Discouraged but Standing Strong

Are you going through something right now and you're struggling with, trying to hold on? I want to tell you this is one of the greatest strategies of the enemy is depression and discouragement because what it causes us to do is to pull away from everything that strengthens us.

We pull away from strengthening ourselves in the Lord, and we pull away from being strengthened by God, and we kind of just get to a point where we just kind of collapse. We're not standing anymore, we're a puddle, and at that moment we have to stand, and we have to ask for help. If any of you were in that place, an act of humility, and an act of wisdom and strength, and true power, is to say I need help and I need you to pray for me and I need friends around me that'll come alongside me.

God wants to use this thing in the midst of this, and depression, or whatever else you are struggling with, and yet not the yet, still standing, yet persevering, it's in the face of the enemy. Every time we do it, it's not just about our feelings, it's not just about us getting over it, it's about us being a supernatural expression of the manifold wisdom of God.

In the supernatural realm, that's what it says to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms. They're watching and they're observing, and so all of these things that Satan means for evil turns for good as the believer puts their trust in the Lord.
