Romans 8:31 (NKJV) 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
As I woke this morning, I heard, “if God is for us, who can be against us?”.
I knew right away that I needed to write about this; to bring encouragement and reassurance to anyone who is going through trials or possibly waiting on God for deliverance from something you’re facing.
The word of God tells us that if we wait on Him, He will strengthen us.
Isaiah 40:31 (NKJV) 31 But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
Waiting can be one of the most difficult things to learn to do. But it is a necessity that we learn to wait; and to wait patiently and expectantly.
We know from messages that we have received recently that many are trusting God, waiting on Him to deliver them. And there are likely many others who have not written that are also waiting on Him and trusting Him.
So, we exhort you today. Be encouraged in Him.
Yes, trials come. They happen to all of us at one time or another; sometimes multiple times in a specific season.
But take heart! Remember what Jesus said about this.
John 16:33 (LSB) 33 These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”
Take these words to heart. And take whatever steps He is showing you to take, even if it simply means to sit as His feet and worship Him.
Seek Him ardently, with zeal, and a genuine passion to know Him and learn of Him.
And if that pursuit is sincere and pure, not only will we find Him, but we will find His peace as well; the peace that surpasses all understanding.
Go. Walk the path He has set before you, even if it is fraught with trials and difficulties. And know that He is with you.
We love you all.
