When the storms of life come and you don't know what to do, there is one formula that assures us overcoming victory!
Stop. Stop trying to take care of things on our own. Quit running here and there trying to take care of this, fix that, quench that bit of gossip or wrong doing.
Drop. Drop to our knees and give HIM full control of the situation. Jesus knows and has the power to take care of us! If He can say "Peace be still" and the waves instantly become calm, then why do we hesitate to give Him our problems? He SPOKE the world into existence. . . and we "wonder" if He can take care of our storm? Oh Yes, He can take care of it alright. . . it's just a matter of our faith in Him. Do we trust Him enough to let Him take care of it in His time?
Roll. Let the Hallelujahs ROLL! Yes, praise Him in the storm! What's that song say? "God wants to hear you sing, when the waves are crashing round' you, when the fiery darts surround you, when despair is all you see. God wants to hear your voice when the wisest man has spoken, says your circumstance is hopeless as can be. That's when God wants to hear you sing." That pretty much says it all :) Praising Him is a very effective way to have victory. The Devil HATES for us to praise on purpose. What is praising on purpose? That's praising Jesus, for the full deliverance we KNOW is coming! Praising HIM for answered prayer when we don't see it being answered. Praising HIM for peace when the waves are 1,000 feet tall and tossing your boat around. That my friend, is praising on purpose. It's trust that KNOWS, He will answer prayer and deliver us, In His Time.
So the next time Satan comes around. . . Stop. Drop. Roll.
Good night, my friends! Remember. . .
~God's in His Heaven. All's right with the world!~
