The Lord is saying: I Am here, and I Am with you. The devil, as a roaring lion, is seeking to devour you, My loves. Guard your hearts in this time, for he is ferociously trying to deceive you into sin and away from Me. When you let down your guard, he takes advantage of this opportunity to lead you astray and this is not My will for you. Instead, be in constant communication with Me, that I guide you through the minefield that is before you if you stumble at any point. My Word is life, and it will keep you from harm of the enemy, but you must keep your eyes focused on Me. Peter, when he took his eyes off Me quickly began to sink in the dark waters that began to toss him around. And such it is with you, My loves. When you take your focus off Me and onto your surroundings this is when you begin to sink into disobedience, and this is playing right into the hands of the enemy. I tell you this to warn you that because of the lateness of the hour you cannot afford to stray from Me at any point. If you are struggling with this, cry out to Me and I will come to your rescue, but you must lay down your sin, confess it before Me and I will hold you tightly to the end. My loves, you live in a very serious time.
1 Peter 5:5-11 (ESV) Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 11 To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
(Matt 14:28-31; James 4:7-8; Eph 6:10-18; Heb 12:1-2)
