Walking in Obedience

Just this month, I had a sad experience with friends who behaved like enemies. They promised something but did not keep their promise. In fact, they took great advantage of me. However, I surrendered my bitterness to the Lord, asked forgiveness, and He took it away.

Just the next night, at four o'clock, I awoke and my heart was filled with bitterness again. I thought, "How could my dear friend behave as she did?" Again, I brought it to the Lord. He filled my heart with His love. But the next night it came back again. I was so discouraged. God has used me often to help people to love their enemies, and I could always give my testimony about what He had done in my life; but now I felt defeated.

Then I remembered Ephesians 6:10–20 where Paul describes the 'armor of God.' He said that even after you have come to a standstill, still stand your ground. I was at a standstill, so I decided to stand my ground, and the bitterness and resentment fell away before me.

Corrie ten Boom without the Lord Jesus cannot be victorious. I need the Lord every moment. And I have learned that I am absolutely dependent on Him. Because of this, He has made me rich. The secret of victory over bitterness comes through obedience.
