TAKING INVENTORY
Today's reading: Numbers 1-4

"Take a census of the whole community of Israel by their clans and families. List the names of all the men twenty years old or older who are able to go to war." Numbers 1:2-3 NLT

Good advice, even for today.

Take a count of all you have in your favor.

Enumerate everything He's done for you and all He promises to do for you.

Inventory the spiritual strengths (gifts) He has placed within you at the time He washed your sins away.

Itemize the battles you have seen Him fight for you and the percentage of success at which He accomplished the task.

Consider taking a census yourself of all the Christian brothers and sisters who are flanking your sides at this very moment.

And when your tallying is complete--present satan with your findings. I doubt he will stay around long!
