For <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d (NIV, emphasis added). Do you feel you have been outnumbered? Do you feel like people have ganged up against you? Do you feel there are so many people against you? You are in good company because you are in the company of miracles. God is going to do a miracle in your life in the Name of Jesus. We have no power of our own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have to say to God, I have no power of my own. The truth is you will never have a miracle in your life until you first realize you need a miracle. This is the very reason people do not have miracles in their lives. They feel they can handle this and do that in their own strength. Miracles occur when people say, \u201cGod, I desperately need a miracle.\u201d Some people are just too full of themselves. \u201cYou mean I should pray? But I am not that desperate!\u201d That right there is the problem. It is only when you recognize that you need a miracle that you will get a miracle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Focus On God And Not Your Problems<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this is the fourth thing you need to do to turn the tide in your favour this season. Focus on God and not the problem.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/111\/2CH.20.12\"> 2 Chronicles 20:<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201c\u2026<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We do not know what to do, <\/span><\/i><b><i>but our eyes are on You<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d (NIV, emphasis added). The problem in most cases is that people focus on the problem rather than focusing on The Lord. This is one of the benefits of spending time to pray, particularly with other believers, it forces your focus to shift from your problems to The Lord. Your attention shifts from your problems to The Lord. In some cases, people are focused on what the news media is saying or the bad news making the rounds. News about which nation is bombing another nation, or the skyrocketing cost of fuel, or the spiking exchange rates. My question to you is what is The Lord saying? What is God saying? You need to focus on God and not on current affairs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Corrie Ten Boom says, \u201cIf you look at the world you&#8217;ll be distressed. If you look within, you&#8217;ll be depressed. If you look at Christ, you&#8217;ll be at rest.\u201d A lot of people are focused on what is within. That is the expressway to depression because you most likely will not like what you see. But if you fix your eyes on Christ, you will be at rest. So, Focus on God and not your problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Prayer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Father, I choose to fix my mind on You, and trust in Your salvation, in Jesus Name.
