WHO ARE THE MEN GOD CAN USE IN THIS GREAT HOUR OF NEED?
8. MEN WHO WILL NOT BUCKLE UNDER PRESSURE
Losing the reprieve we felt we so needed by losing this election should not in any way cause us to be faint-hearted and buckle under the pressure. We must not throw up our arms and cave in, not even in the least, to the socialist agenda that won by a narrow margin. And who knows what corruption they employed, especially in the battle ground states to achieve their victory. My prayer is that all corruption will be quickly discovered and brought to the light.
Men, we have to toughen up more than ever. Compromise is the way of the wimp. We must look to God more than ever for the strength to fight, for we are not fighting against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers (Ephesians 6:12).
Obama will be expecting more than ever that our Congress, who are his main opposition to his financially destructive agenda, will buckle under his pressure. We must fight in the spirit as never before and pray more earnestly for our Congress.
We must pray for one another that God will strengthen us to not flag in spirit, but be clothed with more power from on high.
"Through God we shall do valiantly; for he it is that shall tread down our enemies" (Psalm 60:12).
Be encouraged. Colin
