The LORD Will Be My Light

Happy Friday ladies.  Thought I would share a prayer with you.  In case any of us are facing scary things today and the days to come let us remember the promises of God and not the bluff of the enemy.

“Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise, Though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light.” 

Micah 7:8

 The following is taken from the book

“When Godly People Do Ungodly Things”

by Beth Moore

When Satan comes back to taunt me, I replay the old tape with the new recording of God’s forgiveness and redemption on it. I have said to the accuser,

“You’re right about one thing only. I did commit that sin, but God has graciously forgiven me.  He has empowered me to live differently and even redeemed my mistakes.  He has used my past experiences to make me compassionate and merciful.  You cannot make unclean what my God has made clean. I’ve been to the cross and trusted Christ no only to save me from my sins but to cleanse my guilty conscience.  You’re too late, devil.  You no longer have grounds to torment me.  Your voice is strong and loud, but I refuse to believe you.  I believe God, and I will hold unswervingly to the work He has accomplished in me.”
