Does the Enemy really attack successful believers?

[Brighthouse]

Who is a person who can fight against the Lord? How far in our mind, can we travel to run away from him? What place can we dwell where he is not there? These questions do come with answers my brother.

But they come with a great cost!Ones own life. For some who dwell in the mountains,they dwell there for a reason. Life has been most unkind to them.They wish to just be as it was so many many years ago.The tape you hear does not come from others,but rather in yourself.

It is a tape you have heard now for many years. You are seeking. You will not find this in a woman,or in any human kind.Though that is your hope. You have as I used to looked for every single way to stay out of the Lord's way.But he keeps finding you.

There is no end to the places we can look to hide,nor is there any place to hide. Darkness that can surround us,cannot last,sooner or later light breaks the darkness, and the still, to shed new light unto both us,and our situation.It is here, I see in the Lord you are now at.

Judgement comes first from within a man.Not from without him. Even as any good thing he does comes from outside a man.He can do good,because he has learned how to be good on the inside first. Life grows first from within,then from without. Jesus does not judge you, or any my brother.

He knows how it is to be judged. he was even killed for judgment sake. A little deep here?? sorry.Perhaps it is. I see your need,many here do as well. But you like all of us,have to first help yourself,before you can learn how others can help you.

The Lord is where you are. The door to his love and wisdom is before you.But only you can open it pilgrim. For each of us now in Christ,were indeed pilgrims to him, before we opened the door. Now we are pilgrims to the World. And a friend. unto God!( Hebrews 11:13-16!!!)

To sum things up,please do read this. (1peter 3:8-12) I do not have much to offer,but I offer all that I have. Blessing to you.

What things can you guys tell us to fight with the bible? i am feeling tape recorded and falsely judged....... and am about to get married.......

Ephesians 6:12
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

We are not in a physical fight, GB777. The battle may manifest through real people at times, but we have to understand it's not usually because they even know they're being used by the Devil. Consider what Jesus said before He died on the cross:

Luke 23:24
34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

So how do we do battle? Well, God's ways are not our ways. In fact, God's way of doing battle is pretty much the exact opposite of what our natural response would be as humans:

Matthew 5:44
44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you

Romans 12:14
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.

We are also called to pray fervently for all manner of good for every situation. God is sovereign and in total control. If we pour out our hearts over injustice, the evils of this world, and every bad thing, He will work supernaturally to bring righteousness and to squash evil. Don't be afraid to travail before the LORD, He wants His children to let their hearts be poured out before Him. Then, He will fight our fight for us. We have to leave it to Him because sometimes we're so wrong and we are all shortsighted. God may eventually save some of the people who are giving you a hard time. He's outside of time, and He can see who will eventually come to Him. He wants you to forgive the people who are harassing you that we don't hinder His purpose in this world.

Matthew 6:14
14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you,

Ephesians 4:32
32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

These are just a few basic ideas about this spiritual battle. May the LORD grant you wisdom and understanding of His will in your life. In Jesus' name I pray.

One other thing, Goldbaby777, in this spiritual battle we Christians are in, Satan loves to stir up hatred, resentment, bitterness by putting a bunch of lies into our mind. Satan will attempt to make you see the worst in ever action by others around you in order to make you filled with unforgiveness. He is a liar, and the father of lies, and we are to assume the best in others in order to avoid a root of bitterness growing within us.

In other words, don't believe everything you think. Satan and his minions love to whisper accusations and lies about others in order to torment us and take away our joy.
