(Amplified Bible)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will the devil just move to the side and allow you to walk in this deeper place? No, the enemy will attack you more often and harder, or so you think. Problems at home double, on the job triple, and at church quadruple. You promise to do whatever God says until you find out what you have to do. At this point; what do you do? Do you dig in and see the salvation of the Lord, while you allow the Lord to grant your request and strengthen your resolve. Or, do you change your mind because the battle is \u201cmore than you can bear\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Psalm 27:13-14 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. 14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
