He’ll Fight for You

There are times when God asks us to move, and there are times when he asks us to remain quiet and wait on him. There are still other times when he partners with us while we do what little we can. He does the heavy lifting, which is never hard for him. When fear threatens your trust, remember who God is. He is the one fighting for you.

Remember the power of God’s work in your life. Don’t forget what he has done or what he has saved you from. Look back at the near misses in your history. Where could things have gone drastically different? You don’t have to know what the endgame would have looked like. Simply acknowledge God’s gracious leadership in the ways he has set you free, healed you, and set you on a new path. The God who brought you up out of your bondage continues to guide you with his very near presence. He provides for you, and he will not stop leading you into his goodness. Remember to savor his love that never fades.

Whether you are sidelined or still in the battle, God has not grown weary or distracted. He knows what he is doing, and you can trust him to do it. His faithfulness never fails. Let your heart find rest in God’s power as you leave your worry at his feet. Pray for perspective to see where he is moving on your behalf. He has not left you. He is close, and he is doing what you cannot do. He is fighting your battle.

Memorize a verse that promises God’s protection and repeat it when you need a boost of courage and perspective.
