Genesis 22:13,14 says "And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son; And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-Jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be see.

So just as you find yourself in a difficult situation always remember that God already has a way out.

We all know how the great Exodus of Moses and the Israelites began, Exodus 12:29 says ?And it came to pass, that at midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.?

2nd Chronicles 20:17 says "Ye shall not need to fight in this battle:

you, O Judah and Jerusalem:fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out

To break this down all I can say is that if you give God praise before

you go to battle by the time you get to the battlefield the victory

will already be yours. We get to stuck on the situation that we… Continue

1st Samuel 30:6,8 well if you read that last part of verse 6 it says "but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God." What ever you've been dealing with, what ever you've been going through, remember to stay encouraged because you're going through it, you're not staying there long, so you see the men of this town was ready to kill David because when they had gotten back to the town all the women, and children had been taken captives; that's how the devil works he wants you to think that he… Continue
