Obstacles
As
you travel along your way, obstacles will appear before you. Not all the
obstacles are real, however; some are merely illusions designed by the enemy to
hinder your progress. He desires to hinder you until time runs out for you to
finish your course. See that you do not allow him to do this, that you may
claim your many rewards when all is done. For the obstacles that are real, My Word holds
the key to how to overcome each one on your path.
He
who walks a smooth path learns little, but he who walks a rocky path develops
both skill and understanding for overcoming various sizes and types of
obstacles.
I
desire you would have both skill and understanding. I desire you would learn to
discern what is real from what is an illusion, that you be not hindered along
your way.
Do
not allow the enemy to deceive you.
James 1:2-4
2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into
divers temptations;
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith
worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye
may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Proverbs 3:5-7
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean
not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall
direct thy paths.
7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and
depart from evil.
Habakkuk 2:3
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall
speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come,
it will not tarry.
1 Peter 5:8 Be
sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion,
walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Revelation 3:21
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as
I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
1 Corinthians 9:23-25
23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I
might be partaker thereof with you.
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run
all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is
temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we
an incorruptible.
