We have to be exceedingly close to our Glorious departure via the rapture.

For me...the last week or two have been a roller coaster ride.  Just as I am reveling in the Joy of the Lord, in the Love of God, Praising, Worshipping, and giving Thanks, Satan sends someone to attempt to steal my Joy and Peace in Christ.

My feathers get all ruffled up and I have to fight not to get all riled up.  Thank God for the FULL Armour of GOD!!!!

I am all to familiar (as we all are) to spiritual attacks.  But this week seemed to take the cake!!!!

Just as the Holy Spirit opened my spirit to pray deeper and speak the Word with more conviction, my unbelieving brother sent me a link on myths about the book of "revelationS".  For reasons I do not know, he refuses to believe in God.  Yet there is no doubt he has been touched by the Lord's Love through me in very practical ways.  While he does respect me for I have gone over and beyond in helping him and his family, he and his family do not believe in God.  Both my family and his wife's family were raised to believe and pray to God, they do not.
I have done so much for them and they are grateful but have hardened hearts towards their Creator.

So my brother sends me a link to mock me, and ruffle my feathers.  However the Holy Spirit restrained me from getting into an argument with him.

Then a person who has a very negative personality while a "Christian" attempted to contact me.  I have no peace when I am around this person.  As much as I have tried to be positive around this person, she is very, very draining.  So I have made a decision to stay away from this person.  I came very close to getting my feathers all ruffled up, a second time.

A third attempt to steal my joy in the Lord was when my next door neighbor disrupted my joy with his ongoing critical disposition!!!

Bam! Bam!Bam!!!

It took me several hours today to understand what is happening.  Satan is working overtime to steal, kill and destroy, our joy, peace and love for God and the brethren.

In addition to being a watch woman, I am a prayer warrior...so I continue to pray without ceasing pray as we are instructed.

All that said, I am convinced these attacks were designed to take my eyes off Jesus and His Spirit, and to focus on the carnal!! Right before the rapture!!

No can do!!!!  No weapon formed against us will succeed in these last moments of these last days!!!

The Spirit and the Bride say...(all together now!)...Come Lord Jesus!!!!!!
