First I keep coming back to scripture in Joel 2:12-13. 12 is calling us to return to HIM and it is a direction to fast and then 13 God say we are to "rend our hearts and not our garments"....I just keep coming back to this almost like a default switch.
I was put into a postition to think about Epehsians 6:10-18. The word the STAND is used three times in this passage
1: "Stand against the devils schemes"
2: "Stand your ground"
3: "Stand firm"
Definition of the word STAND: 1. To cause to stand; place upright.
2. To engage in or encounter: stand battle.
3. a. To resist successfully; withstand: stand the test of time; will not stand close examination.
I think these definitions are great reference to what God has called us to do....The stand strong!!
There is so much I am still learning and just do my best to not only trust in but to have faith because you can not have one without the other.
