STOP TAKING OWNERSHIP OF THE PROBLEMS, BATTLES AND SITUATIONS THAT COME YOUR WAY.

Understanding that the battle is not ours is the first step to eliminating the undue stress and pressures from our daily lives. Perhaps it is easier said than done, but we must be able to identify what a trial is, which comes from God to increase and strengthen us and an all out attack from the enemy to kill steal from and destroy us. We must endure the test and trial. But, we should have no part with a carnal battle against the enemy. Those battles are not ours to fight. It is a recipe for disaster and certain failure. The word of God commands us to stand still and see the salvation of The Lord! (Exodus 14:11-13). Stand still! If Saul had taken this advice from Samuel, he would not have lost his kingdom. (1 Sam 9:27; 12:7). It’s the same wisdom Moses offered two men in the camp on a matter they needed counsel on (Numb 9:8). Jehoshaphat gave this same advice to the people right before a great battle that the Lord fought victoriously for them in 2 Chronicles 20:17.

I too had some battles and problems that I so ignorantly allowed into my space and took ownership of. I allowed them to weigh me down and burden me. I paid more attention to them than my blessings until I got the revelation. PROBLEMS AND BATTLES ARE NOT MINE. So, I packed them up and gave them all to JESUS! …thus says The Lord to you, “Do not be dismayed because of the great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God’s.” (2 Chronicles 20:15)

Take your burdens to The Lord and leave them there!

Agape!
