What the enemy uses to distract God uses to direct!
I was walking down the street with my Daddy one afternoon, getting in some really good cardio when all of a sudden my walk was interrupted because I heard a bark. Out of nowhere, across the street was a big dog, barking loud and I just knew at any moment, he was going to be coming straight for us!
Truth be told, I was so afraid that I was ready to leave my Daddy, turn around and go another way! But my Daddy said to me, “Don’t focus on the dog. You keep your eyes on me. I have my eyes on the dog.”
Isaiah 41:10 says “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God.” The enemy has his eyes on you but don’t you let him scare you away. Yes, he’s going to bark at you because he doesn’t want to see you on the path God has for your life. He wants to scare you to the point where you choose to take another way!
But don’t let any intimidation you face interrupt your walk with God. Yes, I know his bark is loud and it can be very scary but don’t pay him any attention. You keep your eyes on your Father, for your Father has his eyes on the enemy. For what the enemy sends to distract you, God uses to direct you.
