Stand

There are times in your journey with God where it will be no one but you and Him. You are not going to always have a lot of people around you to lean on, there won't always be someone to turn to, so you have to be strong and learn how to face reality and deal with life's ups and downs all on your own. But even in those tough and trying times, where you have absolutely no one to depend on, and you've done all you can do to make it, just stand; knowing that you are not ever totally alone because your Savior, Jesus Christ, is always with you and as it says in His word, He will never leave you nor forsake you.

In today's society, especially amongst the younger generation, we feel as though we have to have a ton of people around us, we feel as though the more people that are around us, the more support we have; this leads us into a false sense of security because we get comfortable and forget that there will come a time where it will be no one but you, and you alone.

God requires His children to be strong, bold and mighty; He desires for us to lean and depend on no one for comfort and support but Him, because at the end of the day, He is really all we have. But some of us even at the slightest hint of loneliness cower down in fear and roam about searching for a confidant. We in the body of Christ need to become equipped to deal with life's blows all on our own; you don't need man, all you need  is God and His strength will enable you to stand.

Be like Elijah on Mount Carmel, it was no one but he and 450 prophets of Baal, but you didn't see him run, tuck tail and hide, he took a stand, knowing that his God was with him all the way and he was victorious.

:Lean and depend on nobody but God Almighty, seek His strength and stand.

God Bless
