Image


 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:  But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.                                                                                                                               Luke 22:31,32

Good Morning! Today is a day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. I was blessed this morning with the peace of God concerning the time that we are in. The blessing reached me through the word of God out of Luke Chapter 22 starting in verse 31 through verse 32. It paints an image that while Jesus was dealing with Simon(Peter) that the desire of the enemy(devil) was to sift him  as as wheat. Think about it when you sifted as wheat you will be tossed  all over the place. As a result of the process the wheat lands everywhere. Moving through the rest of this scripture Jesus informs Peter that he will let Him down . Our Lord prayed for his faith which would included his conversion to Christ in order to strengthen us.(brethren)
The image that the Lord impressed upon me is the victory  belongs to Him.  He is in control. As a result of it He will get the glory. There are many images presented to us in His word that reinforce this truth(Jonah 2:3-9, 2 Chronicles 7:14 Matthew 21:28-31) Be encouraged that the image presented by the god of this world is a distorted one. It is completely upside down from the image presented by the word of God . Our end(future) is greater than our past.(Revelation 7:9) Fall on those knees and bless Him!!  We gonna be allright !!Amen

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;  And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.                                                                                           Revelation 7:9-10
