If I have faith that God is with me, it will change me! It will carry me through trials. It will fulfill what God asks of me - like Joshua, David, and Daniel, courageous men who would not be compromised like blades of grass withering in the hot wind of adversity. “I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me.”

There is a place to simply believe God without us telling Him how He must accomplish it or when. It’s a faith that lifts us into the power of His presence where He becomes so great in us that powerful attacks just don't matter anymore. He produces a table of peace in the presence of our enemies.

What’s happening in Israel is not just about Israel. For better or worse, their trial is a shadow of how God deals with all of us. Trials are a test of our faith, not God’s faithfulness. Fear worships the devil. Its foundation is our soul demanding the world be our God and give us what we need.

When God rules my life He gives me the power to be more than a conqueror! If all a person has is this world, then the world will take that person wherever it wants to. If you have no handhold in this world, then the devil can’t attach his stink to you. He can’t control you and make you miserable.

God will never say, "I would've protected you, but you were having a bad day, so I couldn't be God today.” Don’t be discouraged about your call to continue on in battle in your golden years. You were made for battles. They don't mean there's something wrong with you. It’s why you’re here!

Many a faith battle pivots upon the willingness to surrender everything to God. A big problem in faith is not how to receive from God's hand but letting go of our own hand hold. Surrender activates faith by releasing our expectation of how God will work it out. Let go of what you’re afraid to lose.

God has given us a brain, emotions, and a soul that only functions properly when His word is our highest reality. We are designed in such a way that faith and transformation only come by time spent with Him. We can't live by faith when most of what we receive is from the world instead of from the Lord.

In hard times, you're not here to prove how good you are or to fix it all yourself. You're here to let God show how good He is! Faith is more than a privilege, it’s a responsibility and an expectation that will glorify God. Your mind is too valuable to allow it to be abused by fear and trouble.

Some think that faith ought to deliver them from all their problems or there's something wrong with them. Faith will 'mess' with a man until his heart changes. Faith won’t produce a life of harmony with this world. It will release an abundant life within that cannot be overcome by darkness.

One day, only the presence of God will sustain us. The criticisms of others about our afflictions don’t mean a thing. Trials don’t mean we’re forsaken or don't have enough faith. They work to establish the fire of Christ in our souls until we know we can't be defeated & that He’s a greater reality than our pain.
