Our Defender

“He is my defender; I will not be defeated.” Psalm 62:6

What is God doing when your life seems to be falling apart? Where is He when you’ve failed yet another time and the devil is laughing in your face? What does God do when we are crumpled in a heap on the floor feeling as if we can’t go on? He isn’t off in heaven shaking His head. He right there in the thick of it. He is fighting for us. Look up; do you see Him? He is pointing you to the corner and he is taking up the fight for you. Exodus 14:14 says, “The LORD will fight for you, you need only remain still.” Wow, that’s all I have to do, just be still and stay out of God’s way? His job is to fight for us; our job is to trust that He will do what we cannot. This is a hard lesson for us human beings to learn. We like to be in control. We like to think we can do it all. We have been brainwashed into thinking we should and we can if we try hard enough; but that is all subterfuge from the devil. He knows that if we face him alone we will lie in defeat; what we need to do is give up and let God take over. Just trust. Not take control. Not question. Not wrestle. Our job is to remain still, watch and pray. God will not be defeated! He will fight for us and He will be victorious! So, next time your life seems to be unraveling, pray. Pray and then stand back and watch your God fight the battle for you. Victory will be yours, for God will not be defeated!

Thank You, Father, for being our defender. Thank You for the reassurance that we do not have to fight the battle alone; that You are with us and will take over when we can no longer go on. You will be the victor and we will be right there by Your side, victorious also. Keep our focus on You, dear Lord. Be our protector and our defender. We praise You in advance for what You will do in our lives, for the victories that will be ours because of You. Thank You from the bottom of our hearts! Amen Quiet Waters
