“Your ways are higher, and I trust you Lord, you know exactly what I need.” This thought came to mind as I entered my prayer time with the Lord. Isaiah 55:8-9 came to me at that exact moment, and I was filled with a sense of peace. He, the Lord, my protector knew exactly what I needed. He called me to a place that gave me the opportunity to be at His feet and bask in His presence, there it felt as if nothing was impossible with Him.

I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

Psalm 121:1-2

In the times we are living in more often than not, we go through difficult situations that cause us to cry and weep. So many of us have lost jobs, some are facing illness and some have lost loved ones. When you look at what you're going through it doesn't seem like it is going to get better anytime soon. We tend to look at things through our cardinal vision instead of seeing things through our spiritual eyes, where you can see the salvation of our Lord.

Make Him your fortress and rock so that you will be able to firmly stand under the shadow of this almighty Savior and begin to learn who He is and who we are in Him. At this time, we can find our “brave” place.

There is peace in this stillness. I am taking this time, not to ask for anything, or petition for anyone. Just to be still and open my heart to my savior and let Him minister to my heart. I have inclined my ear to my Lord and through this, I am not allowing stresses and fears to speak louder than his reassuring whisper that he is in control.

The Lord has called his people to move into the front lines of faith and be the light that those that are weak and in darkness will have a lit pathway toward Him. Along the journey we are engaged in battles with our Adversary. He is cunning and relentless and honestly, he does not fight fair.
