The following letter is from the book “His Princess: Love Letters from Your King” by Sheri Rose Shepherd. Take a few minutes to let God's words soak in. Then, let's purpose to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit in our lives so we do not allow our enemy to distract us into fighting the wrong battles!
My Princess…Choose Your Battles
Every day can be a fight for something or with someone if you so choose. I want you, My princess warrior, to choose your battles wisely, and fight for the things worth fighting for. There are so many things that stand against you in the battlefield, and there are so many worthy causes. But the enemy of your soul will entice you to fight the wrong battles in order to distract you from your main mission. Remember, My beloved, your fight is not against flesh and blood, but against evil forces in the spiritual realm. When you find yourself in the midst of a war, do not be afraid. Call on Me in prayer and allow Me to deliver you. In My timing, I will give you the victory and bring justice to the afflicted. So don’t waste your time fighting the wrong battles. And never forget that the spiritual war is fought –and won- on your knees.
Love,
Your Warrior King
For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory. Deut 20:4
So very true! And so often the enemy tries to take our eyes and hearts off of our earthly home; the very place where we do our BEST and most influential work, even if we have a career outside of the home as well.
