The children of Israel fought several wars before getting to the promised land. Even in the promised land, they fought to stay there before they were established.
The price they paid to become an independent nation entailed wars and blood. Those battles they fought were necessary before they could attain rest. After fighting several battles, the Lord gave them rest on every side and none of their enemies could stand against them.
I don't know the battle you have been fighting all these years. Now is your season of rest from all battles in Jesus name.
Some have lived a life full of battles. As one battle ends they enter into another. Some have never enjoyed life for once. I know some people in this condition. Their problem is their identity.
The woman with the issue of blood was like that until she exercised faith. The bible did not mention her name because her health issue became her identity. Instead of people calling her Mrs xxx, they called her by the name of her problem.
One day, she touched the helm of Christ's garment by faith and she was made whole( Mark 5:25-34).. If you exercise faith in God, your life will experience rest on every side. Faith in God is the key to experiencing rest from the battles of life.
I decree into your life today, you will experience rest from all of life's battles in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
The battles that have given you a wrong identity shall vanish in the mighty name of Jesus
Father, enough is enough, let all my battles end in victiry right now and let me experience rest on every side in Jesus name.
