"The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." -Exodus 14:14 (NIV)
Sometimes there seem to be too many battles to fight in life. We have personal challenges that we face. We see others struggling in their lives. We look across our cities, states, countries, and world and see injustices that hold people down, destroy our environment, and cause pain and suffering. It can be easy to pick a fight, but it can also be easy to be overwhelmed by all the work to do both locally and globally.
There are many fights across the world. Fortunately, we do not have to fight any of them alone. We can unite with fellow believers to work for God on earth. This power is only truly realized when we call on and trust in God's presence and ability in our lives. When we are choosing a fight and contemplating strategy, we need to include God. Sometimes God will need us to be still so that He can work in our lives and in the lives of those around us. It can be hard to take a step back from our idea of fighting, but if God calls us to be still and step back, that step will be the most powerful weapon we have in any fight!
Fight for love and justice as God guides you, even if it means taking time to be still!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your love and guidance. Help me to know the steps that I should take as I fight for justice and love in Your name. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
