Hello Hillside family! I really felt urged to send this out today.
"Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith." 1 Peter 5:8
I really sense that many of us, myself included, let the enemy get small footholds in our lives. We so easily brush them off as nothing or as one of our brothers or sisters who have gotten under our skin. We often think that the other person is in the wrong or their walk with the Lord isn't strong, or one of many, many other lies that the enemy throws at us. BE ON GUARD!!! It's not truth, that's exactly what the enemy wants for us to believe.
"So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God and He will come close to you." James 4:7
We have got to first recognize that it's an attack of the enemy. And second we need to resist him. . . verbally. He has no power or authority over us. Tell Satan to GET OUT! Claim Jesus as your Lord and Savior. . . .satan and his army will tremble at even the name of Jesus. So shout it out. JESUS IS MY GOD, SATAN LEAVE!!!!
So Hillside family, this week, we all need to BE ON GUARD together, and watchout for the attacks of satan. The last part of James 4:7 says it best . . . "Come close to God and He will come close to you." Seek His face and His truth.
I love you all.
Jocelyn

Ahhh, this is so true! Thank you Joce for the encouragement. I am praying along side you this week for the Hillside family. These attacks can be small and subtle. We are one body. Let's pray for unity in the Lord! And protection from the evil one. Amen, and amen!

Jocelyn: I received a report that Satan had a team going to the coast this week and knew of your impending trip there so Marilyn and I have decided we will go in your stead and protect you from the evil buggers who will arrive the same day as you. I was also given the antedote for these attacks so we will be fine and you will not have to worry. Enjoy your time AT HOME WITH THE KIDS!! We love you. Doug and Marilyn
I knew that was you when I started reading! Thank you for paying attention to the urge to share. Amen, God give us discernment, and the strength to say our JESUS is VICTORIOUS!!! lisa g.
