Stand!


Life experiences have taught me that nothing is mine. My children, home, health, relationships, savings…nothing is mine. It can be taken in a moment. The power of John Piper’s message (link below) is how strong and how long will you stand when everything dissolves? When it’s just you and God on the battle line and you know you have to step out in faith with Him. That’s what makes this powerful.

Each battle is different, whether it’s saving babies, sex trafficking, racism or others. It’s how we stand as believers in Christ that counts. Read Eph. 6:11-14 and see how many times God tells us to ‘stand’ and ‘withstand’. It will not be easy once you take that first step, but with God…!
