14 then your heart be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, 15 who led you through the great and terrifying wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, who brought you water out of the flinty rock, 16 who fed you in the wilderness with manna that your fathers did not know, that he might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end. ~ Deuteronomy 8:14
Life is filled with hardships and tribulations. It’s filled with obstacles and walls. Life is always an uphill battle, but don’t let the devil use these things against you. Satan is the Father of Lies. He’ll use any situation that we go through in order to convince you that God doesn’t love or want you, but this isn’t the Truth. Do not let Satan, that old devil, convince you that you’re going through hardships because God hates you. Don’t let him persuade you that God has forgotten you because you just got laid off. Or that those fiery serpents and scorpions are snapping at your heels and are blocking your way because God wants to see you struggle. Do what you’re supposed to do.
Continue to pray, seek, and worship Him. Continue to offer thank-offerings. Don’t get caught up in lies. Don’t let the devil steal your dreams or your blessings—stand firm on the promises of God and all that He has done for you. Never let the devil steal your thanksgiving and your gratefulness. Give thanks to the LORD even in times of trouble, for He is good.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Continue To Give Thanks.
