This is war. There will be wars and rumors of wars but the end is yet to come. This is war. We need to get close to God during these uncertain times. There are glimmers of hope for the future but we need to hold on to the promises of God.
At this time, we may be suffering from loss. We may be in turmoil, out of a job, in a bind financially, in a pickle educationally, in a tight situation emotionally, and overall in a hard place spiritually.
I want to tell you that God is willing and able to take care of you. Put your trust in Him and know that what tries to beat you up in life cannot defeat you. The apostle Paul in Acts 14:19 – 20 was stoned, left alone, and supposed as dead. The Bible records that “19A group of Jews from Antioch and Iconium came to Lystra and won over the crowds. Then they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing he was dead. 20But as the disciples stood around him, he rose up, and entered into the city. On the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.”
This passage shows that sometimes life will beat you down, others may stone you, and you may be left alone, supposed as dead. But you have to get up! Rise up! You are needed in the city! There are people who need you. And you have to continue in your purpose, your mission in life and proceed with the vision. You have a high calling in Christ Jesus so don’t ever feel defeated. Fight the good fight. Rise up!
2. What and where is your city?
3. What do you need to rise up and do?
