A Battle Against God


When God says NO and you are still insisting that it is YES. Is it a familiar situation? This is a situation where we battle against the will of God.

 All of us at one point of our lives battle against His will. No matter how close we are with Him, there are still instances that we try to fight against Him. For some it might be a battle over their own lives and for others, only a battle over an area of their lives.

As for me, I know that I had a battle against the Lord for almost four months now over one specific area in my life. And no matter how I tried to win, I end up losing the fight all over again. I cried all night because I cannot accept the fact that what I want doesn’t happen and will never happen. Tears always flow from my eyes whenever I tried to think about what happened in this specific area. My heart always aches every time I insist with Him that the answer to my question should be YES.  

For four months, I am in pain because of this battle until one day; I realized that what I am doing is meaningless. When I asked Him to take away all the things that shouldn’t be there in my life, He already made a way in order for Him to hold this area. But I have never seen the truth that from the very beginning, He keeps telling me that He wants to be in control in this area of my life. But I never listened to him for four months. Instead, I keep insisting on my will and not on His. It hurts me so much because I realized that all along I am trying to hide this area away from Him. It breaks my heart as I recognized how I break His heart as I stubbornly battle against Him. I was in pain for four months because I was battling against Him. It’s hard to admit but my pain is caused by my own stubbornness and disobedience.

So today, I made a decision to surrender this specific area of my life. I let Him hold it so that He can control it.  Letting go will not be easy for me but I pray that He would give me courage to do it. If this is His will for my life, His grace will be sufficient for me because His power is made perfect in my weakness. This time, I am no longer battling against Him. Instead, I battle with Him because a battle with Him will always be a victory in our lives.
