“Tomorrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.”
2 Chronicles 20:16 KJV

You see, life is not just a bed of roses. Life is a mixed grill. Life is a mixture of sweet and sour. Embedded in life are the challenges of life. Therefore, we must know how to navigate through these challenges no matter how tough they are. There is always a way out of every challenging situation. The fact that you have not known which way is does not mean that there is no way. The Bible tells us in the book of John 14:6 that Jesus declared: “I am the way, the truth and the life.”  He said, I am the way! Not I am a way.

As long as Jesus is the way, there is always a way. Therefore, you are coming out of that unpleasant situation. It does not matter how tough it is, you are coming out of that situation. Christ came from heaven to earth to show us the way. Allow Him to give you direction. He is the way.

In our text in 2 Chronicles 20:16, God said to the children of Israel, ‘Tomorrow go ye down against them and behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel. You shall not need to fight this battle, set yourself, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem; fear not, nor be dismayed. Tomorrow, go out against them, for the Lord will be with you.’

Beloved, when God gives you direction, He will take over the battle of your life. I declare to you today, therefore, that the enemy you have seen today, you shall see them no more forever.
