I have
never been one to back down from a fight that was necessary, but at times I
have been drawn into battles that were not for me to fight. This is where
prayerfully standing down comes into play; I have often been directed to wait
for the Lord to handle the matter. Sometimes we must run toward the giant as
did David, but other times, like King Jehoshaphat facing an unbeatable foe, God has us stand down and send out
praises to Him rather than push ahead. O Lord Our Defender, I am Yours. Guide
me in battle, grant me good discernment and teach my heart to trust You as Commander
In Chief.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
