I think that nothing moves me more than the things other believers in their journeys talk about. The very things that personally touch my spirit. Things I had to walk and suffer through that are now in my rear view of memory. Memory is a powerful thing.

Today I read a comment from a sister in the Lord who spoke about her prayer life. How her house feels like a construction yard, there is constant noise, and the more she prays the more she is afflicted on every side. She wondered if "this was a lesson that God is her true sanctuary?"

The answer to this is yes. This is a lesson that God allows. In fact I believe that He allows it with most of those that endeavor into a real life of prayer and commit to it. It takes the enemy a short while to take notice of that kind of believer who makes up their minds to pray. Then he stands up and takes notice and the attacks begin.

However, the Lord is in control of it the whole time. He is training people of prayer to not seek for perfect environments of quiet solitude, but to develop the power in noise, clamor and all kinds of attacks from the enemy.

If we live in perfect environments in places of prayer and devotion, there will be no growth at all. There will be no arm of strength developed to bend spiritual bows of iron. There will be little He can entrust those people with in service because nothing has been tested. In the most imperfect environments is where we must fall to our knees and grow there.

If this is speaks to you, take heart, God is with you.

"The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them." - Deut. 33:27.

"And is thy way of love so near to me? Then by that way I come; I come to Thee." For to Him who is everywhere, men come not by traveling but by loving." - Selected.
