Arrows of Victory

 

Then Elisha said, "Shoot,"

           and he shot.

And he said,

"The LORD's arrow of victory..."

             2 Kings 13. 17

(When we follow

      God's direction in this,

even when it doesn't appear

           to make sense,

God brings His victory

in unlikely and unexpected ways.

He releases

            His arrow of victory.

There are no small victories,

      only eternal ones.

There are no small obediences.

We may not be able

      to see the outcome,

but we can trust Him into it.

Victory is not about winning

    but being faithful.

Victory is not redefined,

   but what is being redeemed.)

O LORD,

We pray as You guide us

    into this day

    or into this fray.

Help us to claim for You

  whatever You have

  put before us.

It is not about success

           or failure,

but what You do with it.

Soak our situations

     with Your glory.

Empower us to bring

   Your grace and mercy

into volatile circumstances,

that all concerned

   will know You are here.
