Reminders from God

I'm currently in a situation (it's not the first) where not everyone understands where I'm coming from. Ok so thats not a situation, thats the norm. But this time, it doesn't just involve me it involves someone else as well. And we've taken hits from every side. We've had PLENTY of support but we've also taken some hits from those who mean the MOST to us.

The other night I got some news and I was a little worried.I came home and wanted to pray but God said "why stay up all night praying/worrying? get some rest and let me handle it." So thats what I did. Well I did go to bed eventually, just not right away lol.

That worry tried to creep back yesterday so I tried to distract myself by doing other things. Finally I came home and realized that in worrying, I was really not fully trusting God to handle it for me. I had to be reminded that if I am obedient and following GOD, HE will handle any and EVERY opposition that tries to cut short/abort your dreams!

See you have to realize-when GOD has an ASSIGNMENT for you, PURPOSE for your life, when He has CALLED you to something, opposition WILL come! Resistance WILL come, it's necessary for growth in our faith, our walk with God. We MUST have courage and trust God to know that if He called us to something, He will NOT let ANYTHING prevail in preventing us from our destiny, our purpose! Things WILL try to stand in the way, sometimes in the form of loved ones, of people who care about us. They mean well, but they are unaware of God's plans for our lives!

Because of this, they sometimes stand in opposition of what God has for us, because they do not know that it's God. PLEASE stand firm, God wants to strengthen you, and TEST you through that opposition! Yes it may hurt but just KNOW, KNOW without a shadow of a doubt that if you obey, if you follow GOD and you're sure this is what HE wants...this is not your battle to fight. It is not your job to convince someone else of God's plans. Pray and then let God handle it...He can handle it MUCH better than any of us can! You never know what God can do! At some point, ALL opposition MUST FLEE! Every knee shall bow, every tongue MUST confess that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD! You trying to convince the opposition of God's plans will prove to be FUTILE...God will go to GREAT LENGTHS to show others WHO HE IS! So even if He has to use YOU to get through to your opposition, trust, He will do it!

God wants to get the glory, it's NOT ABOUT YOU! So let God handle it! Relax, God's got this!
