Challenges on every side but God's grace is sufficient. Not knowing what tomorrow will bring, we awake daily and embrace a new day, some times to battle with yesterday's challenges or even face new ones, temptations on every corner of life but in all this like we shared previously God has given us power to decisions and choices. The choices we make is the mirror that shows us who we are paying allegiance to; that is we are either serving God's or serving the devil. Satan is no respecter of persons but he respects the decisions and choice that we make. If we say no there is no way he will sneak into our lives. He only gets access into our lives or your life only when you sign up with him, then you will own a secret password into his world and fantasies but it is never too late when you still have breath. Our God is a God of a second chance, He says; turn to me and do good and see if I will not open the flood gates of heaven for you and make you my pride in the earth. At that point every step you take and move you make will all be in Him and through you He's Kingdom shall be established wherever and whenever you go. A friend of mine posted something which I thought would be helpful to you as well. He said this; find the things that stir your affections for Christ and saturate your life in them. Find the the things that robe you of that affection and walk away from them. That is the Christian Worship Life.

Speak the language Heaven Understands |
Col 3:17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them. Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Have you ever asked yourself why you do what you do. Some times you find yourself doing stuff and you are really not sure how it came about. Why do you do what you do? The Bible is clear about this; In word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ not as a people pleaser but one who pleases God. As long as what you are doing is pleasing unto God, He says I will even make your enemies live at peace with you. Simply this is what happens; when we exalt the Risen Lord in our midst, then darkness is exposed by the light. Satan can't stand it when God gets all the glory. When we are yielded to God in worship, then God is able to show Himself strong on our behalf. Once you learn this and the language of heaven and walk in the Word, you will know what to say for heaven to respond. And this is the victory that overcomes even our Faith.
