Y’all the other day I found myself straight up rattled.

I have no idea why I was so flustered, and I didn’t even realize it until I caught myself being salty and sassy to my kids and my husband.

I had to stop and ask myself what in the world was going on. Why would the devil want me in such a foul mood?

VBS.

That’s where I was headed. And wouldn’t the devil love for me to be all kinds of cranky up in the church. And wouldn’t he love for me to get my entire family all out of sorts before they headed there as well.

In the words of every teenager across America – Sheeeeesh.

I knew what I had to do.

I had to redirect my mind in order to redirect my heart. And I had to redirect my heart in order to redirect my mind.

How?

1. Prayer

2. Praise & Worship

Right then.

Right there.

Why? Cause it works.

We have the power through Jesus Christ to put our emotions and feelings to the side. We have the power through Jesus Christ to control our space and our face. We have the power.

Don’t let the devil sabotage your spirit.

Don’t let the devil meddle with your mood.

And don’t you dare let him use you to hinder someone else’s heart.

“But You, O LORD, do not be far from Me; O My Strength, hasten to help Me!” Psalm 22:19
