Have you ever asked God to show you what He would have you to do? Then, just as He revealed the answer to you and you started following Him, you start to experience lots of oppositions from many sides as if you’re surrounded by minefields?
This summarizes our recent situation:
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
2 Corinthians 4:8-9 KJV
Have you ever felt as if you were being attacked left and right?
If you’re feeling overwhelmed with so much opposition around you yet you know in your heart that you must keep the faith and carry out what God has called you to do, “faint not”.
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:15-18 KJV
Let us keep our eyes fixed on Jesus instead of on the things which are meant to discourage and dishearten us. Let us seek Him to find clarity. Let’s ask Him to order our steps and to protect us from allowing sin to take control of our lives especially during such tough times.
Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
Psalm 119:133 KJV
Let’s not grow weary, my dear friend. Let’s keep the faith. Let’s wait on the Lord. He is faithful to deliver us. He will give us clarity and guide our next steps. He will never leave us nor forsake us! So, let’s hang on tight and take these verses to heart!
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Hebrews 13:5 KJV
and
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:9 KJV
Take action: If you’ve been going through a lot of stress lately or have been feeling lots of opposition from many sides, ask God for wisdom to guide your next step. Let’s not get ahead of God, He will lead us one step at a time. He will give us clarity. If you’ve been seeking clarity and direction in your life for a long time, turn to God’s light and He will carry you through. He will show you The Way. This page tells you how.
