Calling on the army of God

Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;

according to your steadfast love remember me,

    for the sake of your goodness, O Lord! Psalm 25:7

Last week I felt overcome with a desire to something I knew was wrong. My entire flesh wanted to do it even though I knew it was wrong. I remember "self-talking" that I could resist it. I couldn't do it. I was so weak. I was praying but my response was overshadowed by my "self talk". I couldn't hear God's voice and therefore couldn't hear the way out 1 Corinthians 10:13. I then asked my family and friends to pray for me. It was like I had requested an army to join me in the fight. They all came with the solution I needed for my problem. The amazing part is that they did not know the exact nature of my problem. I have since triumphed over my temptation. I would like to thank all my family and friends for praying for me. Thank you Lord Jesus for forgiving me long before I could utter the words of my repentance. Thank you for forgiving me for the sake of your goodness. I have since forgiven myself and I am now free again! 

Sometimes you need an army to pray with you to conquer
your personal battles

God bless.
