Sometimes I forget just how real spiritual warfare is. I was reminded last night that the enemy will attack when we are weak. An acronym for those times is HALT. We are most voulnerable when we are Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired.
I have been angry, lonely and tired a lot this semester, and subsequently I have been warn down. I felt disconnected to my Christian sisters and brothers, I have been tempted to give up on my study of God’s word, and I have nearly lost all hope in school and what I’m going to school for. This is not good.
However, I was also reminded that I cannot save myself from spiritual warfare. The only way to win the battle is to give up and let God do the fighting. Self relience does not work, and never will. I tried and failed, but the Lord will save me because of the covenant I have throught Jesus Christ.
