under your skin

I hate how the devil just knows how to get you. Things can be going so strong with God, yet he just knows all too well how to get under your skin. He knows your insecurities and at a moment you are weak, he comes unwelcomed.

I woke without pushing snooze for the first time in a long time this morning. Woke up, had a great breakfast and made it to work by 7. today was going to be a great day...

Nope.

But tomorrow is a new day. I am finding I am needing God in all times, and need to constantly pray to him.... "put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies and tricks of the devil."

As my walk with Jesus becomes closer, it only makes the devil want to get me even more. the devil wants me to NOT glorify God. I am going to have to be ready and alert at all times for his sneak attacks.

Its funny, I saw a commerical for a diet with a little blue monster that keeps popping up and the girl just shuts the monster away. Made me think of what I need to do... :) Shut the devil away with "whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworty-think about such things."-Phil 4:8.

God, prayers to the Japinga family.
