It is easy to wave banners, claim victories and label ourselves overcomers when times are peaceful and we feel safe and secure. The real test of faith is when our world is turned upside down. How do we respond then?
I am going through a time of fire myself. Being unemployed with nothing showing up just yet, it would be very easy to be overanxious and to feel defeated. But to overcome one must first enter the firey battle.
You cannot overcome if you are always safe behind protective walls. It is at this point that I CHOOSE to see my victory in Christ Jesus. I CHOOSE to dwell on His blessings in my life and not let the impending need determine my level of faith.
I CHOOSE to remain stedfast and sure of my Father's ability to provide for my daughter and I. He never fails. I have but to stand and hold my ground and the Father will arrive right on time!
You see faith and overcoming victory are a choice we all make. What do you choose today?
