“I said, “What good is it if I die and go down to the grave? The dead just lie in the dirt. They cannot praise you. They cannot tell anyone how faithful you are. Lord, hear my prayer, and be kind to me. Lord, help me!””
Psalms 30:9-10 ERV

Lord I come to you today saying thank you. Thank you for covering me in my foolishness. Thank you loving me, even when I act unlovable. Thank you for being my shield of protection against my enemy, even when the enemy is me. Lord I thank you because you have been faithful.
Do you have those days when you wake up Thankful? Just appreciative of all of the things you know that God has done for you, without a doubt you know it was God? Yeah me too. It should be everyday but let me keep it real, some days I feel defeated.
Some days I wake up frustrated, angry, depressed or downright ungrateful. Those are the times when I have allowed the enemy into my head. All it takes is one or two minute of distraction for the enemy to grab you. We have to be diligent in our prayers and our learnings because the word says, my people perish because of lack of knowledge, he is not talking about reading Socrates or the latest Stephen King book, he is talking about knowledge of HIM, his greatness, his love, his forgiveness, his grace. There is knowledge in the 66 books of the Bible for us to live abundant lives. Gods love is abundant in the things we need both physical and spiritual.
One day I was listening to Floyd Mayweather the boxer, and I noticed his record is “and 0”… the #of battles he has fought verses the number of battles he has lost .. UNDEFEATED!
So are WE… undefeated in all the things the enemy has tried to do. We have survived horrible tragedies in our lives, death, destruction, intentional malice. We have been lied on, cheated on, talked about and mistreated. We have also committed sin, we have lied, we have been destructive to our own bodies and minds, we have stolen and bribed and disobeyed, but GOD! His grace and mercy still works.
So when the enemy tries to tell you to be quiet and stop praising, give him a word back and tell him “this is the day the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it.”
When the enemy tries to convince you that you are failing, remind him that you are more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus!
When the enemy tries to tell you anything that does not line up with what God has told you, tell him satan , get thee behind me.
We are undefeated in everything that came to destroy us.
“My soul, praise the Lord! Every part of me, praise his holy name! My soul, praise the Lord and never forget how kind he is! He forgives all our sins and heals all our sicknesses. He saves us from the grave, and he gives us love and compassion. He gives us plenty of good things. He makes us young again, like an eagle that grows new feathers. The Lord does what is fair. He brings justice to all who have been hurt by others. He taught his laws to Moses. He let Israel see the powerful things he can do. The Lord is kind and merciful. He is patient and full of love.”
