There comes a time in each of our lives when the rubber hits the road. A time of testing; a time when God will require you to go far above yourself. A time when we need to "lift up our heads to the hills from whence cometh our help!"
Most of the time we think that we are alone in the midst of our trials. Like Elijah, we tell God, "…and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away" (1 Kings 19:14), when the truth is that there are another 7,000 that have not bowed down to Baal. Right now God is preparing a people with fire in their eyes and healing in their hands that have not bowed down to Baal; Christians that will join with you as you do war against the enemy.
You see, it is during these times of testing (amad) that we see the gianst as too big for us. Like the Israelites, we see a defeated vision of ourselves. "33. And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight…" (Numbers 13:33) (KJV)
When you come to this time of utter desperation. When you feel that there is no where else for you to turn, this is the time when you need to listen doctor Luke, "…And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh." (Luke. 21:28)
