Psalm 91: 11
"For He will give His angels (especial) charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve you in all your ways (of obedience and service)."
How true this is, as women today, we are constantly trying to cross that bridge. We are beating ourselves up because we feel like we aren't getting it all done. Which brings up all that failure, looser feeling. However, I do believe the key to crossing that bridge is one step at a time until we can experience the figurative ability to fly over those invisible battles. (Trials)
We do know intuitively that these battles are raging. What happens sometimes, I believe is that we just get caught up in the drama of trying to fix it all ourselves. We forget that we are not alone. You have heard the tongue in cheek and also on cop shows. . . ASSUME THE POSITION! Remember the bridge. Remember the lady that got down on her knees and asked for help. Assuming the position is what gives us wings to fly over or walk over with confidence. In Luke 10: 19 I love how He talks about our authority and power to tread on serpents and scorpions. I put verses like these on 3 X 5 cards and have them at my fingertips when I freeze up. Another good one to print out is Psalm 91: 11 and 12. It is always a good thing to absorb and understand the supernatural power of our God and how it is ours for the asking. It is true, everyone, that that all encompassing power is from Jesus. He gave us all we needed freely when He gave Himself up on that Cross. He has that wonderful unconditional love for us and He sees our worthiness when He looks at us.
AND THAT IS OUR CHALLENGE ISN'T IT? ABSORBING GOD'S GRACE, HIS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE FOR US. HIS PROMISES ARE FOR EACH ONE OF US.
Accept that God loves us (you-me) as we are and take in how much He adores you. We will never be perfect like Him, but let us be women after God's own heart.
Psalm 63: 8 "My whole being follows hard after You and clings closely to you; Your right hand upholds me."
"No Trial you face is new to God!"
Bottom line: When things get chaotic, we not only have His promises that He stands with us, He marches with us, and we have our sisterhood to call on. We can get across the bridges in life with Him and our friends.
NEXT WEEK: PUTTING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD, AND UNDERSTANDING WHAT THAT REALLY MEANS!
(I finally put more teeth into that piece on the Armor of God, Ep 6: 10/18, and saw some new things I want to share with you.)
