that goes on daily in the spirit realm. If, in this life, we could
peel back the curtain that separates the physical realm and
the supernatural world, what a shock it would be to see heavenly
angels warring fallen angels and demonic spirits from hell
for the safety of our souls.That fight is for our peace of mind,
our hope in future eternity, our financial stability, our marriages and
family integrity, our health, and most importantly, our salvation.
We would have a better picture of the battle that has been going
on since the day of Lucifer's fall from Heaven.
God woos us to Himself until we see our need for His salvation.
He never gives up on us and His Word is living proof. False prophets
(soothsayers, psychics, astrologers, and tarot card readers) say
they can tell us our future but that is a lie. Satan doesn't have any
idea what the future holds except that he has no future but eternity
in Hades or the bottomless pit. He doesn't even know when Christ
will return. His knowledge in his future is limited by his sinful rebellious
ways.
Lucifer can only interfere with present and use past eternity to confuse
us concerning our future hope. Any attempt, by Satan
and his cohorts,to tell you your future is based on
supposition and false prophecy. Only God is all seeing
and all knowing. Satan isn't a god; he's a fallen angel who
wanted to be a god. Satan has no knowledge of the future
except that his own end in coming eternity will happen
in the greatest battle of Armageddon when Christ returns
to reestablish a new Jerusalem and he knows his punishment
for his unpardonable sin--blaspheme against the God
of the very God. Satan wanted to dethrone God for his
own selfish, narcissistic reason seeing himself better
than Jehovah God.
So, let's put the lie from the false prophet, Satan, aside for now and
get started on this amazing journey of finding victory for living each day
standing on a firm foundation--God's Living Word.
David and others who authored the Psalms actually put
together prayers for any situation and circumstance.
David allowed God to see his heart in his prayers and
his confessions. Today, these prayers, songs, and
hymns are for us to use for the same purposes as David.
Those purposes may include, but not be limited to,
the following.
- Praise and adoration of our Heavenly Father
- Repentance and forgiveness
- Thanksgiving
- Supplication
- Restoration and healing
- Power found in the fruit of the Spirit
- Protection found in preparation for battle
- Music to soothe you & lift up the name of Jesus
to know I am okay. My ups and downs are normal behavior
and I can still please God with my life. His unconditional love makes this possible. His constant presence in my life is the
hope I hold onto when storms come. He is ever-present for
me when I am full of joy. Jesus calms my storms or gives me
the courage to get out of the boat and walk toward the
anchor Himself.
