Never forget: the battle is never over. We fight daily—to stay grounded, to remain seated and placed where our Lord wants us. If we lose our grounding, we begin to fall away. If we compromise, we never move forward. We remain in a place that was only meant to be for a moment in our lives.

Daily we fight, because we are soldiers for Jesus Christ our Lord. The Word of God says that in this life we will have troubles and tribulations, but we are to be of good cheer, because the Lord has overcome the world. (John 16:33) Praise His name! Rest in this: God is close to the broken‑hearted. (Psalm 34:18) Amen. He promises to never leave us nor forsake us. (Deuteronomy 31:6) He is not a man that He should lie. (Numbers 23:19) If He says something, He will do it. Hallelujah.

The Bible also tells us that sorrow is better than laughter, for with sorrow the heart is made better. (Ecclesiastes 7:3) Amen!

So just know: God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. (James 4:6) Let us always humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God so that in due season He will exalt us. (1 Peter 5:6) The Lord has not forgotten any of us. He knows where each of us is right now in our lives. He knows what we need. He also knows how to bring us to where He wants us to be.

Through the trials and troubles, through the tribulations and much prayer, we grow better and closer to our Savior. It’s when all is not well that we truly seek God, seeking Him like we’ve never done before. Amen!

Because He is our everything. Don’t think that the wilderness you are in right now is your final destination—it’s not. Amen. God has a great plan for each of us. We are growing, we are learning, and we are trusting. So let us all be patient, stay faithful, and remain committed. I pray we don’t get tired—but that we learn to take it one day at a time, giving thanks and loving the Lord for this day. (Psalm 118:24): “This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”

Let us keep putting one foot in front of the other, knowing that with each passing day we are one step closer to the promises God has given each of us. Amen!”

“For it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that 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 ❤️
