What does it mean to change the narrative? It means we need to change the collective story we tell ourselves in order to support a thing.

We tell ourselves stories that don't go along with the Word of God and we believe them to be true! [Romans 12:2] 

There is a war going on! The devil, the enemy, has been on his assignment to do exactly what John 10:10 says: “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. 11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.”

There’s a comparison of the devil to a lion: lions go after the young, weak, sick, and the stragglers. 

The devil loves it when God’s people get discouraged, depressed, isolated, down on themselves or others because he enjoys pouncing on their vulnerabilities!

That’s why we are told to be alert and watchful. 

When we’re alert or sensitive, we’re ready for what’s coming. We have a plan in tact to combat the forces of the enemy. 

Not only do we have HIS Word on the matter, we’ve been given a word for this hour to EXPECT THE OPEN HAND OF GOD in the midst of chaos & disorder.
