There are many enemies to the Christian walk, which can easily overwhelm us when we strike out on our own.
1. The flesh (perhaps the most deceptive). Lu 8:13
2. Satan (the most cunning) Lu 8:12
3.
a. The World (the most alluring) Lu 8:14
b. The World's system (the most persecuting) Mt 13:21

The antidote?

Psalm 17:8 (KJV) Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,

Psalm 57:1 (KJV) To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.

Psalm 61:4 (KJV) I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

Ruth 2:12 (KJV) The LORD recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust.

John 3:30 (KJV) He must increase, but I must decrease.

Exodus 15:2 (KJV) The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

Psalm 18:2 (KJV) The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

Psalm 27:1 (KJV) A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

...and many others with similar promises and admonitions.

While your waiting for Gods deliverance or maybe it’s in these scriptures! But don’t try to escape from the pain that has a purpose too. Pray and read the Bible and hang in there God wants to do a work. Pray for help, call out to him, repent and hope. Let Him close the doors. Make me right Lord Jesus. Hmfgh!
