Struggle
Do you feel a struggle for power in your life?
Our sinful nature is at war with our spirit and it sometimes seems like our flesh is winning.
God’s ways are not like ours. Even when we make wrong choices, if our heart remains humble, God will work it out for our good in time.
David remained patient and did not struggle for power. He trusted in God and His timing.
Politics and force are not the kind of struggles that God uses to accomplish His purpose.
Jesus brought us the Kingdom of God through humility and sacrifice.
When you feel the struggle, let it be a reminder to pray. Just like David sought the Lord, we also need to seek Him.
Action Step
A power struggle is never what it seems on the surface.

Lord, open my eyes to see what you see and help me surrender my struggle to you right now, In Jesus name Amen!
