ARISE AND FIGHT

We identified our plan, began execution, and then had some minor road-bumps.
Adversity comes with setbacks and failures, but the failures need not have to be permanent.
God assured us the testing times and difficulties will arise, but that He will see us through them. He has promised to remain with us during our tough times (Isaiah 41:17-20). He has promised to bless us abundantly if we stay the course (Galatians 6:9). No matter how many times you get knocked down, get back up and try again. He who perseveres will receive his blessings!
If the Eternal Creator is on our side, why should we lose hope?
Did the shepherd boy David lose hope at the sight of the mighty Goliath?
Did Moses falter when he was sent to deliver Israel from Egypt?
Did Elisha lose heart when he was surrounded by the Syrian army?
Did Apostle Peter and the disciples fear any reprisals after Pentecost?
No! They arose, and put everything they had into the task at hand. They fought back.
What is that mountain you face? Do you not think that the God who raised Jesus from the dead is able to grant you victory? He has promised to fight for you, if only you can hold your peace. God has promised to level every mountain and straighten every road before you; He only expects complete faith and a ‘do-not-quit’ attitude!
Arise therefore, and fight; again and again and again, until victory is secured! There is no other way.
