OVERCOMING THE FORCES
We are in a world of battle and you must be willing to face the fight if you are one of the winners. Jesus did not promise us a battle-free life and the way out will not be to back out. He that backs out of battle accepts defeat. God’s word says God will not allow temptation that is more than us to happen to us. That is why God never expects us to lose in life’s battle. He has kept in you what is more than what you are facing and potentials greater than your challenges (1 John 4:4).
In the scripture today is the catalogue of David’s mighty men and what they did. Eleazar the son of Dodo is one of them. In the record of the reign of David, he never lost any battle and these are the men that God used for him. When Israelites were facing the Philistines, they retreated from the face of their enemy, but Eleazar stood strong and defended the city until his hand and sword could not separate. That day, he got the victory for his nation.
Friend, your battles are not more than you. You need to rise and face them. Be it academic; business; family; finance or spiritual battle, never withdraw. He who withdraws will not win. Don’t forget that greater is He that is in you. Your problems cannot see your end; you will see its end. Don’t bother about the current situation; all shall change for glory because this battle has been fixed. You must win for Jesus is in you. Since Jesus has won the battle for you, you only need to carry a winner’s mentality because the victorious Jesus is in you (John 16:33). That is why it is written whatever is born of God overcomes the world (1 John 5:4). That is talking about you. Keep acting on God’s instruction by faith and you will win.
PRAYER: LORD, I WILL SEE THE END OF MY CHALLENGES.
“HE THAT RUNS FROM BATTLE LOSES THE BATTLE”
