"To Overcome when our Faith is falling"

 

 

Romans 8 (verse 31 & 32)

 

I wrote this several days ago and I must finish it due to the attack that has been on me since I began writing this:

I really needed to hear GOD this morning, I've been so down with life's situations.  Today it hit me hard as a matter of fact, for the last three days I called a friend and had to get honest about how I was feeling and sometimes it's hard for me to admit when something is wrong due to my own thinking that goes on within my mind. I think it means I'm weak not to mention the picture I've painted about who I am.  I gotta be strong and pretend everything is alright, I have to dress up the outside and God forbid I show my human side or any vulnerability but it shows in everything I do, my job, family, appointments, physically, mentally and emotionally.

 

Yet the Lord told me He spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all (Romans 8 verse 32); I often forget to speak these things to myself and to the inner person which is my soul. I've been feeling down and needing to cry to relieve myself.  The Lord talks about our pride and unwillingness to be willing to do as He speaks into our hearts.

 

When I look at my circumstance's I know that God is preparing me to be a better woman for his works.  My experiences are to help others who are going through the valley and not knowing Jesus to be their Savior, problem solver and healer of ALL things (amen). I began to speak to depression, confusion, anger and to my broken heart the things I believe in God for.  All things are possible through Jesus Christ unto him that believe.

 

Now this verse doesn't mean I go out and deliberately start doing things in the carnal world and say if God is for me who can stand against me, this stands for the the attacks and warfare of the spirit (praise God),the things that fight against me are from the inside out and without the help of God, my christian family and my praying partners it's a lost battle before it began. I stand as a living witness of God and His handy work in my life; just take a moment and look back over your life and see some of the situations you've been in and if for any reason you don't believe God is real see if you can figure out how you got through some of those situations.

In closing 2 Corinthians 1:5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolations also aboundeth by Christ; This is to confirm that when I'm suffering highly I'm on a mission for Jesus and the enemy wants to stop me before the work is done. You know I remember being in the world and it appeared that nothing was wrong, physically, mentally or emotionally and the moment I began to walk with Christ all hell broke loose but things were bad also when I was in the world the only difference, I was already living in confusion so I didn't know the difference and all looked normal; Living in the light and coming out of the darkness I began to see all things and what was normal to me became out of the ordinary. So I say to you  know that your suffering is not in vain, God sits high but he looks low and there is no prayer's that go unheard.

 

All Glory and Praise to the Lord God Almighty

Amen Amen
