However, If You Are Facing It, Then You Can Handle It. Yesterday, we learnt that the battle is fiercest when the road is shortest. And if God is taking you through the shortest route, then it means you are ready for the battle ahead.<!--more--> However, when the road is long, the sustenance of God is abundant. When the road is long and winding, God is training you\u2014you are going through endurance training, obedience training, and military training. He is training and forming you. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/EXO.13.18.NLT\">Exodus 13:18<\/a> \u201c\u2026Thus the Israelites left Egypt like an army ready for battle.\u201d (emphasis added). This is very instructive so pay attention.<\/p>\n<p>They were dressed up for battle, but they were not ready for battle. The truth is you can deceive people with your dressing and your outlook. But you cannot deceive God with your outlook. You can deceive us, and deceive your social media followers with your packaging, but you cannot deceive God with your packaging. God sees through it and God knows that you are not ready for the battle. Keep your dress on but come for training. So, the route you are on is customized for you. Sometimes, it is a pill that is difficult for us to swallow because when we look at our path, there is nothing glamorous about it.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, I tell you the truth, if I were to choose the path, I would not choose the path that my life has gone through. I will choose another path. I will choose a very easy path. Many of us will choose the path of our brothers or sisters. And it is because we think that person has a lovely home, and everything is perfect. They have five cars, they live in this estate, and they travel five times a year. Everyone will choose someone else\u2019s path, but unknown to you someone else is choosing your path. Someone else is eyeing you because they believe God is partial to you. What will be your honest advice to someone who is trying to choose your path? There almost is no one, if they are honest, that would say take my path, it is the best path. What does that tell you? Relax, you are on the right path. Your path is customized for you.<\/p>\n<p>The Israelites were dressed for battle, but they were not ready for battle. God took them through a customized path, a pathway that was custom made for them. Think about your life, you may not like it, but it is custom-made for you. I would not choose my path, honestly, I still will not choose it. However, people have called to tell me they wish they had my life. My response to them and advice to you is please, stay on your lane.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: Father, I ask for courage to embrace my path and stay on course, in Jesus Name.
