«And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.» 1 John 5:5 (NLT)
Do you believe that the devil exists? Many people say that he is just a legend, like a fairy tale. But he does exist. When he was on earth, Jesus spoke about him and drove him out of many people.
The devil is your enemy and mine. He wants to separate us from God forever. He also doesn’t want us to know that Jesus has forgiven us and that He can make us kind, loving, pure and perfect people. He also doesn’t want us to receive the things that Jesus gave us after dying on the cross: happiness, Heaven and eternal life.
While we are here on earth waiting for Heaven, Jesus wants us to be winners. All of us, children, and adults alike, can be more than winners! We can talk directly to Jesus and ask Him for everything that is God’s will.
Since Satan wants you to feel like a loser, he takes advantage of your sorrows to make you think that God doesn’t love you and that you are weak. Don’t let Satan take over your life.
Let’s practice!
Are you angry with a friend? Is there something in your heart that needs to be cleaned by Jesus? Are you disobeying your parents? Lying? If your little heart isn’t right, ask God for forgiveness and He will make it clean and make you a winner!
