Life is a constant
spiritual battle. Our enemy is always at work seeking ways to bring
us great distress, discourage us and to make us weak and for us to
lose our focus on God.
As I ponder upon
the message of this song, I realize all the more that I am helpless
without God. He is my best help in every moment and I need Him all
the days of my life and I can't live without Him. This is a humbling
truth that I need to always remember for God owns me and because of
that, the enemy will also do all he can to destroy me. With this
reason, I have to trust God and not on my own strength for He will
fight for me and He will surely win the battle which I couldn't do
myself. He is my Mighty Fortress!
The reality that I
am living in this world filled with evil is an important truth that I
need to face day by day. I should not take it lightly but bear in my
heart and mind that I only have one enemy and that is the Prince of
this World, the devil. I should not fear him for I have God and His
word is my defense. I have to remind myself that I am already
victorious in God and the devil is a defeated foe and his doom is
sure. He will not win but be left behind helpless and powerless.
To sum up all of
these things, I could say that God is a God of victory, He is our
best help, He is trustworthy and He will reign forever. I have to
hold on to these truths and continue to live a life pleasing to God,
acknowledging always my need for Him through prayer and meditating
His word. I need to soak my mind with God's word. I have to memorize
Scriptures for that is my defense against the enemy. I should not
listen to the negative things the enemy is telling me rather I should
listen to what God is telling me in His word and speak that truth to
myself which would help me draw more closely to God for His glory and
not be easily deceived by the enemy. I have to be on guard always
with God's help.
