#27 - Faith's Greatest Enemies - Overcoming

So how do we rise above or overcome these enemies of faith? By getting the Word of God rooted in our heart and developing a lifestyle of faith.

Joshua 1:8 tells us we should meditate on the Word of God day and night and not let it depart from us, then, we will prosper and have good success. I Thessalonians 5:17 tells us to pray without ceasing.

In other words, we need to get the Word of God settled in our hearts without any doubt through study & prayer, have a devotional life and exercise our faith, all on a daily basis. This way when the enemies of faith come, we will be able to rise above them and stay strong in our faith.

And when we do stumble and fall and are taken in by the deception of any of faith's enemies, confess to God we have fallen and sinned and receive His forgiveness and cleansing as promised in 1 John 1:9. Then, get back up and continue walking by faith,

But the choice is yours. You can live like the world and get swallowed up when faith's greatest enemies come and have your faith rendered useless and never have what God promises in His Word, or you can choose to develop the measure of faith God gives to each of us by exercising it daily, reading and studying the Word daily, and walking in relationship with God each day.

Then, as Joshua 1:8 tells us, you can be prosperous and have good success, rise above faith's greatest enemies and have, be and do all God wants you to have be and do!
