Combatting the Attack

For those of you who feel that you are under spiritual attack, here are some Scriptures to encourage you for the fight...it's a battle out there--Satan wants your heart to pull away from God, to focus on the earthly, the suffering, the mundane. But God wants our hearts to have an eternal perspective...

2 Corinthians 4: 16-18,
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Philippians 1:29, "For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake..."

1Peter 1:5a we "are kept by the power of God."

Now go thee out and start your Monday...
