The devil tells you that you are a fool for trusting God. Don't let him just talk to you recklessly. Tell him that you will foolishly trust God, because God is in control of everything regarding your life. Tell him you don't mind being a fool for Jesus and that you can't go wrong trusting Him!
Don't get offended when people are mean and rude to you because they know you are a Christian. You are a target for nasty spirits when they know you are sold out for Christ! Keep serving Him and treat them as He treats you - with love, mercy and kindness.
If life is not going the way you want and you are miserable as a result, then you are really unhappy with God. He is sovereign! You are where He wants to to be. He controls every aspect of your life! Find reasons to be thankful.

God gives us a promise, but He doesn’t always tell us about what will happen in between times... the hardships, suffering and persecution that we may experience before the promise comes to pass. Brace yourself for it! The suffering doesn’t change God’s plan - it strengthens us for greatness!

Prayer is effective when we pray back to God what the scriptures says. God will not hold back on what He said He will do for us in His word!

Begin today to be effective in prayer - read the scriptures and use it to pray!

People will try to dissuade you from obeying God. Your obedience to Him highlights their disobedience! Don't be distracted by their opinions. Be determined to keep your stance to obey God no matter people say.
