Don’t Take the Devil’s No

My Pastor who is my Pop Pop, Chief Apostle H.C. Gunn told us to not take the devil’s no.

So many times we feel like we have messed up, went backwards, we have a feeling of we can’t move forward, things are too hard, but that’s taking the devil’s no. Satan wants us to quit and to throw in the towel, but we can’t listen to him. Jesus didn’t listen to satan when he tried to tempt him to sin. Jesus was in the flesh just like us and he is the perfect example of not taking the devil’s no.

The devil probably tried so many times to tell Jesus that he would fail and that he can’t save the souls of his children, but Jesus didn’t listen to satan. Satan wants to see us fail and he tries to throw things or situations at us to where we feel like we can’t continue to move forward. Satan will try to tell you, you can’t make it on this walk with God, but you can. He may try to tell you, what God told you isn’t going to come to pass, but you can have faith and watch Jesus come through. He always does.

That’s the key! No matter what satan may try to do to make us throw in the towel we have to turn to Jesus and ask for strength and for his help and he will come through for us.

God said he will help us and he will strengthen us, so we can get through anything and we don’t have to take the devil’s no. The devil will try to get you to turn from God, but tell him NO! Jesus will be with you and he will give you the drive to keep going in him and to not quit! Lean on Jesus and lean on each other. As a body we are supposed to help each other make it to Heaven one day with the Father!
