TODAY’S MESSAGE
In the Garden of Gethsemane just a few hours before He was arrested and taken to be crucified, Jesus was under such pressure and anguish that His sweat became like great drops of blood. He was praying, “Father, I’m at My breaking point. If it’s possible, take this cup from Me.” But the Father was silent. At that point, an angel appeared and strengthened Him. Jesus had been deeply troubled and under great sorrow, but He became empowered with supernatural grace and peace to face the cross. He received everything He needed to finish His purpose.
You will never face what He did, but whenever you feel overwhelmed with pressure, you can know that God will send angels. All the forces of darkness cannot stop what God has purposed for your life. You may be in a dark hour, you don’t see how you can face what’s in front of you. God has already dispatched the angels. He’s about to breathe strength and power and endurance into your spirit. You’re going to come out, not the same, but in the power of the Spirit.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that when the difficulties in my way look bigger, stronger, and overwhelm me, You send the angels to help. Thank You that the forces of darkness can never keep me from my purpose. I believe that You have supernatural grace and the power of the Spirit for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
