Hey girl, have you ever felt like the world is throwing negativity your way left and right? Maybe you’re facing spiritual attacks or just feel overwhelmed by the constant noise. I was under attack by the Evil One for years and I felt like I had to fight by the grace of the Most High I was relived ! It’s easy to want to fight back, to stand toe-to-toe with the enemy. But honey, here’s the secret: true victory comes from a different place. While it might feel counterintuitive, remaining calm and focusing on Jesus is the key to winning our spiritual battles. It’s about surrendering to God’s will, just like Jesus did on his way to Calvary
Jesus, Our Example of Strength in Silence
Imagine the pressure Jesus faced on His walk to Calvary. He knew what awaited Him, the injustice, the pain. Remember this scene, is dusty, hot, and crowded. Jesus, bloodied and weary, struggles with the heavy cross. A mixed crowd follows: some mourn, some mock, some watch. The air is thick with sorrow, fear, and shouts. Soldiers keep order.
"He went a little farther and fell face down on the ground, praying, ‘My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.’"
How we should act in time of adversity
Jesus could have argued, pleaded for mercy. But He chose silence, complete acceptance of His Father’s plan. This quiet strength, this unwavering faith, is what defines true spiritual victory. We, like Jesus, must remember that our battles are ultimately God’s. We can find peace and strength by surrendering to His will.
