“And they were helped against [their enemies … ] for they cried out to God in the battle. He heeded their prayer, because they put their trust in Him.” 1 Chronicles 5:20
I’ve been in some battles. Not with swords or even guns, but the threat was almost as palpable.
The battles were emotional. Relational. Spiritual.
I know you’ve been in some battles, too.
In between the reality of divine intervention and the desperate cry for help, though is the one thing that makes all the difference.
Trust in God.
Many times, I cry out, but I don’t trust.
I get impatient for God to act.
I miss His hand at work.
I go back to fighting in my own strength.
I make it harder than it has to be. I need to remember the one thing I need. Trust in God.
