I can remember growing up back in the day, getting ready for school, and I would never miss an episode of Transformers, so when they remade the Transformers to a movie (3times over) I could not be more excited! The epic battle of Good vs. Evil, featuring the Autobots and the Decepticons. Similarly we have a battle going on within us, for our soul salvation. One of my favorite quotes in the movie, is " No victory, no sacrifice." You see chances are if you have been saved long enough and you are still carrying your cross and walking out your salvation, then you are going to have heartaches, pains, troubles, trials, you name it. Those struggles and difficulty are directly proportioned to the level of faith that you have in you. You see there is a saying, " to much is given, much is required." You see even in dealing with spiritual principles this still applies. Jesus said it best in Luke 12:48; But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. Know this, the more the resources you have the more responsibility God will require of you in how you use them. You can sit back and live a life of just being and going through the motions, or you can live a life full of what the Lord has for you down here and as a result, know that if God has you on display for his good and the good of all his church, the devil will all so have you on display as a target to heal, steal, and destroy.
