When we meet big obstacles and problems, we cannot solve, we choose to either give up or let God fight our battles. Humbling ourselves, surrendering our independence, yielding our pride in doing things our way, we cry to God for his help. Trusting (having confidence) and dependence on God, knowing he loves, cares and fights for us. Our focus turns to praise and worship of God, not the circumstances. He works wonders on our behalf and saves us out of our troubles. Hallelujah!
Though I am surrounded by troubles,
you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.
You reach out your hand,
and the power of your right hand saves me. (Psalm 138:7 NLT)
I called on the Lord, who is worthy of praise,
and he saved me from my enemies. (Psalm 18:3 NLT)

Thanks Hazel, I’ve been reminded over the last few weeks how much we need friends, our squad, to help us along the way. Moses needed friends to hold up his arms to keep praying and we need the same. Sometimes we position ourselves and they need to position themselves differently to fight the same enemy, like an army battalion might position a decoy or a sniper or a full frontal attack. I think your blog is a friend to many as they fight the good fight. Thank you to yourself and the other writers, bless your work as you fight alongside many. God be with you. L
