Battle on Your Knees

The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent.”
Exodus‬ ‭14:14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/exo.14.14.NASB1995

‭‭For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, “In repentance and rest you will be saved, In quietness and trust is your strength.” But you were not willing,
Isaiah‬ ‭30:15‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.30.15.NASB1995

‭‭And the work of righteousness will be peace, And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
Isaiah‬ ‭32:17‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.32.17.NASB1995

I believe prayer is the best weapon of war. In prayer, our hearts are centered on God. In prayer, we seek God’s forgiveness, His way, His will, and we find quietness and trust. In quietness and trust, we gain strength. With the strength of God working in us, we confidently face opposition with righteousness and quietness; confident that He will and is fighting while we keep silent. Through prayer, our righteous actions will speak louder than words spoken in anger or resentment. The result will be peace.

🌹Pray, trusting God in the battle.

Wait and Trust

Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.
Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.27.14.NASB1995

This week and three days last week have been about searching Psalm 27.

Verse 14 sums it all up.
First of all, it is all about God.
God is He who we need to seek, to trust. It is through Him, and Him alone, that we can be strong against the forces of evil and are able to fill our heart with courage. But how is this attainable?

WAIT.
Wait for the Lord. . .Wait for the Lord.
Sandwiched between those two phrases is where our protection, our strength, our courage are found. Are you willing to wait on the Lord? Willing to trust Him?

‭‭My soul, wait in silence for God only, For my hope is from Him. Psalms‬ ‭62:5‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.62.5.NASB1995

Yet those who wait for the Lord Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.
Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.31.NASB1995

Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.

Confident Trust

Though a host encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I shall be (I am) confident.
Psalms 27:3 NASB

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me round about.
Psalms 3:6 NASB

Wow! Those are two very bold statements. Are you that confident in trusting God? I can, without a doubt say, ‘No, I am not’. I can also truthfully say, ‘I want to be’.

Life is not without challenges of dealing with difficult people. People who are determined to argue, disagree, set themselves against you, persecute you, especially when we are walking with God.

That is the point right there. Walking with God. The closer our walk, the more we learn to trust. The more we trust, the more confidence we have in God.

🌹Let’s pray, asking God to bring us to confident trust in Him.

Continually Seeking Him,

Sharon

Hopeful

You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; Many will see and fear And will trust in the Lord.
Psalms 40:1‭, ‬3 NASB

Then all men will fear, And they will declare the work of God, And will consider what He has done.
Psalms 64:9 NASB

🌹The righteous man will be glad in the Lord and will take refuge in Him; And all the upright in heart will glory.
Psalms 64:10 NASB

Our trusting in God during the storms of life is a testimony to those who are watching. Let us persevere while waiting for the glory of hope in His provision.

Observe, Be Astonished

Things happening in this world may bring fear, uncertainty, and seem as if it is out of control, but God.
God is always at work in His creation. God is in control.

The Rock

He only is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
Psalms 62:6 NASB

The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.
Deuteronomy 32:4 NASB

There is no one holy like You Lord, Indeed, there is no one besides You, Nor is there any rock like You God.
I will declare that You Lord are upright. You are my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in You. Being my rock, I will not be shaken for I trust in You, my salvation, my fortress, my God. In Your holy name I pray, amen.
1 Samuel 2:2 NASB/Psalms 92:15 NASB

Psalms 18:31 NASB

Silence

My soul waits in silence for God only; From Him is my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.
Psalms 62:1‭-‬2 NASB

Waiting in silence. . .
If you’re anything like me, this is difficult. I very much enjoy talking to the Lord and I can babble on and on and on. . . But how can I hear the still small voice of the Lord if I am not silent, listening.

In the silence I am humbled as I am reminded that my salvation is from God alone. He is my rock, my stronghold and where I find my strength.

I shall not be greatly shaken! In God I will trust.

For our heart rejoices in Him, Because we trust in His holy name.
