Why?

By Sister Karen Williams

Why does the enemy try so hard to convince you that you’re not good enough? Why does he try so hard to make you feel awkward and beneath others? Think about it, we know for certain these voices are not coming from your savior. So, why? Why does he constantly and ruthlessly work so hard to magnify all of your weaknesses? Why does he remind you on a daily basis of all you will never be and all that you will never do? Come on now, I want you to really think about it. Every single day, he plants seed after seed of self-doubt in your mind. He’s consistent to water it without fail and fights to see your imperfections and shortcomings grow and slowly bring you down to your defeat. Why so much? Why so often? Why so relentlessly does he nag and violently force himself into our minds and spirits? I’ll tell you why. If you ever really start believing in yourself, not in your own ability but in yourself...as a blood bought, Holy Ghost filled, powerful, anointed walking talking, life changing vessel that has been handpicked and chosen by the Master and maker of this universe....if you ever really begin to tap into your potential in Christ, the devil doesn’t stand a chance. God’s power will blow his schemes against you right off the map. Miracles, signs, and wonders, they all will happen when we shut the mouth of the adversary and realize that we are the end time revival. We are not waiting on it, it is here. It’s in me and it’s in you. It’s through prayer and fasting and the word that we tap into the storehouse of His treasures available to us. I don’t know about you but I’m ready to be what He has called me to be. Will I get opposition? Sure I will. Will the enemy stop trying? Nope. But I can tell you this: when we get saturated in God’s word and so full of His spirit that we recognize the power and authority we have over the enemy then we will stand up and say enough. I know who I am. I am blood bought, I am a child of the King. I am Royalty. Yep, you don’t like to hear that, but it’s true. You are royalty. Stand up. Step out. Embrace the attacks of the enemy knowing that all things that happen to you are for the furtherance of this gospel!!! God will use the enemy again and again to purify you, prepare you and push you into your destiny in Him. The enemy simply cannot win. The power within us defines who we are.
