OVERWHELMED BY LOVE

When Jesus opened the eyes of a blind man, he could at first not see the people clearly.

But then Christ cleared his vision and he could see clearly.

Sometimes when we're under attack we tend to focus on what's seen and forget that we as Christians are fighting in two places at the same time; the seen and the unseen world.

And while we may see the battlefield here we may see passed the real schemes of the devil.

But the Holy Spirit of God opens our eyes as we seek Him for advice and guidance and shows us the grant plan of the devil.

Since the beginning of time the devil has been on the road to destroy Gods plan to save all people.

That's why he let Herod kill all babies when Christ was born.

Herod was only worried about his own earthly throne, but the devil was worried about his spiritual throne he had on earth and planned to ruin God's whole saving mission for mankind.

So this was clearly a battle in the seen and unseen world.
But God is always in controll of whatever the devil wants to do.

God warned Joseph and the wise men in a dream and the plans of the devil were twarthed.

So guess what, Christ did deliver us out of the power of the devil and gave us dominion over all that he had taken from Adam and Eve.

Our life

I know life often seems to overwhelm us with it's daily battles and worries, but Christ warned us not to let this happen and keep our vision clear to see His grant plan and the plans of the devil clearly.

My eyes have been opened through many hours on my knees in prayer, in tongues ( the language of the Holy Spirit) and just prayer with the mind and heart.

And I have come to see the diabolical plans the devil wanted to accomplish through a certain situation that seemingly seemed like and attack on myself only.

But in reality it is an attack to thwarth God's grant saving work in totality.

Oh I just feel so shocked by this revelation. It sents chills down my spine.

But glory to God especially this Christmas! He has revealed it to me and God's saving plan will not be twarthed by any plan of the devil.

How can you and I always walk in this clear vision?

The answer is we should not let situations overwhelm us and blind us to not see clearly, and think that attacks are only limited to us personally.

Satan is not interrested in destroying us but the work of God in totality and Gods work in and through us.

We should walk in the love of Christ, for when we do He will always step in and guide us to victory.

As we surrender our hearts to Him, His love will overwhelm us and cause us to see things clearly.

His love is light and where there is light darkness will not accomplish it's evil plans.

In anger we should not sin but hold our peace

King David had almost been overwhelmed by his own self pity when he was wronged by Nabal.

And he was planning to destroy the house of Nabal.

But then Abigail, Nabal's wife opened his eyes to see that he was not fighting Nabal but his own destiny and the grant destiny God had for His people and for all the people of the world since Christ was a descendant of him.

When he opened his heart to the guidance of the light of Gods love, love overcame the plans of the devil once again to twarth Gods saving work for the world.

Through all time since the beginning of creation God's work is under attack in the seen and unseen world.

God however is more than able to turn our hearts towards seeing clearly in His light of love as we come to Him in meekness.

He saved His plans to save all people through Christ through all times and will continue to do so as we participate to be open to His guidance like the saints before us, who were warned through dreams and visions, adviced by God fearing people like Abigail and so on.

It feels good to see clearly and love with a love that surpasses understanding.

Blessings and love in Christ,
