Shane and Shane (a Texan worship band) sing a song called
‘You’ve already won.’ The chorus goes
And I'm fighting a battle
You've already won,
No matter what comes my way
I will overcome.
Don't know what you're doing,
But I know what you've done.
And I'm fighting a battle
You've already won
The line ‘but I don’t know what are you doing but I know what you’ve done.’ really got me because so many people are going through a lot of sickness, trauma, heaviness, or hard times and when you’re in that space it’s hard to see where God is.
The song is a great reminder to us all of all God has done in the past.
And all that he can do in the now!!
God brought the Israelites out of slavery, He brought them through the wilderness providing daily manna and quail! He parted the Red Sea -that’s not humanly possible or logical.
He led them with a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of light by night .
In the New Testament Jesus performed miracle after miracle that defy human reasoning!
He used a boy‘s packed lunch to feed more than 5000 people. Jesus used mud and his own saliva to heal blind eyes. Jesus cast out demons in a man that had been buried deep in his life and with just one word they came out and he was in his right mind.
A woman who had been troubled by hemorrhaging all her life and no doctor could cure- just touched Jesus robe and she was healed!!
So when we look back at all He’s done, and we really, really dwell on the God of the impossible we can trust him for any thing we are going through in the now.
Jeremiah 32:27
I am the Lord the God of all mankind. If anything too hard for me?
Nothing absolutely nothing is impossible with God.
Let’s start to declare that with our lips daily.
The devil will whisper lies to you do not listen to him....
Jesus reminds us ..
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
John 10:10 NIV
Feel free to pray this with me.
It’s often good to pray it out loud!
Mighty powerful God
I repent for making you so small in my life.
I repent of not always having the faith that you still are a miracle working God.
Thank you that you are so much bigger and greater than sickness, trauma, heaviness, debt( insert what is weighing you down!!)
Thank you that you hold me and all those I love in the palm of your magnificent hands and that nothing is too difficult for you.
I speak your breath of life into my situation because you came to give us life.
Brilliant words as always! I am certainly guilty of not putting God at the forefront of my life and not appreciating how utterly and truly amazing he is. Thanks for this

Wish I could write like this Sis - the Lord has gifted you wonderfully. What a powerful rider to focus on Almighty God, rather than myself or the circumstances. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
