What if You Are the Only One Holding On?

Ecclesiastes 4:12 ERV~ “An enemy might be able to defeat one person, but two people can stand back-to-back to defend each other. And three people are even stronger. They are like a rope that has three parts wrapped together—it is very hard to break.”
What if your spouse has let go of you and your marriage? Has the enemy truly won? You may feel that way and it may appear to be that the enemy has prevailed over your marriage. However,  that simply is not true because you are still hanging on–still holding on faithfully to your cord and God’s promises. Even if you are barely hanging on, have faith that you are not holding on alone!
The word I want to share with you is a word on faith.
◆ Satan operates through our doubt and unbelief. He knows just where to hit us!! All the sensitive spots and weak chinks in our armor we must strengthen because he knows where they are and waits to pounce on us when we are unprepared.
◆ God operates through our faith. God leaves it up to us to strengthen our grip on His promises. His Word tells us in Hebrews 10:23 KJV “ Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised”. Let’s look at what the Message version of that same verse says including verses 24-25: ” So let’s do it—full of belief, confident that we’re presentable inside and out. Let’s keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let’s see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.” Hold fast to the profession of faith that your marriage can be restored without wavering for God is faithful who promised!!!
IT’S UP TO US TO BELIEVE in Him! God’s promises always come to pass so the ball is in our court to BELIEVE! Do you believe God can restore your marriage?
◆ Remember, in Mark 9, a father came to Jesus and asked Him if he was able…yes, if JESUS HAD THE ABILITY to cast out the demon that was trying to drown and burn his son alive in fires? We often bring our problems to God and say “God what can you do? Can’t you get rid of this trial that’s causing me so much heartache? We take our problems and give it to God.,, asking and praying but coming from a place of QUESTIONS and unbelief!
Read Mark 9:20-24~  ” 20 So they brought the boy. But when the evil spirit saw Jesus, it threw the child into a violent convulsion, and he fell to the ground, writhing and foaming at the mouth.21 “How long has this been happening?” Jesus asked the boy’s father. He replied, “Since he was a little boy. 22 The spirit often throws him into the fire or into water, trying to kill him. Have mercy on us and help us, if you can.”
23 “What do you mean, ‘If I can’?” Jesus asked. “Anything is possible if a person believes.”
24 The father instantly cried out, “I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!”
We have to stop asking if God will or can make His promises come to pass! Don’t ask if it’s possible for God to restore your marriage. KNOW AND BELIEVE that HE CAN!!! HE IS FAITHFUL!!!! And He is not a man that He could or would lie!  We have to ask Him to help us overcome our unbelief!  It’s up to us to believe on Him and His promises!
God is moved by our faith! “And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.” (Hebrew 11:6).
We have to speak His Word aloud instead of worry, doubt, and fear-based questions rooted in unbelief. We have to renew our minds continually– strengthening our faith by reading His Word.
Uproot Doubt by ->> Changing what we speak->> Which reflects our brief. How Can You Uproot Fear and Doubt?
Philemon 1:6~ “That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.”
Change in our belief systems from unbelief to belief reflects a mind renewed in Christ!!! When we get a word, are in the presence of God and praising Him is not where our faith is. It is proven in the testing of whether we will stand and hold fast to God’s promises–that Word we received! It’s proven that by us not letting, but holding fast to believe, God will do what He says He will do!!! Your spouse may have let go of their cord, but you hold on tightly because God is still holding the first cord! He will not let you fall! Start right now to communicate and speak aloud of your faith in the restoration of your marriage by acknowledging every good thing which isvin you in Christ Jesus! In Christ, we are more than conquerors, not defeated by the enemy!
“But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.” – Romans 8:37
AMEN
Thank You Jesus!!!!♡
