If God is for you....

Whether you believe it or not, everyone has at least one hater! Do I even have to mention the name?!? The enemy will constantly use people, things, and situations to keep us from receiving the blessings that God has for us. But the good news is...only we can get in the way of our blessings. AND the enemy can only do what God allows him to do. There are many ways in which the enemy will try to kill, steal, and destroy. Fortunately, what he uses for our destruction, God will use to build us up. I have learned that not everyone who smiles in my face is my friend. There are some who will dislike me simply because they can. Some will dislike me because of my love for God. There are people who will hate me and want me to fail for no apparent reason at all. Although I may never realize who those people are, or be aware of the mental and emotional harm they mean to cause me, they are still out there. Which is why I'm so glad that 1 John 4:4 says..."greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world." God can see what I cannot see and that fact gives me great comfort! If God is for me, anyone who chooses to be against me will NOT prevail.

In short...make sure you're playing for the right team because one side is guaranteed victory, and the other side will be defeated!
