counterattack

So tired of the pattern...problems pop up, then either obstacles trying to solve the problem, OR the problem is "tweaked in a way to "stay alive" when I thought it was over. It's just a continuous stream of attacks against me and counterattack when I seem to get a victory. Enough already!

I have an iffy situation with my schedule coming up. There are some small hints that one of the ### might make a move (unintentionally) that would benefit me. Prayer for that, to dodge the bullet, but also, I know from experience that if I dodge something, the devil just tweaks the circumstances...

I've had this happen to me. After prayer for a troublesome situation, I at first feel good because I brought it before God. But almost immediately after the prayer, a "reminder comes that the problem is still there, making it look like I wasted my time praying if it had no effect. Worse yet...

I'm surrounded by non Christians they don't know the lord and I'm asking to be filled by the holy spirit. I also asking to that I can counterattack and the spirit counter attack the enemy.
