Is God really fighting for us?
I read a story about a young man who felt he was treated unfairly in a certain matter. He believed he was set up and not given a chance to defend himself when he was judged for something he didn’t do. As he explored his options for appealing the decision, he prayed for guidance and felt God told him to be still and let Him fight the battle. At some point, the young man asked, "Lord, are you really fighting for me?
I guess He is not alone in his response to challenging times. In the book of Judges, Gideon asked a similar question when the angel of the Lord visited him, reminding him of God's promise to deliver Israel. God's words in Judges 6:16 were clear: “I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites
He is still in the business of fighting for His own and irrespective of how worried you are about your tough situation; He will come through for you at the appropriate time. My beloved brother shared with me a few days ago that he’d been cleared of any wrongdoing and truly God won his battle for him.
Yes, God is still for you, and He is still fighting for His people.
