Isaiah 40:28 " Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of His understanding".
This walk we have embarked upon is one of constant warfare. It is a life full of uncertainties, doubt, unbelief, pride self righteousness and distrust. We are in a constant battle with the two natures that reside in our one body, and the battle is not with flesh and blood , but it is with spirits, principalities and powers that we can't see. It is a battle that we cannot win. But the good news is , the battle is not ours it is the Lords.
The everlasting God is faithful, and it is in His faithfulness that we must reside. God knows all that we are going through. He is the creator and sustainer of all the world and not only can He but He will protect His people. God has given us all we need to make this journey and all we have to do is to be willing. He never sleeps nor does He ever tire of taken care and providing for those that are His. In fact He ask that we cast all of our cares upon Him. He will carry our burdens, He will fight our battles, He will supply all of our needs, but we have to trust Him and let go to let God be God. It is when we try to do that which God is best equipped to do that we fail, ( God is best equipped to do all in our life). He tells us in His word to trust in the Lord and lean not to our own understanding, and acknowledge Him in all of our ways and He will direct our path.
God wants us to surrender all to Him, from our decision making to the actions that evolve from the decisions we make. We are incapable of living a life pleasing to God outside of God living our life. He wants willing vessels, empty of our wants needs and desires, but filled with faith and obedience that He can use as He see fit that a lost world might be saved.
