Colossians 1:13
For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,
You know, when I write these, I’m letting you enter my mind. That may get a little weird sometimes. So buckle up for the ride, this just might be one of those days. Today I was reading Colossians 1:9-14. It begins with Paul telling the people how much he has been praying for them. He then instructs on how to live a holy life. Last, he reminds them of what Christ has done for them. That is where I read, “For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness.” I went, “Stop right there!”
My mind immediately went to all of those horror slasher films (no I am not a fan). I see myself being chased by the villain down an abandoned old road, then I stop and go, “Wait just a minute!” As I turn around I hear the villain reply, “Uh-Oh!’ As you can guess my next reaction is, “Yeah you better run!”
Alright, so sometimes my mind gets a bit dramatic. My point is when you find yourself in those situations where Satan is just coming at you, you don’t have to take it. You can make him say, “Uh-Oh!” Remind him just who your Father is and what He has done for you. Remember all of the situations God has gotten you through and then hang on tight to that faith He will get you through this too! Now that is a horror movie I would watch!
Lord, thank you for reminding me of all the things You have done for me. I know You will always be there! ~amen
