Have You Fallen Recently?
Maybe you failed in an area you thought you had overcome. Maybe you gave in to temptation, lost your discipline, became discouraged, or life simply knocked you down harder than you expected.
Brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, your failures do not have to become your identity. Falling does not mean the battle is over. You don't have to stay down; arise!
Micah 7:8 KJB says:
“Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.”
Notice those words: “when I fall, I shall arise.”
If you sinned, repent. Learn from it. Remove what keeps pulling you back. Strengthen the weak places. But do not spend the rest of your life regretting it or beating yourself up over it.
Sometimes getting back up is simple. Open your Bible again. Pray again. Go back to church. Do the work. Ask for forgiveness. Take the next faithful step.
Today is a new day, a new opportunity to serve God. If you have breath in your lungs you have a blessing from the LORD.
Hebrews 12:2 KJB says:
“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Do not keep staring at your failures, mistakes, regrets, or the past.
Look unto Jesus.
We all get tired, wounded, disappointed, or ashamed...but we are still here by the grace and mercy of God.
He is still faithful. His Word has not changed, and His strength has not weakened because you stumbled, nor is it revoked.
So pick up the sword by opening the Word, cling to Jesus Christ, and get back to the battle.
Your failures can teach you and humble you, but they do not have to define you.
When you fall, arise.
Keep trusting God.
Keep enduring.
The battle is not over.
God is with you through it all!
