“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:18).

The devil is a master at taking advantage of our lack of revelation to wreck havoc in our lives. While God requires you to get revelation so as to get on board with Him and His agenda in your life, the devil thrives on your ignorance. God’s people are destroyed, not because the devil is powerful, but because they are ignorant (Hosea 4:6). You must not be ignorant about what God is doing this season; you must gain the right perspective.

You must see every satanic activity around your life as a signal to a divine activity somewhere that you need to log into. You must learn to never be carried away by what the devil is doing but focus on what God is doing. You must separate distraction from destiny. You must learn to live life in such a way that you don’t fall for the devil’s “distractive battles”.

When God is working your promotion, that’s when you would often see the devil bring all manner of issues at your place of work. When God is working to grow your Church, that’s when you would see the devil trying to scatter the flock you currently have. When God is working to move your home and family to the next level, that’s when you would see the devil trying to raise issues between you and your spouse.

When God’s revival fire is about to break forth in the world, that’s when you would see the devil bring #Covid-19 into the world. The question is this; will you focus on what the devil is doing, or you would look beyond it and see what God is doing? Never forget this; behind what the devil is doing is what God is doing. We must let our perspective be guided as we focus on what God is doing.

Gaining the right perspective will help you to focus on the right things. It would help you to focus on God and what He is doing. It would help you to stop the devil and position yourself for the manifestation of God in and around your life. This is how to operate at a place of advantage in life and destiny. This is how to confuse the devil. This is how to get God to hasten His word to perform in your life. This is how to step into a better, bigger and brighter year 2020. May this and many more be your reality this season in Jesus name!!!

May the Lord hasten His word to perform in your life as you enjoy a Super Amazing year 2020 to the glory of God in Jesus name!
