It’s true you know. Many times the devil will use the most insignificant, the Itty Bitty things of life, to trip us up.

Have you ever considered just how many promises, instructions, etc. are in the past tense in scripture? This thought led me to – how many times do we go to the Lord for what we already have!?! All that’s necessary for us to do is to act on what we’ve already been given! The problem
