Claiming victory over fear and drawing near to the presence of God in trials and attacks – Susie Larson
The presence of God is real because our God is real. He is ever-present in our times of joy and in our times of sorrow. But what do you do when He seems distant? What do you do when you face a trial or an attack from the Enemy that feels so deep you can barely breathe?
Susie Larson is one of my heroes of the faith. She has walked many trials and battled many attacks to know and understand the Enemy’s evil schemes. In her book, Closer Than Your Next Breath: Where Is God When You Need Him Most?, Susie helps readers experience God’s trustworthiness and love—even when they feel far from Him. She states that our trials and triumphs are packed with opportunities that impact eternity and that God knows how to extract lies from our belief systems while preserving our precious hearts.
God was so very good to me to orchestrate this conversation with Susie as I was in the midst of an attack from the Enemy. After our discussion, I walked away feeling like God loved me right where I was and supplied me with the tools of the mind and heart I needed to continue to walk step by step in His presence.
So listen in as Susie and I break through the lies of the Enemy and fully grasp what it means to have the presence of God closer than your next breath.
