Yesterday morning I woke up and I had one of "those" mornings. The picture above describes what my day was like before I even got out of bed. I had a bad dream about a situation I am going through right now and it put me in a funk first thing. I needed to shake it. So, God in His faithfulness, gave me a verse that I just kept repeating in my head:
James 4:7-8
"Resist the devil and he will flee from you."
As I sat down for my quiet time with the Lord, I decided to read this verse (and the next verse) and claim them. A song that had played the day before during my quiet time on the radio had played again. Just what I needed to claim.
By the time I left for work, God had answered my prayers and the devil had fled. It was such a beautiful thing because although the devil had a "place" where he could have wedged himself in, God was bigger, stronger and more powerful than him.
Where do you need to "resist the devil" today?
