Targeted As ### In Christ :(

[lifeforchrist]

Dear Prayer partners

Thank you for keeping me in your prayer. I have been growing more in God's grace by your prayers.

Today I have been challenged by a beloved friend to reveal a certain situation that has adversely affected his & mine life, he argued to me regarding “the will of God” in certain situation. I said Christ has revealed to me it's God's will but he argues it's not. So he has challenged me. He said if I am really strong in Christ, God will reveal to me what all conversation took place and what all incident happened at a certain place which led to all problems. He said if I am not able to reveal it, it means I am weak in Christ.

I really don’t know what’s going to happen. I accepted the challenge in Christ, so that through this only Christ’s name will be glorified.

Please pray very hard for me. I don’t want myself to be called as weak in Christ…Please I know I am not weak. The devil is targeting me very hard.

It's time I trample its head under my foot. In the mighty name of Jesus

Amen

My Friend, never judge life by one difficult season. Keep Your Focus on God. Endure. Stay Steadfast. God has great plans for your life. Plans to prosper you and not harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future (Jer. 29:11).

Let’s Pray: God I ask in Jesus' name, that I don't give up in my winter season. Help me, make me fight the good fight of faith so that I may witness the promise of spring, beauty of summer, and the fulfillment of all. Help me to endure, stay steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord. Encourage me to continue on to the end so that I will fulfill the plans that You Lord Jesus have for my life. Though it all help me keep my attitude right. Let my attitude be a reflection of You Living in my life. Let me exemplify an attitude of praise, peace, faith, hope, love, joy, strength, and victory. And my Lord please do the same for all my family, friends, and the writer of this prayer. Help us all to endure until the end. Let this be our song, "We fought a good fight, we kept the faith, and we finish our course." Amen, So Be It, And It Is So!!!

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer and the youngest son in the fall. When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.

The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment. The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.

He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season; and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer and the fulfillment of your fall. Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. Don't judge life by one difficult season. Endure. Stay Steadfast. Continue On to the end and fulfill the plans God has for your life.

Father God, thank you for your Word. We take pleasure in distresses for Christ's sake, for when we are weak, then we are strong! God promised to give us a crown of life when we are tried and because we endured, we will be blessed. Glory to the most High!........... Be Encouraged and Faithful to abound in Blessings

Consider the birds of the air... birds are the only creatures, who unlike other creatures, that have been tamed and subjected to man's will and power, can never be subjected to man's wisdom or power. They are governed by the heavenly voice. They only exist by God's provision and grace, and have never been in need of man's protection, like other rare species. They only sing to praise God, not to give a warning hissing sound, rather just seem to sing praises to God's glorious name.

They seem to be fairly safe above the ground, in the shadow of the trees, but they encounter all kinds of trials when they come down, to satisfy their fleshly appetites and needs. The worst enemy a bird can have is a cat, prowling around, seeking whom he might devour.

So help us Lord to seek our guidance, wisdom and protection from you, knowing you are faithful.
