Stand Firm

Let me start with a hearts cry of encouragement-

Don’t Fear the Battle!!!

STAND FIRM!

​​

Ephesians 6:Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel,

Ephesians 6:10‭-‬19 ESV

Only God knows what this year holds for each woman connected to this TrustGodCryrepeat website. As you know December was dedicated to praying specifically for you all and your families so please know that we love you all and count it a privilge to go to God on your behalf. Thank you for your continued support.

Let’s dive into today’s tough topic as the rest of the topics from now on will be tough as well so please dig your heels in and stay connected to one another.

#1 Refuse to buy into the lies of satan. 

We live in a unique time in life where the ever evolving perverse alphabet community, feminism agenda and the cancel culture beacons to crush Biblical standards and and all those who uphold them into a tiny box of submission. Thats why I said dig your heels in. Refuse to be tolerant. Refuse to embrace the false doctrine of the ever so popular thou shall be nice. Refuse to conform. Refuse to not condition your bodies for battle ladies. Gain strength and enjoy aquiring grit and feminine toughness. Be determined to have more resolve than a wet paper bag. Tell the truth ladies no matter the cost. I’ve had many people come and go from my life over the last 20 years of being a Christian, but Christ has never left me nor forsaken me.

Hang in there ladies. We are in an all out war pray and keep praying!!!!!!

We have to care more for a person’s soul than we do their feelings. The Bible is offensive to those who are in sin or are living unsubmitted to it,  which is sinful. Conviction should hit us all hard. Conviction brings forth repentance if we submit to Christ. We as women of God must all submit to the Word of God. We all are held to the same standard. Christ’s standard. Bible is the filter which all of our lives pass through. Whether I yell it, or I say it in a sweet angelic whisper here goes-

stop here being obstinate to the authority of Jesus Christ.  We have be Christian enough to allow Christ to convict us to change. Rebellious behavior can be disguised as pure motivations which the enemy uses to deceive us into conforming to the world’s way of thinking and living.

Rebellion can come in the form of anxiety too. I had allowed myself to get distracted and I was encouraged by my husband to see my victories in Christ. He encouraged me with the Word of God and to use scripture to get my mind to rehearse truth instead of satan lies. So I’ll share them with you all.

Joshua 1:9 says 

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 NKJV

Standing firm starts with renewing your mind. Open your word and rehearse it with full conviction until you remember whose spirit dwells with you the Lord God Almighties The Lord whose mighty in battle.

Like 2 Tim. 1:7-

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
II Timothy 1:7 NKJV

Phil. 4:6-8-

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.
Philippians 4:6‭-‬8 NKJV

Ps 18:29-31 NKJV

For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall. As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him. For who is God, except the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?
Psalms 18:29‭-‬31 NKJV

Galatians 6:9–

And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

Galatians 6:9 NKJV

Ladies, the enemy is divisively trying to separate women like never before. Don’t fall pray to his attacks.  Instead know that the more we fellowship, the more we pray together, the more we read the Bible, and the more we rebuke satan the stronger and more influential we are for the kingdom of God. Warning: only the devil would get upset with the things I just said.  I want to leave with this scripture :

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

I Corinthians 15:58 NKJV
