Within the space of waiting!
Hello, all Royal Prayer Guards!
I pray all is well with you and your family. Thank you always for your prayers and loyalty to our heavenly Father!
How to live through life situations!
This prayer focus provides practical information on how to live through difficulties and various situations we all encounter.
The problems and answers!
Do you have any problems today? The answers are found in our inheritance. (God’s word)
What can those in Christ do when problems arise? The answer, turn our inheritance into kinetic energy by doing God’s word.
Realize that all God’s promises are in our inheritance.
A key portion of God’s word!
Hebrews 6:11-12
And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, 12 that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
If we cannot see it (whatever we are believing) faith will be needed.
Romans 8:25
But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience and composure.
Within the space of waiting!
In Hebrews 6:12 the attacks and battles in our mind (Thought life) are within the “and”. It is within that space when we are waiting that the attacks and battles take place.
In that space of time, our faith is being tested and it is producing patience, whether we know it or not.
Our responsibility is to let patience have its perfect work. Easy to say but hard to do.
Understanding our enemies!
Understand that the enemies (Satan, demons, and the unrenewed mind) are attempting to take away what is sown in our hearts. This is considered spiritual warfare and it is a battle for sure!
Mark 4:15
The ones along the path are those who have the Word sown [in their hearts], but when they hear, Satan comes at once and [by force] takes away the message which is sown in them.
I consider these attacks and battles that are within our space of waiting, as persecutions or sufferings. Jesus experienced the same thing when He was tempted.

Why the persecution or suffering?
It is because of God’s word in us. If the enemies can take the word out of us through doubt, fear, and worry… we will not receive what God said He would do.
Mark 4:17
And they have no real root in themselves, and so they endure for a little while; then when trouble or persecution arises on account of the Word, they immediately are offended (become displeased, indignant, resentful) and they stumble and fall away.
This is how the enemy works. Very simple!
They speak the opposite of what God says in His word.
The believer's challenge!
We as believers in Christ need to know God’s word to know who is speaking to us in our thoughts.
The enemy speaks doubt, fear, worry…, and “what if…”, “but …”, “Now what are you going to do…?”, and so on.
Suggestion for application:
Destroy, and demolish, all wrong thoughts and replace them with God’s word.
