"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
There are some amazing people going through some horrific stuff right now. People who love God with their whole heart, people who have done nothing wrong, people who seek God's face constantly.
We question why? We plead their case before the throne of God...yet nothing changes.
...Or do they?
In the physical realm, things are overwhelming, and the outcome looks bleak. Hearts continue to race too fast, cancer continues to grow, people still die despite their faith and prayers, babies still linger in hopeless medical situations. In the physical realm, things appear as if nothing has changed.
What is happening in the spiritual realm as prayers are lifted to heaven or as the groaning and mutterings from burdened hearts cry out to God?
I believe ALL of hell is trembling...
Trembling because people are still choosing to cry out in FAITH to their Maker. Still choosing to believe even though physical situations haven't been resolved. Still choosing to declare and pronounce that Jesus Christ is Savior and Healer and Deliverer and their Refuge!!!
Don't EVER give up praying for that person or that thing you want to see come to pass! Every prayer makes a difference in the spiritual realm. God does hear, He does see, He does listen, He is sending legions of angels to fight the battle in which the enemy thinks he is going to win.
We have read the end of the story, and we KNOW who wins this war. So I will end again with this verse:
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
