Isaiah 54:17 (NKJV) 17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord.
Sometimes in life it can feel like evil has an upper hand. It feels like it is winning, completely unchecked.
And the truth is that sometimes it does win. Sometimes it does defeat those who stand against it, at least for the short term.
But here’s what we need to remember when that happens. God will ultimately prevail.
We don’t always know the timing. We don’t always see, know or understand God’s methodology. Sometimes we don’t even see the victory itself, either because it happens in the spirit realm or it happens after our lifetime.
But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
We need to hold fast to God’s promises and trust Him in all things, despite what we see with our natural eyes.
Yes, that can be difficult to do sometimes. It can wreak havoc with our minds, and it can toy our emotions. But that’s OK. That still doesn’t mean that God isn’t in control.
He is.
So, if you’re feeling frustrated because it looks like evil is winning, press in to God. Hold to Him tightly. Dig in to His word. Talk to Him. And then listen for His voice.
Listen to Him. Let Him reassure you and bring understanding.
Our minds don’t get the final say. His Spirit does.
And what He says is far more important than what we think or perceive.
Trust Him.
