Strong With Lisa Bevere預覽

Not Alone

Though I may never see your face or have the honor of knowing your name, I know we are not that different and in the course of life we will face many of the same challenges. God’s Word promises us that any problem we will face is not uniquely ours. We are not alone in our trials or victories. 

But Satan, the enemy of our souls, loves to isolate and accuse each of us as though we were. He whispers lies, “You are the only one who struggles with this. No one else is as bad as you!” 

I know you’ve heard some form of this because I, too, have heard this lie. God does not play favorites when it comes to His promises and to His Word. He receives everyone who comes before Him with a humble and obedient heart. 

This is not true for the arrogant and self-righteous who imagine they have it all figured out. He hears us best when we come spent and tired of trying to do it on our own. God lifts the weary and broken and invites them to come to Him without finding fault.

There are far too many precious women who feel alone and isolated. It is time we realized that just as we are united in our struggles, we can be united in our strength. Perhaps you have felt isolated and accused. These are lies. You are not alone. Your Lord is your redeemer rather than your accuser. 

This is one of the many reasons why community is so important. When we connect with other people who have already gone through the struggle that we are presently in, we are encouraged to step out in faith and dare to believe that just as God was faithful to them, He will be faithful to us. 

Allow me to assure you: God is not angry with you. He is not your accuser. He is more than willing to help. You are not alone. 

Pray

Father, I praise You that I am not alone or accused by You. Thank You for welcoming me into Your healing presence. As I am healed, I will share my journey so that others will be encouraged as well. 

Declare

I am strong, because I am not alone. My Lord is my redeemer, not my accuser.
