“Satan blocked our way” 1 Thess. 2:18

Jesus said in Matthew 13:19 When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart.

Whenever we attempt to practically follow Jesus we will encounter obstacles.

When have you experienced a nudge, an impression to take a step forward with Jesus?

Set aside some time to pray and read the Bible?

• Have you ever been more exhausted? More distracted?

Connect with your neighbor?

• Could life be any more busy? Why am I so drawn to other stuff?

Make amends with someone?

• What’s up with the increased bitterness and indifference?

Serve outside your comfort zone? Dreams in your heart to make a difference?

• Why the waves of anxiety? Inadequacy? Fear of the unknown?

Take a few moments to get in sync with Jesus and identify the nudge or impression. Receive His strength. Take a step forward today!
