WHO WILL FIGHT FOR US?

It’s easy to feel alone while fighting difficult circumstances. It’s easy to feel forgotten in the middle of a pandemic. It’s easy to feel lost when the normal walkway has been shutdown. It’s easy to feel helpless when you face a problem so big and there is nothing you can do. It’s easy to feel these emotions in this current season.

Maybe today was one of those days when you woke up and felt overwhelmed by a situation. You feel powerless, insignificant, and alone. Questions like, “How are we supposed to get through this? Do we have anyone who can help us?” roll through your mind. 

Elisha’s servant felt overwhelmed when they were surrounded by an enemy army early in the morning. It was one of those days where he woke up to a difficult circumstance. He didn’t even have a chance to make a cup of coffee and start the day off right. The day started off in a panic.

I am sure the servant of Elisha felt helpless and fearful all at the same time, but the prophet Elisha could see what the servant could not. Elisha saw the Armies of God surrounding the enemy’s army. Elisha knew that God was fighting for them. The Armies of God are greater than any problem or struggle we may face today.

When you feel alone, trust God is near.

When you feel forgotten, believe that God loves you.

When you feel lost, know that you have always been found.

When you feel helpless, watch God do the miraculous. 

God is fighting for us!

What are the areas in your life that you need God to open your eyes to see His purpose?

Prayer:

Lord, help me see.

Help me see your purpose.

Let me see your hand at work.

Let me see the clear pathway.

Amen.
