Let it go

There are times in our life when it seems like something just ain't right.  We know within our midst is deception and we have an unction to be silent, yet because of the temptation of pride, we'd rather participate in confrontation and release the anger.  Still we know  this is an attempt at causing you to slip.  Your walk with Christ may be at risk or in danger.  But Glory to God and Bless the Lord through the sight of Christ  we have a guiding light and we know we must not participate in it.  I've been there and I know there are times we have to say no.   Leave if necessary, take a walk and close that door.  

When you find yourself doing things you don't usually do.  Saying things and speaking in ways that are not like you.  Wasting time on people, places or things that lead to spiritual decrease rather than increase.  When you find your self at a lost about what's going on in your world.  When your smile is more often turned upside down and you're no longer comfortable in your own space.  You may have gotten off track or moved out of place.  All it takes is one bad choice.  A choice that has invaded your peace and you're now entertaining as foreign noise.   These could very well be signals or signs indicating you've gotten off course and there's a need for a better lead.   A better direction, a time to seek shelter.  

Shelter in the arms of the Lord who can calm the raging storm and guide you back home.  Home in Christ where you belong.  We can't control, the things of this world, because the battles not mine or yours.  Like sheep it's easy for us to stray away from the fold.  But Glory to God!  We have a Shepard who cares, a friend who knows.  All we have to do is let go and turn it over to God.  Confess with our mouth and in our heart.  We've made a wrong turn, we've made a wrong choice.  In the mighty name of Jesus; say I'm in need lord!  I'm in need of your guidance, your protection and love.  I'm your child and I know in you I have nothing to do with this world.  I am weak but you are strong.  Restore my faith, restore my hope and restore my joy.  Lead me into your presence, through prayer and your Word.  All else in this world today I let go.  In you today I go forth.  Leaving the road of darkness.  I close the door.   Today and everyday I let go.  The battle is not mine, it's yours.

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God (Philippians 4:6)

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved (Romans 10:9).

Likewise the Spirit also helps our weakness: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought but the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:26-28).

For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it (Ecclesiastes 7: 12).

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.  For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father (Romans 8: 14-15).

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4: 7).
