Grace and peace upon you.

I have not forgotten to scribe Part 2 of "How to Ask God to Fight for You". It was a matter of timing and waiting for the Holy Spirit.

Please turn to Genesis, Chapter 32, verse 22.
Here we see Jacob wrestling with God after he crossed the ford of Jabbok.

Some areas to note:
*Jacob sent over all of his possessions across the stream as well as his family. He was LEFT ALONE when he wrestled with God.

Jacob wrestled to daybreak, even when his hip was wrenched during the wrestle.
He said "I WILL NOT GO UNLESS YOU BLESS ME".

Let's stop for a second and think about this.
Are you willing to leave everything and be alone with God and wrestle for your blessing? Even if you hip is wrenched during the wrestle, even if life's trials and tribulations are trying to wear you down, are you going to give up, or are you going to keep pursuing the Lord?

If you want the Lord to fight for you, be ready to enter the ring with Him alone.
Get ready for tests. Get ready to get bruised along the way. You will have to show Him how serious you are about receiving His blessing, His favor. Do you have that Jacob fight in you? Can you fight in the darkness.. in the night.. until daybreak?

"...you have struggled with God and with men and you have overcome" (Genesis 32:28b)
