Be a Stander
SEP 05, 2023
Today’s Scripture
1 Corinthians 16:13, NIV
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.
Today’s Word
God is not necessarily looking for people who have great faith, but for people who simply stand with an attitude of faith. People who stand when the problem is not turning around, stand when your heart is breaking, stand when the bottom falls out—not bitter, not discouraged. God never said we wouldn’t have times of trouble. But He did promise that if you just stand, He’ll bring you out. He’ll defeat your enemies. He’ll give you beauty for ashes. He has joy coming in the morning. Don’t let those times of testing cause you to think that God is not for you.

The enemy cannot defeat a stander. He can’t defeat you when you stand in praise even when things are not working out. You stand in excellence and keep being your best in the middle of the trouble. You stand unmoved by what you’re up against, stand with your eyes on God, knowing that He has the final say, that He’s working behind the scenes, that what He promised you will come to pass.
Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You for Your promise that You will work out Your plans for my life. Help me to stand firm in my faith in the times when nothing seems to make sense. You have never failed me in the past, and I know You’re not going to fail me in the future. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
