I just saw this on a t-shirt this morning and I loved it. It said, “The devil saw me with my head down and thought he’d won until I said AMEN.” That speaks volumes and it rings so true! No matter what you are going through, you cannot be defeated by the enemy when you take it to God in prayer. In fact, he is defeated the moment you bow your head in prayer! God is for us, so nothing can stand against us.
It takes positive action on our part though. We can’t simply sit back and expect God to do it all for us. We must be willing to seek him and serve him. Don’t use him as a 9-1-1 call only when you are in trouble. He will be there for your emergencies, but he will be there to walk with you and be your friend during the good times as well. He wants daily fellowship and communication with you.
So if the devil sees your head down and is sneaking up on you to steal, kill, or destroy, God will thwart those plans and show you the way out. Say “AMEN” and watch the devil flee!
John 10:10 (NKJV) - “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
