TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT

To scale an impossible rock wall, all you need is the first foothold!

Good morning sir!  

We’re already on day three!  I’m glad you’re here!  Let’s invite the Holy Spirit now.  “Lord, I want to be filled with Your Spirit!  Invade my thinking!  Your Word says, that ‘without You, I can do nothing!’  John 15:5  I agree with this, so ‘come Holy Spirit’ and make Your dwelling place inside of me today!  Amen!”

A foothold is a very powerful thing.  Once one is established, the next one will be easier.  In the spiritual world, a foothold starts with a thought.   And if entertained and left unchecked, it can easily lead to a stronghold.  Just ‘letting the sun go down while you are still angry,’ (Ephesian 4:27) gives the devil a foothold!  And by giving the devil a foothold, you are actually allowing him a place of jurisdiction in your heart to rule you!

So any thought, contrary to God’s revealed truth in the Word of God, is a dangerous thing.  Paul knew this very well.  That’s why he wrote:

“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have God’s power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”  2 Corinthians 10:3-5

“Lord, thank You for ‘God-powered’ weapons which are designed to demolish every lie I’ve believed!  I submit all of me to You, Lord Jesus!  You are my only authority!  I resist the devil now, so he has to flee! (James 4:7)  Amen!
