🌩️ The Storm Through the Night; Salvation by Day **🌩️ The Storm Through the Night; Salvation by Day** **Romans 12:21** — *“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”* **Honest Struggle** Last night I faced strong battles. I struggled to resist the urge to lash out in anger and hurt. I know I am not perfect. I fall far short of the glory of God. At times I feel worthless—but I remind myself that God sees me differently. He calls me His child, and in Him I have value. I try hard to stay strong and positive, but sometimes I reach breaking points. The Evil One knows exactly how to press those weaknesses and play those strings. Yet instead of turning away from the Lord in my brokenness, I choose to seek Him with my broken heart. **God’s Promises in the Battle** The Lord promises us that during these times He will: Make a way out. Comfort us. Ensure no weapon formed against us will prevail. Remind us that He has already fought and won the battle we are living through—by His blood! **Where I Fell Short** I know it is easier said than done when it comes to keeping faith, but we must continuously seek the Lord. Last night, I failed in this. Instead of seeking Him first, I let my emotions speak. I told some people I was done trying to be part of their lives and seeking their acceptance. Dark thoughts tried to creep in—old suicidal temptations whispered by the enemy. I felt weak, unable to resist the flood of evil pouring over me. Why the Attack? I don’t fully understand why this night was so heavy, but I have been fasting for almost three days. I’ve been praying, worshipping, and seeking God while trying to move in the directions I feel He is calling me. Maybe that is why the attacks have been so strong. Perhaps someone out there has it worse than me and needs to hear my story for encouragement. Or maybe the Lord is speaking directly to you through these words. I don’t know. Maybe this message is meant for me alone. Only God knows, and that is something we must learn to accept. Encouragement for You We are not meant to understand all the wonders of the universe. God reveals what we need to know, when we need to know it. And when you feel crushed under the weight of the world, shifting and shaking under the pressure—stay strong. Keep moving forward. I am here. I care about you. And you are not alone. God, Jesus, and all our brothers and sisters love you and welcome you. Community is part of God’s design—we are meant to carry one another’s burdens. **Praise God!** I intended on having a Video here from Youtube however read.cash will not allow me to post any links. So, if you want to hear a heart felt worship song, I highly recommend, I suggest you head on over to YouTube and look up "Casting Crowns - It's our Breathe in your lungs" Give Praise to God, Glory to God! Amen! Scriptures of Strength **Luke 10:19** — *“I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.”* **1 Corinthians 15:57** — *“But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”* **Deuteronomy 28:7** — *“The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before you. They shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.”* **John 16:33** — *“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”* **1 Corinthians 10:13** — *“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”* **Revelation 12:11** — *“They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.”* **2 Thessalonians 3:3** — *“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.”* Prayer I pray that God will come against all negativity in your life and defeat your enemies. I pray He grants you wisdom and discernment for the times ahead. Most of all, I pray you are saved, sheltered, and protected from the warfare that attacks the mind. In Jesus’ name, Amen. My Struggle I am in great need of strength, wisdom, patience, love, and compassion. I have been disabled since 2019, and everything feels like it is falling apart. Nothing seems to improve—only pile up, making the struggle worse. I may be close to homelessness, unable to provide for my wife and children, alone with no one to help. I pray no one ever has to feel this way. I need God, Jesus, and your prayers. As Jesus says: **Matthew 18:18–19** — *“Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven… if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.”* Closing Praise Praise God through the struggles, and then brag about His greatness during the miracle breakthroughs He provides. God is great—all day, every day. Amen!
