Sometimes we're our own cause of spiritual warfare

I feel like the imagery that we use to portray spiritual warfare is often that of a person who is drowning and is defeatedly fighting for her life beneath the surface of mighty waters. She kicks and screams only to find herself sinking further and further into the deep. The light from above becomes more faint. Hoping to gasp a breath of air to fill her weary lungs, she desperately reaches for God's hand to pull her up out of the water until she feels His familiar touch and herself being lifted from her struggle. Finally, after what had seemed to be an eternity, she breaks through the surface and is brought into the safety of her Father's arms.

But as for me, I don't feel that way- at least not this time. Just as a child walking dangerously close along the river's bank, I got too close with sin and found myself being pulled vigorously by its powerful current. As I battle for my life, for a breath of air, I am left vulnerable and weak, my body floating face-down on the water's murky surface. Unconscious, I bob along the river's bank with my lifeless arms extended from me. But by the grace of God, I'm just close enough for God to reach out for my hand and pull me out. He quickly begins CPR, pumping out the sinful, filthy water that has suffocated my lungs. I almost didn't make it, but God.

Testimony: near death, nearer to God♥️

My testimony is really something, growing up I’ve always been a chirpy child, always seeing the bright side of things. I got bullied growing up but still found love for people, even after they hurt me (all before I converted to Christ).

But my testimony isn’t my survival of physical bullying, it was dying at such a small age in my sleep, where I had already gotten stiff and had no color. every time my mom tells me this she gets this look where she’s just in deep thoughts and always talks about how God just manifested in that moment where she prayed and asked Him to bring me back, she did everything to get me to intake milk and surprisingly, God brought me back to life after that.

my second testimony was during a big stressful moment of my life, i was constantly stressed out due to a corporate and somehow contracted PVC around 2019-2020 and in 2023 before my church moved, the youth pastor there brought us up to pray for us who were sick, and when i say i felt something happened i felt it happen, i didn’t know of my healing from God until May 18, 2023.

on May 16, 2023, i got the scare of my life; one of the many fears i refused to go through as a little girl and had no other choice. i went to my dentist appointment and felt pretty good, but then during the day i felt pain in my stomach and figured i was just hungry and thought it would pass after i had eaten, my mum and i started to do walks at a mile we go to and by that time i had gotten worse and started to feel like i was going to throw up, instead of our usual prayer walks, we went to the hospital where i did throw up. i got the food poisoning controlled but the doctors were confused as to why i still had pain, they did a specific x-ray that i can’t recall the name of it where it lit up all the insides and in that x-ray they found my appendix swollen. my biggest fear was going under the knife and due to what i knew, i was fearful of the anesthesia going over the amounts, but God brought me a messenger that took me by surprise (which i won’t share).

after surgery my doctor came to ask me if i was sure i had PVCs and i was completely positive, i remember doctors telling me i needed surgery and others saying that wasn’t possible to fix it’s a forever health condition; but on May 18, 2023; i got the surprising news of my life that i was PVC free.

i later on explained to my brother and my friends how crazy God saved me, He permitted me to have food poisoning to find out i was near having my appendix exploding. this entire time i had ignored the pain where my appendix was because this entire time i thought it was air in my stomach but come to find out it wasn’t.

Jesus saved me 3 times; as a baby, as a young adult and now.

i know what non-believers are going to say; “why didn’t He not let you have that if He’s so merciful?” and what i’m honestly going to say is, it’s our fault for messing up, we’re the problem; God can alert us all He can to tell us we’re going the wrong path and it’s up to us if we harden our hearts to His voice. God gives chances, what’s the point in growing your faith if He doesn’t test your heart? what’s the point in miracles if you’re always healthy and always living an amazing life? i thought the biggest miracle was Him making my appendix not get taken out but the biggest miracle is Him allowing me to see my mistake and showing me His mercy in extending my life. God bless God, He’s amazing. God is so good and i’m forever grateful to Him for this.

“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,” - Hebrews‬ ‭3‬:‭7‬-‭8

tell me more about the sweet things Frank does pleeaassseee

ugh he’s suuuuch a sweetheart for someone who has every right to be a complete asshole to everyone <///3

Notes; hi guys I have so much other shit to write it’s actually laughable but this is what ur getting for now mostly because im unable to think about anyone else atm #sorry, enjoy!

he’s pretty old fashioned when it comes to most things; leaning his head back to look at you like you’re insane if you try to pay for anything, long legs striding right past you to open doors, a guiding hand on your waist when you’re walking together so you can keep up with him, etc. he’ll be damned if you ever do anything you don’t have to, always insistent on lending a large helping hand whenever you need one.

“Why don’t you just let me help you, huh? Always gotta have an attitude about it.” he made it sound so simple, like the act of him helping you clasp your necklace shouldn’t have you swooning like this, reeling in the rough callouses of his fingers against the back of your neck. of course he wasn’t really upset, shaking his head at your insistent remarks about being able to do it yourself. you could always tell when he was pushing you to accept the love he so thoughtfully handed to you, understanding when you needed a harsher tone or a soothing hand.

that’s just who he is; priding himself in keeping you safe and in the meantime securing every understanding he had of you in his mind, every fear, every goal, the things you’d dream about often enough to bring it up the next morning, he knew you and he knew what you needed, half the time before you knew it yourself. because that’s just who he is. that’s his job — at least that’s what he keeps telling you.

“I don’t have an attitude, but you don’t have to take care of me all the time, Frank. I can-“

“You can take care of yourself. Yeah yeah I know sweetheart, you’re real tough. I know it.” it was hard to look it right now, letting his arms squeeze around you, standing firm in your words as you melted into the strong shape of him behind you.

there were a million examples, and no matter how hard you tried to convince him, he’d do it again and again. coming back home after a rough day and cleaning himself up before picking you up from where you’d fallen asleep on the couch to take you to bed. ignoring the ache in his bones, hushing you with a kiss on your crown, and tucking you under the soft blankets ‘right where you belong’ because that’s just who Frank Castle is.
