10 Oct Disturbed In Jakarta And Abba’s Assurances

Came for business trip in Jakarta, enemy came to disturb me on the first night.

I fought with scripture for hours. I was exhausted. At one point I was telling the enemy, hey I need to sleep I got to work tomorrow lets continue the fight tomorrow. Anyway eventually I fell asleep meditating on verses.

For the rest of the nights it was good, no more disturbance.

During morning prayer, I was reminded the importance of scripture memory. It is our sword against the enemy. Build up our “scripture central bank”!

Separately in my time with God, not related to the disturbance, was also crying out to Abba that when I see Jesus I hope to say I have finished the race well and He say, “Son, you have done well”. However I was crying out to Abba that I cannot do it with this sinful heart and flesh, Abba help me.

Our daily bread devotional spoke to me through Isaiah 41:10

So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

I took time from work and selected randomly a church to visit. I went to Maris Stella Cathedral (Jakarta). The Cathedral was closed but somehow I managed to enter through one unlocked door and spend couple hours reading bible and praying. I was weeping a lot. The Lord chastised me through many verses in Malachi.
