Where are you now when darkness is closing in? When all I feel is doubt? Where ..God.. when I can't figure it out.
Has it grown darker lately? Look up, child. Be encouraged. Let's get the doubt out. God has your hand, believer, and He says...
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,' declares the Lord. 'For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts higher than your thoughts.'" Isaiah 55:8-9 amp
Enjoy a revival of courage -- this is what those in our country and churches need right now. Courage from God -- choose to be bold and go tell. The Gospel, no matter what you feel. Sure, share the truth anyways. You know there is a timing, tone, tact and kind love involved.
It's too early too jump off the train -- we haven't arrived yet. We want our earthly knowledge to be flawless here. We want our ways to be higher and better, but we aren't perfect yet. And that's where faith comes in. Don't hate people, hate evil ideas and evil hurtful ways.
I implore you, yes, I challenge you to to look up, to stand strong in Jesus, to wisely advance in spite of it all. Know Him well. Let Jesus lead you as Lord, today.
When you feel like God is too passive, too indifferent, too stationary, too still, too far away and non-responsive to your prayers...when you feel the pain or cost from taking a stand in the past.. and you now long for His action, His rescue, His intervention..choose to trust Him again. Today. You feel you really need some good action from god, well, I can relate. Been there. Please just remember right now.. His past actions in answer to prayer. See what God did in the Old and New Testament -- He is always on time. He will meet our needs. You, child of God, are totally immortal in the will of God.. until God is done with you here. They might be some hurts, testings, trials, temptations and persecution even. There will be some suffering here, but you are immortal until God wants you home in heaven with Him.
We can wisely act in courage even when we feel so weak, because God is bigger, stronger, and wiser than all your enemies, and He is in control. He will have the last word even if it looks like the evil people with horrific plans are currently winning.

"Oh, hero of Heaven, You conquer the grave
You free every captive and break every chain
Oh God, You have done great things
We dance in Your freedom, awake and alive
Oh Jesus, our Savior, Your name lifted high
Oh God, You have done great things
You've been faithful through every storm
You'll be faithful forevermore
You have done great things
And I know You will do it again
For Your promise is "Yes and Amen"
You will do great things
God, You do great things
Oh, hero of Heaven, You conquer the grave
You free every captive and break every chain
Oh God, You have done great things
Come let us worship our King
Come let us bow at His feet
He has done great things
See what our Savior has done
See how His love overcomes
He has done great things
He has done great things" ~ Phil Wickham
