God Never Leaves Us to Fight Our Battles Alone

Pastor James encourages readers to trust in God’s presence and power, assuring them they are never alone in their battles.

God Never Leaves Us to Fight Our Battles Alone – If We Lean on Him – No Matter How Alone We THINK We Are
 
“Greater is He that is in me [us] than He that is in the world.” (1 John 4:4)
 
Through the boundless grace and unfailing love of Jesus Christ, we are strengthened beyond measure—fortified, unshaken, and empowered to endure and overcome every challenge life presents. No storm is too fierce, no trial too great, for the One who dwells within us is mightier than anything we will ever face. Praise God for His unyielding strength!
 
“The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?” (Psalm 27:1)
 
“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” (2 Corinthians 4:8-9)
 
Do you think you are all alone in your battles? It feels that way sometimes, doesn’t it? 
 
You are never alone in your battles. God has placed heavenly reinforcements all around you—His angels stand guard (Psalm 91:11), His Spirit intercedes for you (Romans 8:26), and His mighty hand upholds you (Isaiah 41:10). When you feel weary, remember that “the Lord goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:8). He surrounds you with His favor (Psalm 5:12), strengthens you with His power (Ephesians 6:10), and fights for you when you are too weak to fight for yourself (Exodus 14:14). Trust in His divine presence—His unseen armies are greater than anything that comes against you (2 Kings 6:16-17).
 
God loves you. Draw close to Him. Love Him. Seek His will. Do your best to live it. Have faith. Persist. Learn. Grow. Allow God’s blessed plan for your life to unfold—it will in time. Never, ever give up. No night lasts forever. The sunrise will be so fresh, beautiful, and sweet!
 
“Gold is refined by fire; the strongest steel is forged in the hottest flames. Your trials are not breaking you—they are shaping you into something mightier than ever before.”
 
Please share with any family and friends who need this message right now. Add your own words of encouragement as you share.
 
If this message was shared with you to encourage YOU, then “pay it forward,” my friend. The best way to experience God’s love is to show it; to be comforted is to comfort; to feel encouraged is to encourage; and to receive a blessing is to be one.
 
☆☆ ONE LAST THING to help us reach as many people as we possibly can for the Lord: WOULD YOU PLEASE FOLLOW US? I would deeply appreciate it.
 
God bless you and keep you,

Just keep these things in mind: 1) there are a lot of hypocrites everywhere you go, and 2) are you going to let those folks deny you the wonderful blessings the right church body can provide you?)
