“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9 ESV).
When we walk on the path that the Lord has set before us toward that call that He has placed upon our lives, it can be easy to become tired or even discouraged. In the natural realm, it can seem like things are moving too slowly, or not changing at all, but we can’t allow ourselves to focus on the way things look. We must keep our eyes on God and His promise of harvest. The enemy will try his best to wear us down to the point that we become discouraged and even give up. Instead of allowing those thoughts of defeat to overwhelm us, it’s time to stand up and start declaring victory!
God has given us the power to overcome the obstacles the devil tries to bring our way. I encourage you to speak strength to your body, and strength to your mind, and continue to stand in faith on the promises of God. As you confidently walk the path that He has set before you, prepare yourself to reap an abundant harvest!
