The Battle is the Lord's

   Sometimes the strongest people are those who love beyond all measure, cry when no one sees and fight battles only God knows 
about (in their mind).

   Blessed are the poor in spirit (those who are without faith in Jesus Christ or those who are believers in Him, who are beaten down by the devil OR who realize they can't do ANYTHING right without the Lord.)

   Psalm 109:31 "For Jesus will stand at the right hand of THE POOR (in spirit) to save him from those who (fail to see Jesus in them) [and who] condemn them."
"This poor man cried and the Lord heard him."
"Help me O Lord my God: save me by Your mercy."
"That they may know that this is Your hand that You Lord have done (for me and in me)."

   Too often in Christian's lives, they are still dealing with habits, wrong ideas and attitudes that cause them to err, to sin.
                   But remember God's Word to you; 
   "Psalm 93:18 "When I said, my foot is slipping, Your mercy and Loving-kindness, O Lord, held me up (kept me from stumbling, and falling into sin.)
   Also remember "The battle is the Lord's, not yours."
[He fights the battles IN YOUR MIND - By His Word, as well as defeating the devil and his demons that fight you in this world.]

   Jesus wants to be your ALL IN ALL here. He said, "HE increases the power of the weak. They WILL RENEW their strength as they call upon Him. 
Paul said "In weakness, we are made strong." "Let the weak SAY 'I am strong'."

   To be tempted is a trial of your faith so don't despise yourself because of how guilty you feel for what you're going through.
   Instead, remember you have the Strong One IN YOU Who comes in His mercy and Loving-kindness. He picks you up, cleans you off, forgives your iniquity, draws you near, hugs you close, whispering in the ear of your heart,  "I love you, my son. I am able to KEEP YOU in ALL your ways as you trust Me more and more.

   After all, I AM Jehovah, Yahweh, The Everlasting Father. I AM omniscient (All knowing), omnipresent (Everywhere at once), omnipotent, (Almighty), the Prince of Peace."

   The Lord will PERFECT that which concerns you and leave nothing undone.
Jesus said, "You are COMPLETE (Perfected) IN ME. I am the head of My body, the church."

   "Even youths grow weary and young men stumble and fall. 
I (The Lord) WILL uphold you with My Righteous Right hand."

   Believers in Christ, you are being renewed by the Holy Spirit, day after day whether you feel it or not.
   However, lack of prayer, Bible study and doing what you know is wrong will hinder God's Spirit in His work in you.

   Repent and return to your first love, Jesus, with all your heart.
His kingdom, His open arms and your incredible future await you.
