Fiddlesticks... is an older word I was introduced to in the Cayman Islands. Many years ago it was commonly used to express being annoyed, irritated, even angered with the nonsense of others.
It reminds me of how the enemy has a plan to fluster and frustrate its opposition. It's usually part of the enemies agenda to use whoever and whatever it takes to discourage and distract you from its trap. Don't let them get the best of you... like a spider, they're banking on you to not notice the "webs" they've strategically weaved with you in mind.
For an example, we've been seeing this for months, in the media and on social media, dealing with this presidential race. But it's nothing new, the enemy, behind the scenes, has worked this way for a long time. Noticed how he manipulated the atmosphere way back in the days of Ezra... "The people of the land tried to DISCOURAGE the people of Judah. They troubled them in building, and HIRED counselors against them to FRUSTRATE their purpose..." (Ezra 4:4-5).
He was determined to discourage or stop their work, so they HIRED others to frustrate them. The word frustrate means to "fragment"... he wanted to fragment or divide their PURPOSE, so they would get frustrated with one another and quit. MANY are on the enemies PAYROLL today... they have a mission and they want you, and those building with you, to be torn apart and divided in your agenda. Don't let them irritate you and get between you and the ones you love.
All this "stuff" you hear and have read about is designed and orchestrated to make you throw up your hands and quit... they would love for you to quit doing what's right. Don't let them get to
