Our weaknesses always make us down. A lot of stories that I've heard from everyone that I been talked to said that their weaknesses were the reason why they sometimes couldn't reach their goal(s). Me too, experienced the same way. But now, I want to get you agree with me that our weaknesses is actually the greatest tool or weapon to beat down the devil!
In my whole life until today, I didn't realized that my weaknesses are my weapons, where the devil had controlled my 'weapons' for a long time before. One of my weaknesses is fear of standing in front of a crowd, i.e public speaking, worship leader, individual performance, or even to read a portion of a text for a few seconds (unless I am really afraid of the teacher). At the same time, I had a dream, to be a worship leader in a church. So what I did? Pray hard. I always mentioned that thing in my prayer because I am confident with my vocal tone and range that I want to serve GOD with my voice, which is a gift. So, until one day I was asked by my youth leader at my church to handle a praise & worship team on Sunday service, for a huge congregation. That was really my first time and my heart and mind was out of confidence on the stage! First time was really hurt for me. As the time passed by, now I already have what I dream before. Weapon? I already overcome the particular fear and the devil no more have a big chance to accuse me on that area, unless I get further from Him.
This topic appeared in my mind last week on Saturday. Last week was a bad week for me! I really crawling to find out my joy in my heart, because my life was full with pressures! As I prayed, God remind me, whatever happens on me, it's just because He wants me to experience that before I go back to heaven. My life on earth is just as a workplace/playground/field/whatever you want to call it, because sooner when I go back to heaven, nothing from this world will I experience anymore in heaven. Good or bad, everything is for my goodness from Him. To beat the devil is by beating down my fear/weaknesses.
So, let us think about this. It might not easy for us to handle hardships in our life, but we have to change our paradigm. The bible says "Don't worry" 365 times in the scriptures, which is equal to 365 days a year. Thus, each day should be no worry!
Hahaha...stay blessed everyone!!! GOD bless you!!~:D
