The
3:2 Pitch
Have faith in God, Mark 11:22.
• Strike 1!
• Strike 2!
• Strike 3!
• OUT.
It’s the bottom of the ninth. Last chance to
score with two outs. The Christian is in the batter’s box. The devil is on the
mound. He’s pitching his best curve ball, knuckle ball, fast ball, and every
other foul ball he can throw. Onlookers are standing—sighing with every swing. The moment is TENSE. Here it comes. The
3:2 pitch. . .

When
trouble strikes and we feel cornered, this is not the time to take matters into
our own hands. We can’t fight this evil spirit with physical weapons. He would
like for us to waste time trying; but, we wrestle not against flesh and blood.
This is a spiritual battle (Ephesians 6:12). SPIRIT vs. spirit. Psalm 55:22
tells us to cast our burdens on the Lord.
Our
help comes from Heaven. It doesn’t matter if it’s a family problem, financial
problem, health problem, people problem, etc. What’s impossible with man is
possible with God (Matthew 19:26). FAITH in God is our Answer. Nothing is too hard for God (Jeremiah
32:17b). All we have to do is humbly submit to His ways. He will direct us out
of our tight fixes (Proverbs 3:6). We might think it’s too late or all hope is
gone. But, that could be God stretching our faith. He’s Always On Time. God can change a situation in a FLASH!
