In my deep and dark standings, I am up against many facets of immovable mountains that are stacked up to the ceiling and as deep as it is tall.
The old Peter would be overcome w/ anxiety and loss. I can say that I am able to stand w/out sinking. I am also knowing that these mountains are not impossible to conquer. But, I know that I cannot do it on my own- I would just fail. But, in return to all the lies put into my thoughts, I know that Christ is here with me and if I ask Him to help and bless me, that I will be able to overcome all the mountains set before me.
I do pray for the troubled path before me. The old Peter would be cursing and accepting the eminent failure. But Christ does not want us to live like that. It doesn't do any good to complain and curse the situation- thats what the devil wants. But, instead, pray for it knowing that Christ has given a promise to see us through all that we are assigned to face in this wicked world.
Christ went through the worst trials, and we will face many of the trials He went through. The devil told Him all kinds of lies and temptations and He held on to the truth He brought in His teachings. He knew what the truth was when the devil was telling Him lies. It is the same for us... the devil tells us lies, Christ knows the truth, Christ is the truth... so shouldn't we be looking to Him as out Journeyman if we are the apprentice?
We actually do not know much about the truth, or how to battle against our current situation. When we store up all our treasures in Heaven, which is the word of God, the Holy Spirit checks our spirit and shares with us the scriptures need for the time.
