When we overcome things in our lives, it is really the fact of meeting every obstacle and every challenge that we’re faced with, and meeting it head on…we don’t cower away…nor should we back away from them things that are placed in front of us…but we pray…we get up and we persevere…always knowing and always reminding ourselves that if God is for us than who can be against us?…or what can ever separate us from the Lord and His love?..Romans 8:31…absolutely nothing or no one…so we move and we move swiftly towards them challenges that are there out in front of us…always reminding ourselves that this too shall pass…that we will overcome…because greater is He that is within us than he that is within this world..1 John 4:4..so we do not hesitate and we do not go in our own strength…but we go in the Lords strength…for His word says to us all that in our weaknesses that Christ is made strong..and we remind ourselves that the Lord our God is able to do anything, anywhere and anytime that He alone chooses for He is God..He is Creator…He is the first and the last the beginning and the end…there is no one above Him…nor anyone greater then our Lord…so we move in confidence…knowing that we are going in faith and not sight..2 Corinthians 5:7..that we gain strength through them challenges that we are faced with…so in our infirmities we rejoice…and as the word of God says knowing the power of Christ may rest upon us…therefore we take pleasure in our infirmities, in our reproaches, in our necessities, in our persecutions, in our distresses for Christ’s sake: for when we are weak, then are we strong….2 Corinthians 12:9-10…for the Lord He has already told us that we should be of good cheer for He has overcome the world…John 16:33..so we know that we are going to make it through…for the Lord never promised that this life that we are living would be easy..nor will it ever be easy for us…but He did promise that He would never leave us nor ever forsake us..Deuteronomy 31:6..that He is there through everything..and that He is everything that will ever need in all of our lives…for when were sick, He alone is our Doctor..When were sad, afraid, fearful, lonely, upset…the Lord is there to comfort…to mend…to cover and to fill and fill up all that emptiness that were facing and are faced with…so if we need a friend…He is that friend that sticks closer than a brother..Proverbs 18:24..if we need a lawyer…He alone is the best lawyer and defender for He is sitted in the heavens on the right hand of the Father daily making intercessions for us..Romans 8:34..so whatever it is that you need just know that you have it all right there, right now available to you, for you have Jesus…Praise His name…if your hungry…He will feed you….if your thirsty He will give a drink from that well of life that never runs dry..John 4:14..so today we know that life is life…and that life is going to happen..and that life doesn’t always go the way we hoped for…but either way guys…always know that we win..no matter the hardship…no matter the trials…we win…and we have won through the Lord…for He says, I know the thoughts that I think towards you…thoughts to give you hope and a expected end..Jeremiah 29:11..so we hold on to the promises of our Lord..we don’t let go of His nail scarred hand..we take one day at a time doing the best we can today with what we’ve been given…we don’t look ahead and we don’t look behind…but we live our lives right now in the moment that were in..and we keep on moving forward…knowing that we are soldiers in the army of the Lord..and that no weapon formed against any of us will prosper…and that any tongue that would rise against us in judgment that the Lord would put to flight..Isaiah 54:17..for guys we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and by the words of our testimonies..Revelation 12:11…so let us never let ourselves forget that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus our Lord..Romans 8:37..In His name,  Jesus’ name..I do ask and pray…Amen and Amen…Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
