was defeated on the cross.
I want to remind you guys of Ephesians 6:12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
I was talking to somebody the other day and the person said something that highly offended me. I was in shock, I could not believe that they just said that to me. Anyways I tried to just blow it off but my mind was already wrapped around their comment. It effected the way I worshiped, the way I communicated, the way I thought. But then I realized that satan is a pretty crafty being. he used this person to try to break me down to hinder my leadership and my ministry.
I have just broke through a long drawn out spiritual battle that went on for over a month and for the last two weeks I have been living in the freedom from that battle and I dang sure am not getting wrapped back up in one just because satan tries to be sneaky. (I about did though)
What I'm saying is, that you will come in contact with people for the rest of your life and sometimes they might say things to you that might hurt your feelings or offend you or what ever. Just remember that satan is at work through everyone and he will try to use anyone, but it is not a war against each other but rather against the devil.
(I know I did not capitalize the word satan or words that referenced him, but he's a flippin punk and does not deserve it.)
