There are certain things that affect our daily living, the basis having to do with the purpose of us being here. In order to understand the following you'll need to look at your surroundings from a perspective of what we are, we are composed of a Spirit, if it were just a body then it would constitute only as a mechanism, but there is something greater that moves us. In creation man was given the gift of eternal life, the Breath of God, sin put a time clock on that Breath up until God brought to Earth of Himself, the Son of God Jesus. " I am the door..." Jesus stated. That door is back to the Father, to regain that breath of eternity. The enemy throws us adversity, because of all Creation, God chose to make us in His image... just consider the creativity that man is capable of... where would that come from... we build the telescopes and Our Father creates the Heavens for us to see. If the enemy diverts our attention from The Father, the enemy then weakens the relationship, to hurt us is an attempt to hurt Our Father. If we talk about luck, then we undermined the incredible fabric of events that have been put together as part of God's plan for us, God's favor is for good, because God is Good. When adversity and sorrow occur, it is interference with God's plan, subject to the relationship we maintain with Him. If we are weak, but keep Our Lord present in our life, He will turn that adversity into a benefit for our good, when we become stronger in our relationship with God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), we block, dodge, evade, divert, minimize the attacks. Our weapons are prayer, praise, worship, fasting, giving... all for the purpose of what God is, God is Love! It's the relationship with Your Father that will renew your spirit. Stay close to Him, for He loves His children. The Lord bless you all!
