                     Stand Firm


When you've exhausted every outlet and it appears there is nothing else you
can do, then you must simply stand. The Lord will send forth His ministering
angels to fight for you with swords. For the battle is not against flesh and
blood, but against principalities and powers, and spiritual wickedness in
high places. The Lord will be free to fight for you if you will simply
stand. There comes a time in our lives when we must learn that we do not
have the ability to win the fight without our Lord. We must learn to rest in
Him and to stand firm on His Word and His promises to us. The Lord will
fight for us and He will deliver us from the hands of our enemies. We must
stand firm in Him.

The children of Israel would have never made it to the promised land if they
had not simply stood in the Lord to fight their battles for them.

Ephesians 6:13
Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to
withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
