Topic: ENOUGH (01/07/21)
God's provisions are in place, especially for all of us who know him as our Personal Savior. I, for one, stand on the promises of God, and He is more than enough for me. Anytime something in my life becomes challenging, which is code for a significant dilemma. I look up, and I call out to God. Calling on my Champion also applies when confronted by temptation(s).

I submit to you that we must continue to be vigilant, to be on guard. In the book of JOB, Satan is a bold fallen angel. Job 1:6-7 NASB. 6 Now, there was a day when the sons of God ( angels)came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. 7 The LORD said to Satan, " From where do you come?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, " From roaming about on the earth and walking around on it."
I believe that Satan is a world-class stalker; he is looking for those of us who are not connected. A man should not, nor was he ever intended to live a solitary life.

I believe that we all have so much to learn from the Word of God. It is a matter of reading, studying, and boldly applying what we have prayerfully engrafted into our lives. For one, I do not take it lightly the responsibility of being the Hands and Feet of the Lord. I look at the Bible as a magnificent gift, a road map to navigate planet earth from God, which is indeed enough for me.

I'm of the mindset that I can trust my Father God to stand by his every word. I sincerely hold on to Philippians 4:19, And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. How amazing is this verse? Even if it's the courage needed to face death, of course, he will supply the courage required in his name. Think about your every need; here's a question, are you confident that you are fighting the right battle(s) in life? You have heard me mention the word " Trust " several times; I open-heartedly trust in Jesus Christ.
I confess that it's not always easy in some circumstances, but I work hard at being intentional. I say once again that my God is enough.

You have an enjoyable writing style, and you maintained my interest to the end.

The only improvement I can see is that there should be a line in front of this sentence to separate it from the paragraph above (a small thing!)

I think you did a fine job of expressing your opinion, showing evidence of it and leaving the reader with much about which to think. A minor note is your voice switched from We to I to you. For me personally, I feel it's most powerful when you use first person singular throughout (Although I've no doubt others will disagree). It makes me feel like you're having an intimate discussion with me. And while none of these switches is incorrect per se, for me it can change the tone a bit. Overall though, I think you've delivered a powerful message and covered the topic nicely. This could be an awesome Bible study or devotion. I especially like the notion of Satan as a stalker. It's quite brilliant and evokes powerful emotions from such a short sentence and a perfect lead into the next about living a solitary life. You've given me much to ponder. Outstanding.
