He also calls at all hours of the day and night; hoping to distract you from your purpose. He carries with him many a temptation to stir feelings of guilt and shame.

There is no neighborhood you can move to that he will not follow. His joy comes from your lack and stumbling. He rejoices in your hurt and anger.

We cannot stay trapped indoors and accomplish our purpose. We must reach others if we are to carry out our mission.

How do we deal with these meddlesome attacks form this ill-seeking neighbor? We submit to the One who desires our well-being. Yes, we submit to His authority, His teaching, and His purpose for our life.

We also resist this enemy. For by submission to God and through resistance against our adversary, we will see satan flee.

This neighborhood is in your mind and is a battleground like no other. Give your mind what it needs to win this battle. Feast on God’s word daily, commune often with Him through prayer and live what He teaches.

Yes we could all benefit from boosting our communication skills, but in the end having a shared Mission will withstand any challenges that we face.

Your spouse, child, or friend is not to be your enemy but instead a co-laborer for Christ. How can you help each other succeed?

Jesus knew that unity was key and prayed over us in John 17:

‘“I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.”’ ~ John‬ ‭17:20-21‬

Jesus desires us to be unified like He and the Father are one! That’s unity!

Our unity is a testimony to God’s plan of redemption. How else could people across every ethnicity, culture, continent, gender, and financial background join together in one mission to love people and advance the gospel?

Have the same mind with one another according to Christ. Let us advance the gospel together!

We may excel in all those areas, but when it comes to our salvation, perfection is required and our performance won’t get us there.

There is only One who is able to perform at this level. His name is Jesus. He was and is able to save you through His finished work at the cross that paid for your sins.

In fact, He lives to make intercession for you! The Christian life is not about performance. Instead, it’s about trusting in Jesus, loving Him and others.

There will be times that we slip back into our old mindset, thinking that we need to be good enough for God. It’s one of the many reasons we need each other on this journey.

Watch out for your friends around you. Are they striving to perform? Remind them of the great rest we have in Jesus today!
