By the divine grace of God through the authority of the Holy Spirit, we are empowered to do more exploits for the Kingdom of God than we can imagine. God is shifting things in your favor. Believe and claim the blessing by faith along with hard work.
In the process, recognize temptation for what it is, and reject it immediately without compromise. Please adhere to James' warning, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4:7 NIV). Satan wants to rob you of your blessings through the deceptive art of temptation.
Don't let him!
You see fellow believers, the enemy may be able to steal your blessings, but understand that your God will never allow him to keep them. The Lord will let you recover everything the enemy has taken from you.
He let David recover what the enemies had stolen from him; "David inquired of the Lord, saying, "Shall I pursue this band? Shall I overtake them? And He said to him, "Pursue, for you will surely overtake them, and you will surely rescue all" (1 Samuel 30:8 NAS). Our God is not only a consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29), but He is also our Supreme Warrior (Exodus 15:13). May the Lord bless and sanctify His word for your life.
