Dear One,
You have heard it said that there is a calm before a storm. Spiritually, often the opposite is true. The storm happens because the devil has seen that you are relentless in your praying and you are standing fully in your position of spiritual authority, and he gives one last concerted effort to try to get you of guard so that you will give up and think you are defeated. If you believe him, you are already defeated.
The real truth is that he is defeated and he knows it, but the last thing he can do in the situation is to deceive you into thinking you've lost and he's won. Then you might give up.
When a big storm of harassment comes and things look bleak, you must realize what the devil's strategy is and you must reinforce your position by increased prayer, increased wisdom from Me, and increased proclamation to the enemy that My promises are true and that you and I are the victors.
Never back down when you know your position as My child, and never back down when you know My wisdom and My insight in the situation.
Winners never give in to deception.
Winners never give in to storms, but they ride the storm out standing in their place of honor until the calm comes, which is guaranteed.
Become like the surfers, riding on top of the waves caused by the storm. Don't fall into them. Praying in the Spirit and declaring My promises will keep you on top.
Love, God
Matthew 7:24-27; Mark 4:37-40; Mark 11:23-26
