Whatever storm You\u2019re facing, God will get you through it. God did it before; He\u2019ll do it again. In His way and time, God will deliver you from your battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the darkest days of my life was the day my nephew died. Like a son to me, my heart shattered. But amid my despair, God\u2019s light shined brightly. In my situation, God used my husband to pick me up and begin piecing my heart back together. I remember sobs vividly racking my body, wailing in distress, as my husband wrapped his arms around me and held me. Ron was God in the flesh to me at that moment. Now, when I reflect on that day, I find hope. God knew what I needed to carry me through that storm. I know, He\u2019ll take me through the next one too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Somehow, in some way, God always comes through.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n What we need, who we need, all vary. Only God knows the perfect solution to your battle. But He doesn\u2019t give us the battle plan. Typically, we don\u2019t have advance notice when a storm is about to hit. If we try to predict, we\u2019re usually wrong. But God never is. He knows precisely what is coming your way. God already has the battle won, but we still have to go through it. Jesus told us the truth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.\u201d (<\/em>John 16:33 NIV<\/em><\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Take heart today; Jesus overcame the world. Reflect on past victories. Gain hope from what He already did\u2014expectantly waiting for God to do it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n .<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Lord, thank You for being our victor. Thank You for all of our past victories. Forgive us for forgetting so quickly what You have done for us. As we face the trials of this day, let us find hope as we reflect on what You did before. Help us meet our battles with confidence, knowing, You\u2019ve got this too. In You, we can trust. Give us Your peace that surpasses all understanding; as we remember, Jesus already overcame the world. IJNIP.
