Checking into God's Presence...  "Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the congregation; And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's. Tomorrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel. Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them: for the Lord will be with you. And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the Lord, worshipping the Lord." 2 Chronicles 20: 14-18  At this season of Christmas, and you believed that God indeed formed Thee, most assuredly He must be aware of what we are going through. All the Lord requires from us is the ability to trust Him so that He can lead us out of every storm of life. If we follow Him rightfully, we will not need to fight in any battle set against ourselves by any means. It is only then that we will be able to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord that resides solely within the hearts of those who truly trust Him and have decided to follow His commandments. Therefore, fear not and do not be dismayed. God is ahead of any journey we may try to undertake, including every storm that may arise therein, and He is also prepared to work against what troubles us, provided we rely on Him and do not faint in the process. This festive Season, let our conscience be alive oh Lord so we can see the nakedness in our hearts and conform to Your ways. Revive the barrenness in our trustworthiness, and allow Your transformation to take absolute control of our lives. Do allow Your might to empower so we can dwell only within the confines of the gates of light for us to always receive Your grace in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
