Matthew 10
10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
10:17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;
10:18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
10:19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
10:20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.
10:22 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
10:23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
10:24 The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord.
10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household?
10:26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

1 Peter 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
Everyone has a reward for the things they do. Even they that do wrong to you. Dont let the devil steal your reward. Remain faithful and all things will work for the good to the Glory of Christ. God bless you in whatever you may be going thru, just know that all saints are going thru the same suffering or persecutions and attacks of the devil. We must remain in Gods love and mercy. The Spirit will guide you and give you peace that surpasses all understanding.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

Thank you so much for the passages and your thoughts. I agree. Not an easy world to live in. Some day with our Father there will be no more suffering. I just have been praying for his Armor and Breastplate of strength to face each day , since reading one of the verses sent to me. What a change in my humbleness. Praise God !

O
God never allows anything to be against us that He knows we are not able to overcome.
Greater is HE in us, than he that is in the world!!
In simple laymen's terms and example:
He won't allow the adversary to toss you 1,000 feet under water + be chained and shackled so you are stuck and cannot move until you drown and die...
^should that actually happen to anyone, it's not the spiritual enemy doing it, it's probably organized crime doing it j/s!!
Well I could understand what your saying with organized crime if I was a Big wig, but all I do is teach Fitness since right out of high school and I started doing hair at the same time. What I"m coming to understand is that when a christian goes out into this world of darkness they are like a candle . A light . That Satan , the darkness wants to dim or put out any way he can. I'm just not going to let him ! I'm going to learn and read the Bible more and more how to fight him and his evil Demons !

FitGirl, I'm all about the "process" of how we as Believers Spiritual Warfare onslaughts from the enemy. I get excited about it.
This is how I fight and it works for me:
The anecdote to what you're going through is prayer, prayer, prayer. You PUSH pray. If still attacked, give it time then pray again.
Set the Scene. Put worship/soaking music on and start worshipping Jesus for His goodness, power and glory. Remember past victories God got you through.
When you feel it working, read the Bible. Start anywhere in PSALMS. Just start reading.
Lead your heart to believe God knows your struggles and is working on your behalf. Speak God's promises from His Word over yourself. This tells the devil your faith, hope and trust is in the Lord.
Choose/Make a Decision. Do NOT look at your external circumstances; for that is the very trick the devil wants you to dwell on. Tell the devil, "I rebuke you Satan. Get out of my head"! Do NOT worry about being brave, just simply depend on Him.
Last, be joyful and rejoice! God takes His people through storms that have valuable breakthroughs at the end of it. ☺

O
Many times just being a child of God is not going to make you a target of such attacks where we can immediate notice right away. But the moment you begin doing as you read and step out in faith to begin sharing with others, makes you a target of this kind of attack because your progression in a dark sinful world is the last thing the Adversary wants.
It's like a man and woman adore one another and eventually marry. They would give their lives for one another without question or hesitation. This unity and bond seems unbreakable. Outside influences and others opinions don't even matter. So, where does the Adversary attack in this situation? He attacks by planting something within the 2 people who have this amazing bond. And one simple word from the woman to the man or vice versa can suddenly bring down this otherwise secure bond to now it becomes weakened.
I like to look at where the attacks are coming from:
If it's from my spouse, general and immediate family, friends, co-workers, complete strangers, etc. From there, I put God into action and control. I have history with everyone I mentioned but the complete strangers. And with my spouse, family, friends I can bring our strong history up and show this is not who we are in this relationship, we are better than this. And I can suggest this idea or thought is from the Adversary and we can overcome this and conquer it. To complete strangers, that is where I bind them right in my presence and order them to get thee behind me in the Name of Yeshua!!
All spiritual attacks come from our Adversary. But it is who the Adversary is able to use to attack me that I get a clear picture of and understand how it can be handled.
But typically, my attacks come the more I press to know and be with God and it leads me to share Him with others. When I am just being a couch potato not studying and praying, I am hardly ever attacked because I present no threat to my Adversary. This is my spiritual gage. I know when I am not being attacked, it's when I am not doing much for God. Oh, but when the doors fly open and it seems all hell has broken loose upon me, I know I am stepping on the enemies toes by allowing God to move and manifest into lives the Adversary had been controlling!!
