Devilish Ways

John 6:70 (KJV) – “Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?”
     Claim all the victories now… walk in favor with your head up …don’t worry about the devilish people or situations you encounter each day. Remember that in your daily walk if you don’t met the devil head on , then you might be walking in the same direction he is going. 
    Jesus did not pick his disciples haphazardly nor did he just select the twelve first come –first serve.  After much prayer he started to assemble his team. He knew beforehand that Judas Iscariot was a bad seed, yet he allowed him into the ranks. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Jesus was not naïve or foolish to have Judas in his inner circle. There was purpose and plan and Judas played an important role in helping the other disciples and followers of Christ see the magnitude and depth of God’s grace and mercy. 
     Use the harsh, unsavory, down-right abrasive people in your life just like fine sand paper. The more they rub up against you and go against your grain the smoother and more polished and beautiful you become. God knows and allows only the right amount of pressure to be applied to you to bring out your best. So don’t focus on the devils in your life…they will always be there…keep an eye on them but let your concentration be placed on the wonders and awe of God. 
     Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a power-packed GREAT day! Don’t be distracted – stay focused on your purpose! Be blessed! Dr. JoAnn
