Christian Books – Donna Louis – New Level New Devil
As you are looking to expand your horizons and level up you will encounter many tests and challenges. This is what we call New Level New Devil.
We all have a long laundry list especially if we pray bold prayers to God of the things we want, the things we want to accomplish, and the legacy we want to leave in life. The Bible says, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.’ – Matthew 7:7. http://www.miraclebook.net
God is waiting to be gracious and grant you the things you are asking for but they first must line up with the job he placed you on this earth to accomplish and secondly you have to be ready and prepared to step into that position. When God knows you are not ready, not mature enough to handle what you are asking for he will not give it to you. Christian Books – Donna Louis – New Level New Devil
When God had Moses take command and take the children of Israel from Pharaoh and deliver them from slavery and bondage he did not take them on the easy quick course. The travel time into the promise land should have only been an eleven-day trip but because God knew this group of over two million people were not ready, he took them the long route which wound up being a forty-year journey. http://www.miraclebook.net
Another reason why the journey took so long is because of all the complaining the congregation kept doing. Gratitude will bless your life while complaining will destroy it. Instead of being grateful that they were finally free after all the years of bondage all they did was complain. They complained about the same food (manna) everyday, no water to drink, etc. to Moses all the time. God has a sense of humor and when he sends tests your way and you keep failing, he is not going to give you the desires of your heart. You must trust him, become mature and pass the tests and challenges. Christian Books – Donna Louis – New Level New Devil
For those of you that are parents you will understand this example. You purchase a new car, and your child is in love with it. The color, the new car smell, the wheels, the interior, etc. They ask you if they can drive the car. Knowing all the pit falls and negative things that could happen since they are only eleven years old you say no. This is the same process with God. He knows everything and he will not let you elevate to the next level if you are not ready for it because of the challenges (devils) you will encounter.
New devils come in all shapes and sizes. One example could be that you become a manager for a group of 50 people, and you feel very prideful because you got the promotion over other people, so you start throwing your weight around. No. this is the incorrect behavior so since God knows what you will do before even you do; he will not elevate you to the next level. You could be praying to become a highly successful author which in turn will have you doing many speaking engagements and book signings, but you have an issue with handling criticism badly. Not everyone will think you’re great and so you will come across critics, and you must be mature enough to handle that. You can’t go tit for tat with every person who doesn’t like you.

Be patient to be on God’s potters’ wheel until he has molded you into the masterpiece, he created you to be. Remember every new level has a new devil but you can do all things through Christ which strengthens you.
