God is with us through the struggles

Hey Ya'll. I want to be honest with you because I think it is important for people to know just because someone is walking with Christ doesn't mean they don't struggle. This past week has been really hard, and I've been struggling a lot. It just feels like the devil keeps throwing things at me and it just keeps chipping me away. But I know although I am going through this hardship I am not alone.

"The Lord replied, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest " NIV Exodus 33:14

If you may be going through hardship lately, I want you to know you are not alone. God is with you always. And even though we may go through struggles know that God has a plan. And we cannot let our problems be bigger than our God.

Here's some things we need to remember when we go through these struggles.

• God is our refuge and our strength. When we go through these trials pray for God to be your strength and find refuge in him. (Psalm 46:1)

• We must be strong and courageous for God is with us, we don't need to be afraid or fear, because he is with us. (Joshua 1:9)

• God will supply all of your needs. He is our provider he will supply you all of your needs. trust in the lord and you will see him provide. (Philippians 4:19)

• God will never tempt you. And when temptation comes, God will always provide a way out and he will not let you be tempted to what you cannot bear. (1 Corinthians 10:13)

• Trust in God and don't lean onto your understanding. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

• When you are anxious instead of being anxious in a situation. In a situation approach it through prayer and supplication. (Philippians 4:6)

These are some of the many verses that can help us through the struggle. We need to let God start fighting are battles cause from my experience we can't do it all but when we reach to God and say God, I can't do it anymore I can't bear this, can you bear it for me? and say "Father God, I give you my anxieties and fears today, I give you the control. I don't have the strength Father, I need you." And you give God your problems and you give him the control; he will fight your battles for you. And hey its ok if we get really low, we just need to rest in his word and ca

ll out to him. One thing I've found is God is like a free therapist and he doesn't judge, you can talk to him about anything. Whatever you're holding onto today, let it go and give it to him. Someone once told me " Don't let the devil win" and that's stuck to me to this day because I can't fight him off myself but when I go to God, He will fight my battles. We can't let the devil win.

" The LORD will fight for you; you only need to be still." NIV Exodus 14:14

Don't fight this battle alone. I pray for all of you to look unto God when you face these trials, and for you to give him your problems. Cast it all on him and give him the control and let him fight it for you. One little trick I learned is we can use scripture against our trials, when we memorize them and hold them in our hearts, we can speak them and apply them in times like such. I hope I through my own struggles right now can do the same and apply these principles, so I am not fighting this battle alone and let the devil win. I know through Christ I will get through this, and I hope you apply the same attitude.
