In today's episode I share my testimony and how the truth of the word of God, kept me from committing suicide as a teen. I was susceptible to this type of thinking because I was believing the lies of the enemy. I was blinded to who I was in Christ and that almost destroyed me.
One of the enemy’s main purposes on this Earth is to keep you blinded. Blinded to the goodness of God. Blinded to your true identity and the only way you can fight against him is by putting on the full armor of God which we’ll study in depth next week. The anchoring piece of the armor is the belt of truth which comes from abiding in God’s word daily so that, in moments when you find yourself battling with your identity, battling with temptation, battling with doubt or low self-esteem, you will have an exact word to send the devil back to the pits of hell from whence he came and you can do it all in Jesus’ name.
If you're ready to break free from spiritual bondage, tune into the episode for this week.
