They will come at you with all forces! Who is they?

Your child may face bullies of a sneering mocking nature every day.

He or she may face the overwhelming sense of fear and anxiety just having to walk into a place not always filled with welcoming faces.

Some of it is real, some of it anticipated or expected, but in that child's mind. . .the fear that threatens to overtake is overwhelmingly real!

How do you bring them back from that brink where it tries to overtake them in their bodily functions and handicap them in their day to day actions?

You don't always know enough, you don't always know how to help them, but you want to with All that is in you!

We as adults also encounter those who mock, attempt to defame, belittle us and at times even threaten.

They can insert themselves in our minds and presence as actual Giants that keep us from fulfilling our daily lives and calling.

Qanon has warned us. . .attacks will intensify. Clearly these attacks are not just directed to our country or world as a whole, but individual attacks. How do you win a battle? One person at a time!

We always make the choice. . .do we retaliate, do we slink away and listen to their voices, their lies dripping with venom, do we give in and agree with them?

Even though in the midst of danger or even perceived danger there is a choice.

Just as we try to calm our children and teach them coping methods. . .we have to train ourselves Not to Give in to that fear.

When it seems all are against us or perhaps just feels like most, we can always bank on the fact that if we know Who our Creator is and talk to Him, He tells us first hand,

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7

He tells us, but do we always choose to listen or take Him point blank at His word?

You may have been there and can identify with your child or others you see struggling with their anxiety, fears, doubts, feelings of inadequacy.

What does secular society promote? Not enough! A struggle for all as to whether they are enough based on personality, looks, appearance, social skills, successes, how much they can accomplish.

Everyone does battle with this in their own way. No one is exempt, even those who attempt to portray they are.

Those fighting in this literal battle between Good and Evil see how the evil tries to overtake. It attempts access to our weaknesses.

Who makes us strong in our weaknesses?

2 Corinthians 12:9-10

9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

We are all up against a great deal on a daily basis.

When fear threatens to overtake and overwhelm. . .remember Psalm 46:10

"Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world."

There is one greater than this realm we live in right now. His power is real. You just have to make the choice to turn to it and take His promise of 1 John 4:4 4

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

You can find this next verse in Isaiah 41:10

Our God who created us, He has our best interests at heart. Not the ultimate deceiver, who tries to send every manner of enticement (in form of bandages like alcohol, vices, etc) that seem to help for a short period, but in the end will be our demise.

The ultimate deceiver and manipulator sends those against us who will make us feel useless or inadequate.

God does Not want any of this for us or our children who are daily being bombarded with these negative messages of not enough, what's the point.

Only One is powerful enough to combat this and that is why our Creator said this. It if for you and me if we just choose to turn to Him, trust Him and take Him at His word.

Joshua 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”

The song at the beginning of this post depicts stories of people who experienced fear in their own way.

Our times may seem different, the fear and enemy is the Very Same. The God who promised us help is the very same.

Never forget that!
