Bible Verse of The Day – 3-4-20

Psalm 18:39 (NKJV) 39 For You have armed me with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.

Battles.

Almost nobody likes them. They take immense effort and precise strategy if we hope to win. They take hard work. And sometimes they also take losing some things.

Battles hurt. They wound us. They leave scars.

But battles also teach us. A lot.

They teach us about who we are. They teach us where our treasure is. They teach us what we hold dear to our hearts. They force us to see ourselves.

And they test our faith.

Battles change us. They shape us. They alter the path our lives take because we never come out of a battle the same as we went into them.

Battles will often redefine us and the way we think.

Sometimes we win our battles. And yes, sometimes we lose them.

But here’s the important thing to remember about battles. We all face them from time to time.

There’s no escaping it. Battles are a fact of life. Most of you reading this are either facing a battle, in the midst of a battle, or have just come through a battle of some kind in your life.

And if there’s one thing we all have in common, it’s this; all of our battles have given us something that we can now offer to others who are going through their own battles.

It doesn’t matter if we won or lost our battle. We came away from it with insight and knowledge that we didn’t have before.

Battles are a part of life that none of us can avoid, especially if we ever want to move forward in our lives.

Let’s talk more tomorrow about battles. As we begin to get understanding about them, it will help us in many ways.

More to come tomorrow.
