The Battle Is Mine Now

Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Psalms 24:8

As I was praying yesterday, God spoke as clearly as He ever has. This is what He said: "The battle is mine now." Pretty simple statement, but to me it speaks volumes.

I guess I've been waiting for this day to come. It felt as though He was saying,"The war has now begun." I've prayed for this day, and now He's answered. I've fought and won many battles in the meantime - both small and large - but now both the battle and the burden has become more than I can handle - something beyond my ability. So God is taking over.

I have promises, so I'll keep praying, and listen for God to speak again telling me there's been a victory. Whose report will I believe? The report of the Lord.

Matthew 11:28-30 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light
