  • Fighting the Lies of the Enemy During this Pandemic | Episode 3
    Anna talks about how we, as Jesus-followers should be reacting,  glorifying God & how to fight the lies the enemy is sending our way.  
    Here are some of the lies from the enemy that I mentioned in this episode:
     Lie #1: Fear. (Verses/resources mentioned: Psalm 46, Matthew 6:25, definition of panic from dictionary.com, Ephesians 6.) TRUTH: We do not need to be anxious because God knows what is best. We should not be panicking because God is bigger than this whole pandemic. Instead, we should be filling our hearts with truth from His Word & fighting the enemy with the weapons mentioned in Eph. 6!
     Lie #2: We should be discontent because we can't have our "normal life." TRUTH: This is the "normal" God is giving us right now for a reason. Let us be thankful that we have a wonderful God who is in control!
     Lie #3: We must do everything in our own strength/be in control. (Verses/resources mentioned: James 4, Proverbs 22:3, James 1:5) TRUTH: We must resist the devil and instead ask God for wisdom & have the "balance" that is mentioned in Proverbs 22. 
    Lie #4: We can't serve anyone since we can't go out of the house. We must be selfish instead. (Resources/verses mentioned: 1 Peter 4:10, Serve God During Quarantine Blog Post: https://anniewritessite.wordpress.com/2020/04/02/serving-god-during-the-quarantine/, Letter Writing Idea Post (same site under blog tab.)  TRUTH: God has called us to serve others in 1 Peter 4, and that applies to this time as well! Listen (or check out the Serving God During the Quarantine Blog Post) above for ideas on how to serve God right now!
