Help us to begin where we are
Help us love the people
Near to our hearts
Then give our faith a mission field
Wherever You may call
Lord love the world
Through each one of us
Until we've touched them all

Rawrr sin is sooo annoying. I hate sin for what it is, and i hate the devil for what he does.. Sometimes it just makes me wanna go up to him and beat him flat! I wonder how come the devil sometimes can be so powerful and so effective against us humans, then i remember that the devil is not powerful at all! In fact he is powerless. The day Jesus died on the cross, He took the keys, broke the chains, and defeated death right there and then! Rendering the devil powerless with no hold over our lives anymore! But the thing is that the only reason why the devil can tempt us, is because we give him room/space to let him tempt us, and we give him the power to control us. When we sin and give in to temptation, we let the devil have a 'landing pad' into our lives, and because we opened to door to him, he will enter and do as he wills. And we all know that the nature of the devil is to kill, steal, and destroy. So why would anyone want that in their lives? We see fellow brothers and sisters all over the world falling prey to devil, falling prey to sin, and get upset, angry.. because the devil is taking something that doesn't belong to him!

We gotta be strong! We have to stand firm! We need to rise up! We must not let the devil rob us anymore of what is meant to be ours!!

Forgetting what lies behind
Setting our hearts on the prize
Always keeping our eyes on our Lord Jesus
We're running the race to win
All the way till the end
Breaking down every sin that would seek to hinder us

And we'll be faithful to our calling
For You are able to keep us from falling
For in Your promise, we will trust
We'll be faithful to finish
The work You began in us.

Day 48.

Leviticus 11-13. Talked about clean and unclean food and people.The laws back then of what God would consider clean, and what was unclean. This was important because God is a Holy God, and dislikes unclean things. It is written in the Bible that the unclean creatures on the earth back then were detestable to God. However that made me think, didn't God create everything? And after He created everything, He said it was good. Why would God then want to create something that is detestable to Him? That's if He made them in the first place.. But if He didn't, who did?
