The Deception-TVB

The Deception....

Today is gravy.  It feels as if nothing in the world is wrong.  I mean, I could just go and float my lil self on a cloud and totally believe that I'm allllllll good!  Papa is home with me having a great time with just me and baby boy.  It feels great outside annnnnnd, I had me some coffee so you KNOW I'm happy!  Coffee makes me feel like the world is a PEACH! 

How-some-ever!  It's not!  If i put my guard down now i will, indeed, be clobbered.  Nothing is all good.......yet!  I know that the enemy is trying to lull me into a false sense of security.  I have not yet been delivered.  That battle is still on.  The enemy is absolutely in hiding waiting for me to be naked and unaware so he can attack. That's why until I know, I will remain on guard.  The Lord says in Matthew 10:16- I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

I'm through with the thought that every quiet moment is meant to lay down my sword and pretend i'm not battling.  When you're in a battle, even when there's no live fire, the enemy is still plotting the next attack.  Be a step or two ahead at all times.  I am, afterall, still in the Valley.  I'm on a mission to get back my stuff! 

Sometimes I will be the one to attack!  If i'm going to get my stuff that means, "I won't bust-back, because I'm shootin' first"!  Don't be deceived.  The enemy will lay low to make you think it's all in your head.  Take it from me: You are still in the Valley.  You are still fighting.  You are still looking for your stuff.  It's not over until He says so!  Appreciate the peace, but always be ready to use your sword if need be.  Start your day with the Sword, end your day with Sword.  Lets. Go.

Shrewd as a snake, gentle as doves.  Pray my strength............. In the Valley.
