Harold
Faithful Servant
As I've been reading the request today, there was a certain theme to them that kept coming to me. I was feeling overwhelmed with some things in my life and saw many people here that were feeling the same. Some of the scriptures that came to my mind were scriptures that told of Gods deliverance. Moses with the sea on one side and the army of Egypt coming from the other. Nothing between them but God. Or how Gideon took 300 men against the thousands, nothing to get save them but God. The disciples in the sinking boat, the widow giving away her last meal, the lepers deciding between dying in Jerusulem or going to the enemies camp. All had one thing in common, nothing between them and their problem but God. It seems like so many times we are brought to the very end, minutes from destruction and that's when God moves. He keeps telling me that if He brought us this far, He is going to bring us on through. Why would He stop in mid-stride, His mind doesn't change, He just sometimes waits for us to change our mind frames.
I know that I am not the same man that I was a year ago, and believe me I thank Him for that. I'll never be perfect, and I am far from that now, but I think that is part of the process, to understand that we have to rely on His perfectness, on His righteousness. I think the closer we get to our breakthroughs the harder it will seem to get, when we have nothing between us and the enemie, that is when we will see Him in all His glory. Let's keep one another tightly in prayer, that's our weapon of war, and believe me we have just been thrust into the middle of the battle.
