I have given you authority (power) to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Luke 10:19 NIV

Many times as individuals we feel that if we don’t address an issue it will go away, in actuality the things in your life that you don’t address and conquer have control and power over you. Fear, unhealthy relationships, lies, and the things we know we should do and don’t are examples of issues that we allow to have power over us. It takes courage and integrity to face life challenges some have been embedded in us from childhood. But with faith and confidence in God we have the power and authority to overcome everything that does not fit the description of Jesus Christ. As we go through this journey with Christ more is revealed of who we are not and who we should become, I believe God designed it this way so that each day by the power he has instilled in us we become transformed into HIS character, and love. His word promises “he who has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Never give up on you, I don’t care how many times you have to try in a particular area that you are struggling just stay the course trust God drench yourself in his word and prayer and he will do a work. You are never defenseless or hopeless, Christ is for you, yes the one with all authority and power in his hand, the one who thought enough of you to die for you so you would have an abundant life he is with you. Stand firm and never allow anything but God to have power over you.
