Psalm 18, Romans 8
A few years ago we were in a financial crisis. This Psalm became my daily prayer. A few months ago I was reminded of this Psalm, and again, it became my daily prayer. Life is hard, and I don't mean to sound cliche, but we truly are not alone. There are spiritual battles and warfare around us that manifest into natural conflicts, often disasters in our lives. Again, we are not alone. God did not leave us to fight by or for ourselves because He knew we wouldn't be able to.
2 Corinthians 10:4 tells us the weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. Something beyond what we can explain happens when we pray God's word and by faith believe that God will work all things together for good for those who love Him. I would like to encourage everyone to read this Psalm and with whatever battle you might be facing, turn this Psalm into your prayer. The hardest part is learning to trust that God will crack through the spiritual clouds, fight our battles, and rescue us. The rescue might not look like what we picture, but He will always shine in our darkness.
