"And when the servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master! What shall we do?" So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them." And Elisha prayed, and said, "Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha." 2 Kings 6:15-17

And honestly, for the past few years, I've not known what I'm doing more than two weeks in advance. But God has been faithful through it all! And if there is one thing that I've learned it is this ... in the midst of all this uncertainty, I'm confident in who God is ... and I do know that 'all things work together for good for those who are the called according to His purpose.' These days, as we press in closer to the Lord and His calling on our lives, the enemy becomes more and more fierce, throwing all kinds of darts of fear and doubt our way. But as beloved children of God, we can trust the Lord to defend us! God has an invisible army all around, ready to protect us in our times of need. When the battle intensifies, when the enemy seems to be attacking from every side, when it seems all too great for our eyes, know that the Lord has placed His protection all around you! We may not see it -- but we must walk by faith! Brothers & Sisters, be encouraged -- "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them". We are not alone! BE CONFIDENT, HE IS OUR DEFENSE!
