DEFENSIVE POSITIONING

To be centred in Him is the only way to keep the ego at bay. The ego will have its own thoughts and feelings which will conflict with your spirit man. In theses times do not listen to your ego which is threatened but the spirit man who is hid in Christ. Christ is the only One who can keep you sane in conflict. In conflict it is the best time to die to the dictates of your ego. The ego will always think in terms of personal gain. It will never sacrifice itself for another. Death to the ego is the only way to win the spiritual warfare. In the Spirit you will have wisdom to know how to respond in difficult times. The facts of the matter are unimportant. It is what God wants that matters. God wants that all men be saved and freed from the clutches of the ego and the devil. Many suffer silently because they are in defense. They are in prisons of their own making. They have built such firm walls that no one can reach them. They feel safe in their own prison and they will die in it. Defenses are like walls and they keep you captive and keep the light from reaching you. True freedom is in Christ for He come in and breaks through the defenses and lets His light shine through. The captive is freed from his prison and now can walk in the light of peace and joy.
