21 Days - Day 13

Day 13:

If you were ever accused of a crime, chances are high that you would want nothing less than the best defense attorney. It is likely that you would pay a large sum of money for a lawyer who would stand on your behalf and protect you from accusations, slander, and misjudgment. The Bible says that the Lord is our mighty defender and He covers us with His favor as a shield. Shields are defense mechanisms that are used in battle to block attacks. God's favor is protection when the enemy comes against us.
When we walk with God, we don't have to walk in fear and we don't have to rely on our own strength. We can trust in His sovereignty to be just and loving toward us, and we can trust in His power to overcome any of Satan's schemes. There is no need to grasp for evidence or bear the burden of proof; simply claim the blood of the Lamb over your life. Forego arguments and rest knowing that God is your defender.
His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:9). You will experience the best possible outcome in your situation when you make surrender your strategy. You don't have to fight when you walk in favor.
 
Declare Today - "I surrender to you, God. I rest within the protection of your favor."
