Joy of the Lord is My Strength

I have been feeling discouraged and have a downcast spirit at the moment. I feel drained of all my energy, like it has been zapped from me. God is good and He is my strong tower, my fortress, my ever-present help in trouble. He is my deliverer, my strong tower, my every breath belongs to Him.

When life seems impossible, God makes it possible. Our strength comes from the Joy of the Lord and the Hope we have in Him.

The days of discouragement, and downcast spirit that can drained your every breath, can be overwhelming and all consuming.

This week I had a counselor tell me that I should take an psycho-analysis test, because I see spirits and talk to them. She said, she would continue to insist I take this test, but it has to be willingly. I told her, "That is o.k. I am fine, there is absolutely nothing wrong with me. And I do not understand why, as a Christian believer you would insist upon such a test. I do not understand why you do not believe in the spiritual world that surrounds us, but anyway, thank you for the suggestion, but I will pass."

These overwhelming emotions are my own, not someone or something oppressing me. My guardian angels protect me and have been instructed by God to watch out for me. I called upon the Lord and He sent his protecters/watchers to me in my time of need.

My husband who is also a Christian, hasn't said anything, but I know that he doubts my abilities and spiritual insight. He worries about me, but doesn't have a clue as the the depth of my ability to see and hear spirit-beings around me.

The war-zone is all around me, on a daily basis. I cannot even go to lunch with my friends without something happening. I went to lunch with a few friends today, and something tried to get on me. All of a sudden I felt, this shakiness come upon me like, It felt like I was low on sugar or something. I knew my sugar was not low, nor was it too high. I demanded the thing to leave me. I just wanted to scream, "Get the Hell off of me." This was a 5-7 minute episode that transpired, but the thing left me, when I demanded in the name of Jesus leave me now. Then I felt fine, I was not shaky but my normal self again.

My husband, said it correctly, "Your spirit is fighting the forces of negative spirits" Uhm, that made sense, and he said it off the wall. He didn't make any other remarks besides that.

He is exactly right though, I am so intuned with my spirit that I can tell when something is trying to get on me. It is a constant battle I am fighting.

God give me the strength to deal with this, I ran across this scripture.

Isaiah 30:15

"In repentence and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength"

I have been mediating on this scripture. "In repentence (ask for forgiveness) and rest (be relieved and peaceful) is your salvation (I will/have saved you), In quietness (be still and know I am God) and trust (trust in me) is your strength (and I will give you the strength you need to endure).
