Shut the Door of Your Heart to Doubts—When the devil comes with his doubts and unbeliefs, shut the door of your heart. Shut your eyes so that you will not dwell upon his hellish shadow. Lift them up where they can behold the things which are eternal, and you will have strength every hour. The trial of your faith is much more precious than gold It makes you valiant to fight the battle of the Lord, “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” (Ephesians 6:12). {2MCP 676.1}

Luk dit hjertes dør for tvivl — Når djævlen kommer med sin tvivl, luk dit hjertes dør. Luk dine øjne så du ikke kan dvæle på hans djævelske skygge. Løft dine øjne op så de kan se evige ting, og du vil have styrke hver time. Din tros prøvelse er meget mere værd end guld. Den gør dig tapper til at kæmpe Herrens kamp ”Thi den kamp vi skal kæmpe er ikke mod kød og blod, men mod magterne og myndighederne, mod verdensherskerne i dette mørke, mod ondskabens åndemagter i himmelrummet” (Efeserne 6:12).
