1 Peter 5:9 NIV Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

Good morning and praise God. I hope you're having a great day. Have you ever rushed to hospital thinking you were very sick only to get there and find seriously sick and you almost turned back home? It happens that all of us are in battle field. Some of us are on the Frontline while others are somewhere at the hiding place. When we meet and share testimonies as believers, we get to realize that none of us is sailing this life quietly as it seems from outlook. Today's verse is a call to resist him who lead us into temptations. The Devil. The Bible records that he roams around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. He is the father of lies who is telling you to keep complaining to God about your life just because you're undergoing some kind of sufferings. The secret out of that is to stand firm in the faith. Your faith in Jesus Christ your LORD and Savior remembering that you're not alone, God is with you and also knowing in heart that your fellow believers are facing similar sufferings. Some way bigger than yours and others small than yours. Resist that lie of the enemy, he will flee from you and you will experience peace that surpasses all human understanding. The peace of God that can strengthen you amidst worst challenge and make you worship like Paul and Silas in jail. God loves you, have a blessed day. Shalom. Shalom.
