I often reflect on the goodness of GOD. Today, HE placed multiple things in my spirit: that HE indeed has a plan, and I just need to hold on and make it through because the best is yet to come. The victory belongs to HIM, and I must not grow weary in doing well.
This morning, I looked at pictures of the past, but THE LORD emphasized the present and future! My best days are ahead of me, and I get to live them right now. I won't romanticize the past just because I go through battles today. The past had its own battles as well. Weariness from what seems like continual battles is tough. But, THE LORD showed me that weariness happens when something occurs repeatedly, and that's how I’ve been feeling. Continually fighting battles I pray about, cover myself in prayer for, and seek THE LORD about. It's tough. But I know that if THE LORD allows it, it's not meant to destroy me. The enemy intends it for that purpose, but THE LORD works it all together for HIS plan, purpose, GLORY, and my good.
It’s hard to feel like the enemy gets to take advantage of me, but I know that's not true. I know my FATHER, my PROTECTOR, my SAFE PLACE, my KING, my LORD and SAVIOR, and my GOD.
HE knows, therefore I trust. Deliverance will come, sooner or later. HE reminds me of the people from back in the day who waited with the message of their SAVIOR, soon to come. JESUS eventually came. For those who passed before HIS DIVINE timing to come to earth, they still saw HIM. For those alive when HE arrived, they tasted and saw.
I know JESUS is here, and HIS SPIRIT is my PROMISE for today. HIS Word tells me of HIS promises in the past, present, and future.
It’s hard to be in continual battle, but even in the fire, thank YOU LORD, that I am not consumed.
For YOU art with me.
YOUR daughter.
Love,
Raven Renee
