Whose fighting for you?

Do not be afraid of the nations there, for the LORD your God will fight for you.’ (Deuteronomy 3:22 NLT)

Are you staring at mountains that seem too large to overcome in your life? Have you lost hope that you will ever conquer the 'giants in the land'? There is good news today. Fear not! Yes that is right, do not be afraid or discouraged.

Why?

"But my future is uncertain. I lost my job and I can't pay bills or have enough to get by". Another says, "I have just been diagnosed with cancer and I have only been given two years to live". Still another says, "if God is so good why did He allow my family to be taken from me?"

If you are a child of God today then you have no reason to fear. Though we will walk through the valley of the shadow of death, fear not. For God will be with you. God himself will FIGHT for you. You need only to stand in a place of faith and trust. Is it not His word that says you will overcome by the blood of the lamb? Does it not say that we are more than conquerors? Does it not also say that He promises to work all things to the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purposes? Ah.

There is a catch...it's called surrendering your life to God. The bible says that all who are children of God will confess with their mouths and believe in their hearts that Jesus Christ is Lord. If you belong to Him then He will FIGHT for you. That is a promise. If you do not yet belong to Him I urge you to seriously consider giving your life and heart to the Only God who can forgive your sin and give you a clean heart and conscience. Time is short, life is serious. Eternity is even more serious. It is around the next corner. Don't wait.

We are promised trials and tribulations in this life, so don't blame God for your hardships. Thank Him for giving you the strength to walk through them. He promises that you will forever be with Him in total freedom and joy when this momentary life is over.

Press on then, face the giants head on. God Himself will
Fight for you!
