God is Fighting for Me

Scripture Deuteronomy 3: [22] Do not be afraid of them; the LORD your God himself will fight for you.”

Observation: Most of my life I was afraid and even now I’m feeling anxious. Tonight is the night I teach my class on depression and the enemy hates when I do this and does whatever he can to stop me. If it wasn’t for my Lord and my God I would have been gone a long time ago, but since He fights for me all the devil can do is harass me. God is always fighting for me because each day brings a new battle whether it is at work, my health, my emotions or thoughts there is always a battle. I still get afraid, afraid I won’t fulfill the purpose God has created me for and slip back into the man I once was and never want to be again.

Application: I need to continue to charge through this life knowing God is leading the way. I need to be confident that no matter what happens I have an eternal reward that awaits me when this life is over. I know what needs to be done and I need to do it for God’s glory and in His power not mine. Tonight I need to give God my all during the class, but always depending on Him to complete the work He has begun in me.

Prayer: Dear Lord please protect your servant that I may fight for you. I have no power of my own and need your strength to get me through each day. Fill me tonight with the Holy Spirit and use me to touch the lives of others in your name. Show me how to guide your children to you so they would be comforted in your power and love.
