Our significance or insignificance is related to who we follow

Our personal impressions of declining influence can daily hang around in our thoughts

We can get spun out with this & that in our experience

This lends to self-deprecation & why bear false witness.

Without Christ we are ineffective & can do nothing that has real meaning or lasting qualities

We’re exposed & time is chasing through our hands

The grim reaper plots to rob us & distort us of our eternal design of intimacy with Jesus

But Jesus says Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents & scorpions & over
all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

So how do we look & experience what God has given to us.

First we have the promise of safe passage as we walk on snakes & scorpions.

Shoot, face it, poisonous devil filled reptiles & insects are on the rise with mind boggling destruction

Only in Christ is there protection from every assault of the Enemy.

Does that means No one can put a hand on us? Yes, in Christ everything is good

What the evil one designs for our destruction. God designs for our good

Our significance & influence is not in us but in Jesus

So we pray in His name.
We count it all joy
We rejoice evermore
We in everything give thanks
We pray without ceasing (we pray with persistent perseverance) never giving up

We do what Jesus called us to do:

Leave your nets (leave all the soul traps) & follow Jesus

Lord, even the demons are subject unto us

(along with all their demonic traps)
through Your name. Lk 10:17
