Battle Perspective

iwo jima memorialIn a battle there are those in the midst of the battle – hand-to-hand combat. There are also those in command who are at a distance with perspective on the battle at hand. Then there are those who are the top leaders of the country who are looking from a perspective of not only this battle but all of the threats that the country faces. Check this out…

so the Lord Almighty will come down
    to do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.
5 Like birds hovering overhead,
    the Lord Almighty will shield Jerusalem;
he will shield it and deliver it,
    he will “pass over” it and will rescue it.’
6 Return, you Israelites, to the One you have so greatly revolted against. 7 For in that day every one of you will reject the idols of silver and gold your sinful hands have made. (Isaiah 31:4b-6 NIV)

 

The Lord has every possible perspective and angle on any battle I face. He is Present. He is my Protection. He is my Provider. I will not fear because He is present. I will not give up or give in. He provides strength for the battle. He provides weapons for the war. I am really grateful for His leadership in my life. Each battle I face fits into the perspective of my life here on earth and the eternal life that is next.

Pressing On!
Dwayne
