Charles Stanley’s third key to victory is “find your strength in God.”5 So how do we do that? First meditate on the scriptures especially those that affirm God’s faithfulness and sufficiency. Secondly remember the times the Lord has delivered you in the past. Some years ago our ministry was facing a financial crisis. No matter how much I prayed I couldn’t find any peace. Finally I decided list of all the times the Lord had intervened on our behalf. When I finished faith had replaced fear. God’s past faithfulness gave me confidence to face the future unafraid.
“Though I walk in the midst of trouble…your right hand delivers me.”
Psalm 138:7 (ESV)
Lord Jesus, I am praying for those who are facing impossibly situations. Strengthen their faith and intervene on their behalf. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
