Hold On And Endure It, For The Best Is Yet To Come

"Do not be afraid, for I am with you," Isaiah 43:5

  We are all on a journey right now. We are walking the path that God has paved for us, but maybe, to you, it doesn't seem that way. Your journey is seeming to be so straining and difficult that you doubt that this is what what God has for you. Is this you today? If so, let me encourage you, that no one said it would be easy, but He is there, walking through this with you.
 Now, maybe you are walking through something today that, in your mind, would be far from anything that God would want you to endure, and this is what many people think when they face difficult situations, but listen, God may have not put the situation there, but He does want you to endure it. He wants you to tap into the strength that we have within Him and face this.
 So, where does it come from? Well, you see, the enemy is always trying to get us to stray from God. He is constantly throwing things our way that will misdirect us from the path that God has for us, but here is the part that I especially want you, my friend to hear today. That the hardest and most difficult time of opposition, when the enemy really works at steering us away from God, is when we are close to finding out what it is that God has in store for us. Whether that be a dream fulfilled or a prayer answered, the enemy doesn't want us to reach that because, once we do, that only means that we are going to be even more amazed and in love with God than we already are. And see, this why He tells us in Isaiah 43:5 to"not be afraid, for He is with us." He knows that it will be difficult and trying to get through this situation, but one of the things that He offers us to rest in is that we do not need to be afraid, for He is going to be right there, and with the two of you together, I can promise you that you will get through this and you will reach the other side. Just keep following God, and take heart in the fact the He is not only offering you His strength, but He is going through this right along with you, and He is doing so to make sure that you are able to reach the amazing life that He has for you on the other side, the one that is so amazing and wonderful, that the enemy is afraid of you reaching it.
 So today, with God at your side, just keep going, hold on, and know that the best is yet to come.
