Letting the Spirit Speak to My Heart

Sometimes I get weighted down thinking about things that happened in the past. Sins that I have committed against God. Especially ones that have led to long lasting consequences. 
It’s during these times that Satan is seeking to devour my heart the most. I fight him, but sometimes I’m just too weak. I lose patience and in my frustration or sorrow I lash out with words that should not be thought let alone said. Yet, God is faithful. He has and continues to write His word upon my heart and as I struggled this morning and through last night with such thoughts as unworthiness. I was reminded of this verse:

I love how Father speaks directly to my heart.

My Understanding:
My weapons against the warfare that Satan is waging for my soul is not carnal (flesh), but in God the weapon is mighty! In Him every argument is cast away and every stronghold pulled down. In Him alone is my obedience to Him fulfilled!  I therefore must bring EVERY THOUGHT captive unto, obedience to Jesus Christ. 

My Life Lesson:
I MUST turn from the carnal to seek the spirit of Christ in my life. I must take my thoughts captive (to be in control of my thoughts) unto obedience to Christ Jesus. I MUST, not allow Satan to have ANY stronghold in my life, and fully and unequivocably trust that my obedience will be fulfilled in Him.
I must remember: I am made worthy in His blood.
