"The success of the gospel exasperates its enemies, and it is a good sign that it is getting ground when the powers of darkness are enraged against it." Matthew Henry Commentary from John 4.
When you feel the enemy turning up the heat; stay in the game, stay focused, head up, chin high, be alert, take small steps forward - Our God is the God who exasperates His enemies! God will see you through because you are His and he's responsible for you. He won't leave you hanging, forsake you, or forget about you. He surely won't, He's the one who called you and like a Good Shepard He'll watch out for you, protect you, and lead you and yours forward to a place where the waters are still & the grass is green!
Consider this 3 part approach of living out a successful Gospel in your life- Especially when darkness enrages against you:
1. Accept the truth
2. Tell the truth
3. Be the truth
