MAKING CROOKED PLACES STRAIGHT




MAKING CROOKED PLACED STRAIGHT




Isaiah 45:2 (KJV)

I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:

Can you make a crooked place straight without the power of God?
God's grace blesses us in spite of our shortcomings.  He goes ahead of our steps, covers up ditches and enables us to walk through the wilderness without a scratch.  He gets in ring and fight with us against the struggles and strongholds that we can't fight off by ourselves.
When the scriptures state Him breaking gates of brass and bars of iron, that means God is powerful over all circumstances.  No matter how hurtful,  big and horrible the problem may appear to be, God is in control.  We can only see in the flesh what seems too hard for us to handle.  Indeed it is too hard for us.  That's why we must give it over to THE ONE who is mighty, wise and sovereign.

The devil can make things seem pretty scary.  He can put all kinds of thoughts in your head to make you feel fearful, insecure, helpless, etc.  Those are tactics to weaken you and get you to lose faith in what God can do.

God has already promised.  
The battle has already been fought and the victory is won.
