Every believer is born with unique purpose. As God created a purpose for each believer He also gave unique gifts and grace to fulfill that plan. When a person lives in the high call upon their life they will soar! They feel satisfied and fulfilled living out their destiny! The enemy hates when a believer is boldly walking out their purpose & plan. He does all that he can to MOVE the Christian away from their destiny. During an attack he will overwhelm them with thoughts and desires to give up and abandon their post! This is one of his greatest purposes behind spiritual attacks.
As the enemy attacks the life of a believer he begins to give them reasons to give up on the very thing that God called them to. This is one of his master tools. He releases CONFUSION, SHAME, INTIMIDATION and a variety of vile schemes to create a cloud of uncertainty. A person who is under attack will find themselves questioning the road that they are traveling. Usually, they begin to reexamine decisions that were once crystal clear. Oftentimes a person in the midst of an attack will question prophetic words, spiritual breakthroughs and significant experiences that they had. This is a step towards moving backwards in the spirit.
In order to FINISH you must be willing to fight some spiritual battles along the way! 1 John 4:4- declares that the greater one is living in you! You have been granted authority over the powers of hell (Luke 9:1). You can BIND up and BREAK the works of the enemy over your life. You must also keep THE VISION before you. What has God said to you in the secret place? This is key to being a FINISHER. Keep prophetic promises before your eyes and PARTNER with the declaration of The Lord. Maintain your spiritual FIRE by continued DEVOTION- daily time with God in the Word, Worship & Prayer, God has not BEGUN the work in you to leave it incomplete. He wants to EMPOWER you to go the distance and FINISH STRONG.

The Apostle Paul was able to write in 2 Timothy 7: "I have finished my course." He had spiritual endurance! He was attacked often yet maintained the fire of God on the inside and remained faithful to the call upon his life. I believe God wants to raise up a generation of FINISHERS! It is one thing to BEGIN a course, it is another thing to COMPLETE a course.
