I haven't been sleeping well recently, waking up between 2:30a and 4:00a. I start thinking about my to-do list at work, and then I remember other things I need to add to my list. But I feel like it is a spiritual attack on my sleep to try to get me discouraged and steal my joy.
I was telling Dalton yesterday that on the one hand, I see King David referring to God has his refuge, strong tower, etc., so I can simply rest in the goodness of God and his protection. On the other hand, is God allowing this to happen for me to learn to stand up for myself and fight back?
Dalton shared a concept of me inside a castle, and the enemy is banging on the gate. He can't get inside, but he can cause a disturbance. This visual was really helpful.
I believe I have the delegated authority to tell the enemy to stop and desist.
Father, you are my castle. I am safe within your protection. Jesus, you are the gate. Holy Spirit, please instruct me in how to issue stop and desist orders to the enemy. I love you.
