The world is not ready for righteousness. The reason I say this is because there’s a suffering you endure continually, an attack by the enemy that affects everything and everyone around you till fear takes hold and stops you in your path. It’s a fear unlike no other. The enemy attacks you through your love ones (family, children, spouse, brothers, sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.) your work, friends, aquaintence, even to your mind (mental illness) and body (sickness and decease). You cry out for God for death, especially when all hell start breaking loose in your life. You know and feel it within your heart and spirit that this is not normal for the simple reason, everything in your life was fantastic until you’d experience this divine encounter, and now you are in a constant battle, like never in your life for no apparent normal reason, according to Ephesians 6:12 ” For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

No one but God is righteous, but we could always strive to be and do that which is like, humility, love, compassion, forgiveness, patients, understanding and doing on to others as you’d want done unto you is easy to do. But in a resistance world to righteousness, if you’re not anchored strong and firm in the Lord the enemy will cause your goodness to break you with his demonic attack.

I can say it now with bold assurance, “I am Empress, I am woman and I am Proud!” But it took me twelve years to get back my faith and courage to rise above the pit of fear and the hell I felt my in. “Broken! So broken was I.” It’s one thing when the enemy attacks your flesh, which is already weak, but he breaks your spirit through love, especially with those you hold dear to you. A crown of thorn was placed upon Jesus’s head and like a knife through his heart, he watch those he love and helped deny him, even lied on him. Let the love of God be the number one love for all you have. For example, see everything you have like a gift is from God to whom you love and love’s you. “You shouldn’t love the gifts more than the one who gave you them!” The devil would no longer be able to hurt you through your love. “Put God, first!”

Not only does the enemy want to isolate you because of fear, but he want to shot you up from speaking God’s truth and doing His will. God will send the angels into the cave to minister to you where you are isolated, tired, fearful and hungry. He will give you all needed to comfort and deliver you, and then resurrect you into his will and purpose, at his appointed time. 1 kings 19 when Elijah runs away from Ahab and Jezebel. In Matthew 4 Jesus is tested in the wilderness by the devil and after fasting forty days and nights in which he overcame and then the angels came and attended to him.

Matthew 16:24-26 Then Jesus told his disciples, ” If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it… When I meditate on this passage of scriptures it enables me to understand cost of following Jesus is priceless, but psychologically, wow! Jesus wasn’t taken to the cross yet, when he spoke of this. I could just imagine the reluctance his disciples would have felt, if they truly understood what he meant by, take up your cross. To see what happened to Jesus carrying his cross, would of been a turn off for sure, none of his disciples would of followed him then. They all scattered in fear when Jesus was arrested, so how could they have truly understood the meaning, to the lose their lives for his sake. The emotional pain and sacrifice even to your death is the cost. In other words you are up against an invisible enemy you can’t see and you have to be able to put your faith and trust in God for guidance through it all, surrender. Like walking through a pitch black forest not knowing what’s going to jump out at you to harm you. Taking that leap of faith, for the shield and guidance of God that if you do die, you’re guaranteed to go to heaven.
