Facing, Fighting and Overcoming obstacles

A large number of people in this modern area are unable to protect and preserve their strength and zeal for being brave. Everybody loves to be called fearless but when impossibility comes many and many people give up. They skip their ambitions, goals, sky-high desires and welcome failure. Yeah! I am talking about determination in midst of painful experiences. Fear makes us unworthy, worthy of no good. We must also be brave in the Lord to depend upon Him for total happiness. We should never ever even think of trying to depend on our heart's capacity to be happy at all times. It is Jesus who makes us happy and not we ourselves or anything else in this world. When problems come, never wrestle with those problems but relax in Christ. He will take care of it most wonderfully.

Life is beautiful. Biblical experts say that in the Bible, the phrase "Do not fear" is written 365 times. "Do not let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me." (John 14:1 Amp.) "Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests) with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God's peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Phil. 4:6, 7 Amp.) So, the secret to inner courage is believing totally in God and making our requests known to Him.

If, at any circumstance, you come across a person who is fearing something, understand that he does not trust in God. Worry and faith can not be mixed, never. They both stand separately. The only efficient tool to kill our fear is faith. Fear does not come without purpose, its desire is to completely destroy us by drifting us away from God's ways and accepting failure. Whenever we come across situations when we are tempted to doubt God, we must look on the ways in which He led us thus far. If we are successfully going on with a task and suddenly our resources get deleted, it is never wise to quit. We must never forget that it is only through God's grace that we can complete all our good works.

What is the thing that makes you quit, my dear friend? Are not we aware that our happiness and joy will be lost if we admit failure? Your obstacle is never greater than your faith in God. Do not let fear overcome you. Just believe that The Lord is fighting for you, you need only to be still. Go on with the strength you have. Do not concentrate on problems, look on the face of Jesus with your inner eyes. Looking on His merciful face, be encouraged to continue the good things you are doing. Life is meant to be successful. You are made to accomplish God's purpose in your life. If you quit halfway, the result will be eternal. Not only you, but others who would have been blessed through you, will lost something very special. What's more, your chance to please and glorify God will be missed and God's purpose for your life will remain incomplete.

So after understanding the need to have courage and faith, defeat your obstacles by depending on the extreme power of God. It is not by our strength that we can face, fight and overcome, but by God's power and grace. You may be going through difficult situations right now, but God Immanuel is walking with your in your fiery situation. Just focus on His presence, that's all you need to live a life of a winner.
