When you give your life to Jesus, God claims you as His. You have a new and amazing life ahead of you that God planned and purposed. But this also puts you at risk from attack from the enemy. He can see things in you that you can’t see in yourself - the potential you have - that’s why he wants to come against you, preventing you from becoming the giant killer that you are. In Mark chapter 5 we read about a man who was possessed, so those around him put him on an island over the sea of Gallilee and chained him up. Jesus and his disciples were on their way to that same island, when a storm broke out over the sea. The disciples were terrified, but Jesus calmed the storm with a simple command. When He got to the island the man fell down at his feet and Jesus cast the demonic spirits out of him. The man came to his senses and was healed. God never gives up on you! There is NO storm too big for Him! He loves you and He goes before you. God’s purpose for you is more powerful than the enemy’s plans against you. Moses was found by Pharaohs daughter along the Nile. She knew he was Hebrew, and she knew that her father had ordered all Hebrew baby boys to be killed, but still she felt something in her to keep the baby. God had plans for Moses and nothing could stop His plans. We may go through many challenges in life - good times, bad times and things that try knock us down - but God has us. He is our victor and he will never let the enemy triumph over us! When you can’t fight for yourself, God is fighting for you.
