Sometimes in life we are surrounded by so much negativity, so many difficulties, so many attacks from the known and sometimes unknown enemy. Sometimes the negativity will come from places or people you never will expect and it can seem like you're being pushed down, pushed up against the wall by life, by circumstances, by hardships, by people, by everything that is surrounding you. It can feel like your circumstances and life are pushing you so far that you're going to fall and never be able to get up. Life can sometimes make you feel like there's no way out, that you will always be surrounded by negativity and unwanted circumstances. But just when you get to the edge, just when your back is against the wall and you just know for a fact that you're about to fall and that you're not going to make it through, God will step right in and help you. God is a miracles worker and will make ways out of no ways. He will provided in a situation that seems like there's nothing that can be done. He will pull out of circumstances that seems like there's no way out. He will heal your body even when the doctor says there's nothing they can do for you. God will is that time of God and He loves you enough to catch you and pull you out of whatever situation you may be in.


Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. ~Deuteronomy 31: 6

Just when it seem like all is lost, God will deliver you and supply you with everything you need. He will help you cut ties with the negativity in your life, help you get through the difficulties, and protect you from the attacks of the enemy. So when you feel like giving up, when you feel like you're continuously being pushed down, when you fell like you're about to fall, DON'T GIVE UP! God will show up right when you need Him. Keep fighting and trust that God will get you out of whatever circumstance that is pushing you down. Gold on to the strength God has provided you with. Hold on to the promises that God has for you and your life. Hold on to God's unchanging hand and know that God will save you, He will catch you, He will keep you from falling, and He will always be right there to help you in your time of need. Walk in the victory that is ahead because you may be surrounded but YOU WILL NOT BE DEFEATED!


Scripture:

All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down. They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down. They swarmed around me like bees, but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them down. I was pushed back and about to fall, but the Lord helped me. The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.

~Psalm 118:10-14


Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before your throne of grace today to say thank you. Thank you for yet another day. God we thank you for your continuous protection and covering over all of our lives.

Although we maybe surrounded we know that are are not defeated because you are right here with us. God thank you for keeping us from falling. Thank you for pulling us from the edge. God thank you for loving us so much to keep us safe from dangers seen and unseen. God we love you and we thank you for the victory that will be won in our lives.
