Today's Scripture
Psalm 44:3, NIV
It was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory; it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them.
Today's Word
In Psalm 44, the psalmist reminds the people of Israel that when their ancestors were brought into the Promised Land and conquered it, it was not by their own strength and skill. It was the favor of God, the right hand of God, and the light of His face, because He loved them. Despite all the odds against them in difficult times, God put a favor on them that no nation could stop. All the forces of darkness could not hold them back.
When you face adversity and obstacles, stay in faith. The good news is that God gives you strength for every battle. There's nothing you face that's too much for Him. Come knowing that God ordained it as a part of His plan. Come knowing that the forces for you are greater than the forces against you. Come knowing that the favor on your life will cause you to succeed, to cause you to rise above every difficulty, and to come out better than you were before. You are empowered by His love.
