In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul. Psalm 138:3

As I get older, I realize that “life” is no easy cake walk. It comes with challenges, road blocks, heart aches and disappointments.  Please don’t get me wrong, there are many good moments in life. But when the difficult times come, our strength is zapped and emotions sour. Another fact, the more you put into following Christ, the stronger Satan comes against you through circumstances, people and things. The closer to God you are, your eyes can literally see the dark forces of evil approaching. Whew, lets start a new paragraph.

So, when troubling times come your way, who you gonna call on for help? I hope its God. In case you missed out on the news, your enemy Satan was in Heaven one time. His pride and foolish thinking got him booted out of Heaven and now Satan is on the attack against every child of God. The ONLY way to defeat Satan is with God’s help. Calling on the Lord, gives Satan a “heads up” that someone much more powerful than he is on the way…so he needs to run and hide.

God equips His children for the day when we surrender our will for His. Starting off in prayer and meditation powers up the Holy Spirit to be on “ready”. When we encounter troubling times and give a shout out to God, He responds with everything He’s got. Satan don’t stand a chance.

Maybe you are journeying through life and the trials and tribulations never seem to end. Call on God today for help and watch as your troubles turn into triumphs, your curses turn into blessings and your hopelessness turns to fulfillment knowing your strength is renewed when the power source of this universe comes to your aid. Give Him a call today and see your world turned right side up, providing you strength and encouragement to face another day of life. God bless!
