i hate satan.

question of the day: jesus came so we might have life and life abundantly so what are we waiting for? check out joshua's question to the israelites: “so joshua said to the sons of israel, ‘how long will you put off entering to take possession of the land which the lord, the god of your fathers, has given you?’” (josh. 18:3)

so i have decided that i absolutetly hate satan and am done letting him have space in my life. so done. he has absolutely no right to have any occupancy so why have i been letting him? he is a defeated foe, and it is high time that i start acting like that is the case. life could be so much better, so much more worth living if i walked in the victory that belongs to me courtesy of jesus' death and resurrection. what is stopping me? lack of faith? fear? lack of perseverance? whatever the case may be, it's time to be done with that. done! today is a new day. his mercies are new EVERY morning. time to start living like the warrior princess i am in jesus. :-)

check out these verses:
romans 8:37
"in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."

2 corinthians 10:3-5
“for though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. we are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of god, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of christ.”

james 4:7-8
“submit therefore to god, resist the devil and he will flee from you. draw near to god and he will draw near to you. cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”

oh man. lord god, you are so good. so good. thank you for who you are and what you have done. thank you that you have given us everything that we need for life and godliness. praise you for your patience and endurance. thank you that you don't give up on us. you are good, god. please help me to persevere and not give up. i need endurance. you are able, lord. your will...
