Give It Back!

You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the Lord will be with you.
— 2 CHRONICLES 20:17 (NIV)

Growing up in the ‘hood could be rough at times. I recall a time when my friend and me were riding bikes and the neighborhood bully took his bike. This guy was huge! So, what else could my friend do, but cry as I tried to console him. But my friend’s dad didn’t cry. My friend’s dad was much bigger than the bully. He marched right down to the kids house and said, “You took my child’s bike. Give it back!” And you know what? He got his bike back and my friend didn’t have to fight.

What battle are you trying to fight that isn’t yours? You have a Heavenly Father that’s bigger than any problem you have that’s preventing you from having the things Jesus wants you to have in life. Don’t waste time stressing or crying about what the devil stole from you. Run and tell your Dad! You don’t have to be afraid or discouraged for you will not have to fight this battle. Take up your position (pray), stand firm (trust) and see the deliverance the Lord will give you (faith). Stop trying to fight a battle that’s not yours. Give it back to the Lord!

I’m telling!

Heavenly Father, thank You for fighting my battles for me. I am not afraid. I am not discouraged. I will take up my position, stand firm and witness the deliverance You will give me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

This is my prayer
