2 Samuel 23:11-12 says, "One time the Philistines gathered at Lehi and attacked the Israelites in a field full of lentils. The Israelite army fled, but Shammah held his ground in the middle of the field and beat back the Philistines. So the Lord brought about a great victory."
There is a mighty valor that rises on the hearts of God's people when they determine to stand their ground despite the coming onslaught before them. You may be going through a difficult time on the job. You may be facing persecution for your faith. You may not have enough money to get to the end of the week and the landlord is threatening to throw you out, but if you stand your ground (in faith in the scriptural promises of God) none of these things will overcome you. You will triumph every time in Christ.
When we get the victory in Jesus, this victory becomes the potential victory for many others. You will continue to persevere so that you will become hardened to the enemies tactics and alive in the things of God. His great hope will awaken your senses so that you begin to fight like never before.
The truth is: Your greatest days are before you.
