As Christians, we all go through things. Negative situations and circumstances arise in all of our lives for many different reasons….some known, some unknown. But I want to take a moment to tweak your way of thinking about going through things and the terminology we use to describe our trials.
Definition: through, or to go through – to annihilate, to pulverize, to utterly destroy, to strike with violence, to move with force, to overcome resistance.
Ok, let me explain my definition. When a SWAT Team goes through things, they leave it utterly destroyed (doors).
When a tank goes through things, very little is left in its path (villages)
When Bo Jackson goes through things, people are left on the ground licking their wounds (Isaiah Robertson)
My point is that when things get in our way in this physical world, they pay a heavy price for their trouble. What if we change the way we think about the things we are going through and take an offensive posture, armed with the sword of the Spirit…The Word of God and absolutely destroy our enemy? I’ll tell you what would happen…..
1 – The world would see a group of world overcomers, and
2 – We would come out on the other side of our battles stronger, bolder, more confident and most importantly with testimony.
I challenge you to ask around in the circles you travel in and find out how many people around you would just love to be weak and you probably won’t get very many takers. Then ask a different group of your friends or associates if they’d like to be strong and you’ll probably get everyone you talk to to jump on that band wagon. So, let’s show the world what real power and what real strength is by being strong in the Lord and in the power of His might (Ephesians 6:10) and completely destroy each and every challenge that shows up in our lives by holding fast to God’s Word as we go through things.
Greater is He that is within us than he that is in the world! (1 John 4:4)
No weapon formed against us shall prosper! (Isaiah 54:17)
If you’re feeling down get up, dust yourself off and go through something. And if you’re blessed enough that all is peaceful in your life right now, get up and go find something to go through!
