God Fights for Me

How I needed to hear that Jacob-wrestling God fights for me.

I've recently joined a team of women who pray for other women at our church while they are in support groups for Sexual Abuse healing. Having gone through the curriculum myself, I know how terrifying, overwhelming and hopeless the journey to healing can seem. This is why we fight, on our knees, for the hour that they meet. I've never done anything like this before, but God brings verses to pray over them, specific issues to pray against, it is crazy. Exhausting, but you get a sense that you are in a battle, fighting for these women. Fighting for their freedom. Fighting for their wholeness.

Today, I was reminded that the God of the Armies of Heaven fights for me. For us. After actually doing the work of fighting on behalf of others, it was a sweet reminder of my God's heart for all of us. He created us and we're worth fighting for.
