When God Fights for You



When God Fights for You - 

“The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” Exodus 14:14

There are moments when life feels like a battlefield, when the noise of fear drowns out faith, and the weight of uncertainty presses hard against our chest. We stand at the edge of impossible decisions, surrounded by pressures that threaten to undo us. And yet, in the midst of this chaos, God speaks a simple, profound command: Be still.

Stillness is not passivity. It is trust.  It is the sacred pause where surrender meets divine strength.  It is the quiet confidence that the One who parted the Red Sea still parts the impossible today.

God does not ask us to fight alone. He does not expect us to carry burdens that were never ours to bear. Instead, He steps into the fray, shields us with His presence, and declares, “I will fight for you.”

Prayer:  

Lord, teach me to be still when my heart wants to run. Help me trust Your timing, Your power, and Your love.  When I feel surrounded, remind me that You are my Defender.  I release my striving and rest in Your promise:  You fight for me, and I am safe in You.  Amen.

Challenge:  

Today, take five minutes to sit in silence before God.  No requests. No plans. Just stillness.  Let Him speak peace over your storm.

What are your peace stealers?

🤝 Bearing One Another’s Burdens “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” — Galatians 6:2 (NKJV) Life is not meant to be carried alone. God, in His wisdom, calls us into community—not just for celebration, but for support. To bear one another’s burdens is to step into someone else’s struggle with compassion, patience, and grace. But to do this well, we must first understand our own vulnerabilities. 🎯 Know Your Weak Points—Guard Your Peace The enemy has studied you. He knows what rattles your peace, what triggers your frustration, and what tempts you to react instead of respond. Be aware of your peace-stealers. Recognize when you’re vulnerable. Guard your heart with wisdom and prayer. And just as you learn your own weaknesses, learn the weaknesses of those around you—not to exploit them, but to protect them. 💞 Help, Don’t Hinder We’re all wired differently. What bothers you may not bother someone else—and vice versa. That’s why empath...

Only Believe

Only Believe - In the scripture a man came to Jesus and said, "My little daughter is very sick. She is close to death. Will you come to my home and pray for her"? Jesus agreed. But along the way he kept getting stopped, one interruption after another. Finally word came back to him saying, "No need to come. You've waited too late. The little girl has died". The people were upset, very distraught. But Jesus said to them, Luke 8:50, "Don't be afraid. If you will only believe the little girl will be well". Notice the phrase, "Only believe". Jesus went to the home, prayed for the little girl and she came back to life. But you too may be facing situations that seem impossible. In the natural you don't see how you could get well, how you could overcome the addiction, how your family could ever be restored. But God is saying to you what he said to them. "If you will only believe, I will turn the situation around. If you only believe, bre...
