When the storms of life roll through what will you do? In the midst of attacks from the enemy I have been continually pouring into God. He wants me to tell you “Breathe.” It’s okay. Despite the chaos going on around you – You Are Safe. As I sit here writing this a delivery truck drove past. Windows down blaring Christian music and I thought to myself “that is so cool!” But then I noticed the words of the song…”For the battle belongs to the Lord!” This was such an awesome reminder that in the midst of my chaos God cares! And He wants you to know that He cares. He assures me through His word like John 16:33 or through the words of this song that just “happened” to come on. These things are no coincidence. God is speaking! He is telling you that He is in control and Hes got this.

Though trials come He is in control. One of my favorite verses I speak over myself daily is Revelation 21:5 “And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making everything new!” And then he said to me, “Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true.” This encourages me because although the storms rage around me I know I can trust God and what He says. Look at His promise! If it does not align with what is going on around you then you can rest assured the storm will pass. These trials cannot stay especially where God has called you. Often the trials are confirmation that we are on the right track. The enemy will not attack what he is not threatened by. You are called!

Trials will often prepare us for our calling. In the midst of my trials I’ve pressed into God and His word and experienced a deeper understanding of His presence and His love. He has opened my eyes through the people and situations around me maturing my faith. When we go through things we may find unfavorable they actually begin to grow our spiritual discernment. God shows up and He shows you the way. The storm will pass and you will see why the enemy was fighting so hard. So trust in God. Trust in His word and what He is speaking to you. Press through the storm as you pour into God and He will give you the grace to make it through.

Remember You are Fearfully Made
