Proverbs 21:31 The horse is made ready for the day of battle,
but victory rests with the Lord.
Only God gives victory in the battles we face, the challenges we face, the trials we endure, and the decisions we make. We have a responsibility to do all kinds of things. In other words, to prepare the horse for the day of battle, but only God can give the victory. Oh, doesn’t this cultivate humility in us? God, we cannot do anything without you. To you belongs the victory. From you comes everything good. There is nothing good we have apart from your hand. So, God, we must confess our need for you in every way, in everything that we do and who we are. God, we need you. We need you for every breath we breathe, we need you for every trial we endure, we need you for every decision we make, and we need you for every task we accomplish.
Deuteronomy 20:4 "For the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory"
Psalm 108:13 "With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes" The meaning of "the battle belongs to the Lord" is that we should step aside and let God move.
Too many storms have passed your way
And you're all washed out 'cause it rained on your parade
Seems nobody cares about you anyway
Now you're living your life like a castaway Search for strength inside, was it all in vain
'Cause the deeper you dig you find more and more pain
Don't let your tomorrow be like yesterday
'Cause I spoke to God, I called out your name
And on your behalf, I just asked
If He would be there for you wants you to be blessed, don't live life in distress
Just let go, let God, He'll work it out for you
I pray that your soul will be blessed
Forever in His hands, for you deserve His best, no less Enter a place where you never have to cry
Never have to live a lie, never have to wonder why
Never want for nothin', you're always satisfied
In the peace that His arms will provide He will erase any guilt or shame
Any bad habits you got, you won't wanna do 'em again
Yes, we all can change, I can testify
See, I spoke to God,
Be blessed from the bottom of your feet to the crown of your head
Your life be blessed, your family be blessed
Your finances be blessed, and everything about you
Give it to Jesus, give it to Jesus.
~SO~
Always remember with Christ we have hope, In His guidance there is Victory
For you I say, "Be blessed", Pastor David????
