Bring me back to you

Posted on by asherdc89

Lord, your adversary and enemy of souls has corrupted the simplicity of my faith. He has over complicated it with misery and woes. 

I am entangled in his deceitful web. I’m about to be devoured as he desires to break me down with his venom before slowly drinking the life out of me. Feeling as though my life is steadily slipping away. As I am in and out of consciousness, i have glimpses of your love. Remembering how things use to be. The more I try by my own efforts and strength to break free, the more I feel weaker and drained.  I’m intoxicated with his venom of lies, which has impaired my judgement, and I can’t let it be set into my soul. For it cast doubts against your love, and makes good and evil indistinctive, ultimately leading to death. Causing me to struggle to believe that you love me.

God save me out of the devil’s web of deception. Let not the venom of his lies set in. Sober my mind from its intoxication. And give me wisdom and understanding.

Bring me back to you my Lord and my God. Bring me back to the place that I once knew as a little child into the bed of faith prepared for me in accordance to thy word. Comforting me like only You can. Bring me back to the sweet intimacy of your love. Where your face shines upon me. And the touch of your breath is like the wind gently refreshing me. Fill me with the innocence of childlike wonder and excitement. Seeing the beauty of your love through life. Bring me back to the feeling where things will be alright again. And restore my faith in your love for me. In Jesus Christ name I pray amen.

Since 2010, I've experienced promptings, encouragement as well as assistance from the Holy Spirit. The promptings led me to the word of God. This was the start of my own personal journey as I sought after the truth. God was then calling me as I sought after the truth according to His word. The truth was leading me to the decision to give my life to Him. I gave my life to God on the 28th of January 2012. Instantly, I had the desire to share with others the truth of God, that God is a God of love, truth, righteousness, holiness, mercy and justice. I couldn't keep something like this to myself in a lost and dying world, a world in a fallen state, and a world steeped in confusion concerning the view of who God is. My journey wasn't without struggle though, I realised through suffering we come to know God. To not only be humble, but to be empathic and not detached from people who are suffering. Sometime in 2012, God inspired me to become a writer just after my prayer to fulfill my purpose, the purpose of the reason of my existence. My prayer was a reflection of Isaiah 43:1-7. So I started writing essays pertaining to His word. I shared what I wrote with my family and friends. Therefore, the aspiration to help people globally, came with the realisation to give God the honour and the glory. To be part of making a difference. The inspiration to start blogging was impressed upon me to do. Through prayerful guidence, I believe God has led me to this point, which I believe is for His glory.
