For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds.— 2 Corinthians 10:4 (AMPC)
Sometimes we lose our focus. We can be walking in love all day, going along just fine, until someone comes along and offends us. As soon as that frustrating moment causes us to forget our focus of love, we stop making progress and come to a standstill — aggravated, upset, and offended.
If you want to be able to make it through frustrating things that usually derail you, understand that the mind is a battlefield. If you don’t stop Satan when he gets into your thoughts, you’re not going to stop him from getting into your life, so stay focused. Guard your thoughts. Ask God to help you remain full of love for people, no matter what comes your way today.
Prayer Starter: Father, please give me the grace I need to forgive people quickly and guard my thoughts. Thank You for helping me love people the way You do today. In Jesus’ name, amen.
