I believe that other good things would have happened too, if the

Chicago, Illinois U.S.A.
Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
I
Thessalonians 2:18 KJV
Wherefore
we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan
hindered* us.
*Hindered- Greek: Egkopto (Eng-kop-to): Impede, detain;
hinder.
Our enemy is always looking for ways to stop the work of The Lord.
Diversion:
II
Corinthians 4:4 KJV
In
whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which
believe not, lest The Light of the Glorious Gospel Of Christ, who is
the image of God, should shine unto them.
I
John 2:15,16 KJV
15
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any
man love the world, the love of The Father is not in him.
16
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of
the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of The Father, but is of the
world.
Deception:
II
Thessalonians 2:2,3 KJV
2
That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by
spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of
Christ is at hand.
3
Let no man deceive you by any means..."
Doubtful
Mind:
Romans
14:21-23 KJV
21
It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing
whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
22
Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that
condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
23
And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of
faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
Double
Mindedness:
James
1:8 KJV
A
double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
Matthew
6:24 KJV
No
man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love
the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye
cannot serve God and mammon (money).
Darkness:\
Isaiah
1:10 NLT
Listen
to The Lord, you leaders of Israel! Listen to The Law of our God,
people of Israel. You act just like the rulers and people of Sodom
and Gomorrah.
Isaiah
5:20 KJV
Woe
unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for
light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet
for bitter!
Deadness:
James
2:26 KJV
For
as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is
dead also.
Delay:
Luke
9:59-62 KJV
59
And He said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer
(permit) me first to
go and bury my father.
60
Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and
preach the kingdom of God.
61
And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go
bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
62
And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow,
and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
What
is the answer to all of this opposition, it is prayer!
I

Seek
The Lord and His strength, seek His face continually.
Matthew
26:41 KJV
Watch
and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is
willing, but the flesh is weak.

And
He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to
pray, and not to faint;

Praying
always with all prayer and supplication in The Spirit, and watching
thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
I
Thessalonians 5:17 KJV
Pray
without ceasing.
Prayer:
Romans
8:34-39 KJV
34
Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that
is risen again, who is even at The Right Hand Of God, who also maketh
intercession for us.
35
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or
distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or
sword?
36
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are
accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that
loved us.
38
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to
separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
II
Timothy 1:12 KJV
For
the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not
ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is
able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.
Hebrews
7:25 KJV
Wherefore
He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by
Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.
