Enemy

My Stronghold: When God is with me, I can stand my ground against the enemy. With God, I never have to retreat.

We are no match for Satan and his sinister schemes. But remember your “birthmark!” You belong to the One who has already defeated the enemy and his most potent weapon . . . death. You can say confidently with the psalmist, “In the Lord I take refuge.” That’s the beauty of our “birthmark.”

Death is an enemy. It separates us from the body and takes us away from those we love on earth. It seems final. But Jesus will never leave us alone. As we pass from death He will usher us into life. Jesus will not leave you as an orphan. He is with you during this life, through the passage of death, and throughout eternity. Jesus never leaves us alone.
