Have a lot of things happened in your life that are not the will of God? Those things are like sour grapes. You wish you had never experienced them. They happen at a time in your life before you were walking in authority. Authority is needed to see God's will come about in your life. The truth is, God's will is so much better than our past experiences where the devil took advantage of our perceived powerlessness. God uses His extravagant goodness to offend our mind so He can get to our heart to restore.
Many times God gives warnings before evil comes. But if we view ourselves as powerless or worse yet, that God is one causing the evil, we won't do anything in prayer to turn the situation around. God is always working to turn what the enemy meant for evil into good. We must partner with Him in turning evil plans around by resisting the enemy and his schemes.
