PARABLE:  
OLD thorny plants can easily pierce plastic gloves that younger thorns can't penetrate. 
Recent gouges & punctures on my arms are noticeable 
as I play guitar + keyboard at worship services or in bands. 
When anyone asks about my unplanned piercings I just say   
 "The locust trees won some battles, but in the end, I won the war."
 We laugh.....   
 It was a *JOY** to drag those cut branches off to the burn pile... 
causes of pain to be gone forever! ...
 

SO WHAT ??
ONE DAY the Causes of pain in our Life on Earth will be gone-- Forever! ... 
The 7-word summary of God's Bible has Simplicity: 
 
 "IN THE END,  We Win,  with Him."

What does LORD God say ?? 
James 4:7-8a, RUN to God!
"Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you."
 
First John 4:   (NKJV)
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God
because many false prophets have gone out into the world.  
By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. 
 
And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
 
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world
They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
 

Prayer: 
LORD God who is named YHWH (You said in Isaiah 42:8 Hebrew),
Sometimes I feel like giving up.
Sometimes Satan feels stronger.
HELP ME REMEMBER:  GREATER ARE YOU by far than this ANGEL You'd created, who rejected Your loving care and turned into what Jesus called in John 8:44 THE DECEIVER, 
THE FATHER OF ALL LIES.
I run to YOU.... James 4:8.  Help me to resist all temptations to give up.  I trust You.
