LET. Wielded by the Holy Spirit, this tiny word had a huge impact on Martha’s life, and the adventure can be yours, too, if you just LET God be GOD.

1 Peter 5:8-9 AMPC
Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset—rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined]…
It’s work and surrender to gaze at JESUS. Yet nothing is worthier of such effort. No reward equals this reward, and that is why the enemy craves to devour your concentration, your focus.
The sole agenda, the one persistent assault of Satan, is to take your eyes from God and onto him, to keep you from seeing your transcendent Savior who is victor over all the enemy has and does!
So distraction is most often an assault from the enemy of your destiny. And many diversions are problems the enemy has sent for that purpose, just to disturb your focus. Satan wants you stirred up in fear and frustrations, in real crises and fake ones. The solution to everything life brings, is to look away from ‘ALL that would distract’ – unto Jesus. And His faith for that situation will be imparted to you. And this is also why I am spending so much time just on “fixing your eyes on Jesus.”
Passionately I want to repeat this so you will know why the enemy comes after your gaze at Jesus with a ferocious fury.
THE SOLUTION TO EVERYTHING IN LIFE COMES TO YOU WHEN YOU LOOK AWAY TO JESUS.
Be ‘strong, immovable, and determined’ that you WILL fix your eyes on Jesus!
