My personal reflection

My personal reflection is usually in the form of a conversation with God and usually includes both sides of the conversation. I know it's weird but that's how the Lord speaks to me.

Are you not misled because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God

Make them go away
Mark 12:18-27

Are you not misled because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God


Lord,
I have a long way to go on knowing the scriptures.  Your power is what I so  often forget about.

Yesterday I was completely consumed by the swarm of evil spirits that attacked and attacked relentlessly.  I forgot about the power you have given me.  I forgot that with you I am made strong, with you I can defeat them and have the freedom I desire so much.

But it didn't last, not after I remembered the tool of rebuking them in your name.  Your name sent them to flight, your name scared them away and I felt a calmness that contrasted with what I was feeling before like a bright light in complete darkness.  I was then able to step back and see their lies.  I was able to thank more clearly and I was able to feel your presence.  I could feel your arms around me gently rocking me, consoling me, holding me tightly, making me feel secure.   It was like the calm after the storm, only there was no devastation left behind.  Lord you saved me, but I had to ask and allow you to save me.  Thank you Lord, for rescuing me.  Lord help me remember as soon as they strike the next time.  I know there will be a next time.  Help me learn the scriptures so I can fight them with the sword you've given me.

Oh my God, thank you. I love you.  Save me, Lord
