When I Try To Get Closer To God, These 2 Things Happen

 I’ve noticed that when I try to get closer to God, 2 things happen:  God starts working in my heart and mind and the enemy starts whispering in my ear. 

“As soon as Jesus was baptized…a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased….The tempter came to Him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.” Matthew 3:16-4:3

When you take a step toward Jesus, God meets you. He works in your heart and changes you. 

And the enemy of your soul doesn’t like it. He tempts, taunts, and tries to taint the Truth. That’s what he does to try to distract and discourage us from living for God. 

Move toward Jesus anyway. When the enemy whispers, worship even louder. Your father is spurring you on.  He loves you and is so pleased with your faithfulness. – Sandi
