"Then the Lord will be seen over them, and His arrow will go forth like lightning.” -Zechariah 9:14 (NKJV)I’ve always been amazed in scripture how in every human encounter, especially battle scenes, there’s always ARROWS but God only used His ONE ARROW. 30,000 enemies? Nah, He still only uses ONE. That's MY God!!!

Believe me, my dear- there's no one like Jesus.This is more of a victory post than it is a pretty one. . I haven’t really Bible Journaled in over a month. I’ve been in and out of hospitals, surgeries, doctors and taking care of 2 households. Plus this medication and new food lifestyle of mine leaves me unstimulated. I don’t want to do anything except sleep. I don’t want to paint, I don’t want to read, I don’t want to watch anything.... total apathy. And that’s what the devil wants. He wants us to be apathetic and lethargic- to not care or even notice that we don’t care. . But I gotta tell ya- when I know that something is a legit spiritual battle and not a flesh battle- it makes me want to fight even harder. Did I want to do this? No. Did it take me 2 weeks to do a simple layout? Yes. Do I want to do this any more? Honestly, No. Do I feel like quitting journaling? Yes. Am I going to? No. I may get tired and exhausted. I may not physically be able to do much anymore. I may get distracted with so many things that need to be done. I may get discouraged that I hate the season that I’m in at the moment or the perspective of future endeavors. . BUT when you do things for the Lord you do them because He wants you to do them not because when/if you feel like it. So, if you’re like me and need to get your hissy fit out of your system to get your life together on another gear then so be it. Remember that this is indeed a fight MATERIALS:
“But where shall wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?" -Job 28:12-28 (ESV)13 Man does not know its worth, and it is not found in the land of the living. 14 The deep says, ‘It is not in me,’ and the sea says, ‘It is not with me.’ 15 It cannot be bought for gold, and silver cannot be weighed as its price. 16 It cannot be valued in the gold of Ophir, in precious onyx or sapphire. 17 Gold and glass cannot equal it, nor can it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold. 18 No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal; the price of wisdom is above pearls. 19 The topaz of Ethiopia cannot equal it, nor can it be valued in pure gold. 20 “From where, then, does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding? 21 It is hidden from the eyes of all living and concealed from the birds of the air. 22 Abaddon and Death say, ‘We have heard a rumor of it with our ears.’ 23 “God understands the way to it, and he knows its place. 24 For he looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens. 25 When he gave to the wind its weight and apportioned the waters by measure, 26 when he made a decree for the rain and a way for the lightning of the thunder, 27 then he saw it and declared it; he established it, and searched it out. 28 And he said to man, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding.’” The Holy Bible, English Standard Version. ESV® Text Edition: 2016. Copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. Wisdom is not: knowing brilliant math equations or scientific facts; the vast unexplored areas of space or the deep sea; the psychological or emotional structure of humans or animals; it is not anything that can be summed up on earth. Wisdom is knowing who God is, knowing that God is all powerful, all knowing, all present and above all- Holy. He is perfect. Wisdom is giving God the reverence and glory and honor that He deserves. That is what a “healthy” fear is. It’s respect.
. It cannot be found. It cannot be bottled. It cannot be written down. It is learned. It is shared. 👌🏻 "And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules."
