Look Up

Have you ever been to a place spiritually where you feel you are pressed up against a wall with the enemy pacing back and forth behind you?  You are walking along, serving the Lord and attempting to be obedient to Him when you come across this wall. It is a wall to large to climb over or go around.  You are stuck.  This seems to be the place I find myself. You may be thinking turn around and go back the other way.  But this other way represents my "old" way of life.  That is not an option.  You see I have surrender my life to the Lordship of Christ.  So if He see fit for this wall to be in front of me and the enemy pacing back and forth behind me...who am I to say any different? 

For the last five days, I have found myself pressed up against this wall concerned about the enemy's activity behind me.  Myself pressing against it as if I could cause its collapse.  I have wasted days and energy on something I personally could never make move.  How about you?  Are there things obstacle's in your life that you are attempting to move with your own strength?  Whether the wall be sin or a struggle God is calling your attention to...it can only be removed by surrender and brokenness before the Lord and openness before others.

You see it is by the truth of God's Word and prayer that the purpose of the wall can be seen.  The enemy behind me is a lion on a chain.  It is not possible for him to touch me unless the Lord allows it  If God allows it-I can know it is for my good and His glory.  The Lord God uses the enemy to push me to my knees and into His arms.  He does the same in your life. 

I want the "wall" to be gone.  I am excited to see what is on the other side..Just as the children of Israel stood at the Red Sea with Pharaoh's army behind them, they had to wait for Moses to lift the rod to the heavens before the water parted.  So we must lift our eyes to the heavens until God has mercy on us.

Unto You, I lift up my eyes,
O You who dwell in the heavens.
Behold, as the eyes of servant look to the hand of their masters,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes look to the LORD our God.
Until He has mercy on us
Psalm 123:1


Be encouraged my friend for the loving kindness of God is better than life!
