My Friends if you are caught in a wrestling match with someone... you probably will stand a 50-50 chance of winning or losing. Your chances of winning is higher or lower depending on how weak or strong your oppnent is?
What happens if one day... the Lord allowed you to wrestled with Him?
The good news is this... In God's wrestling match... the Lord wants you to win! He wants you and I to prevail and win not because he is weaker tham us or that he gives in to our whims and fancies ... but because He wants to bless us out of that wrestling match.
You see.... our Lord don't have to win... He just wants us to learn something out of it so that he can bless us from what we have learnt! Isnt our God a good God? He first gives us the grace to learn and then rewards us after we have overcomed when in the first place it was His grace that helps us.
In the bible in Genesis 32:22-31 ... We find Jacob in a wrestling match with God. Not the typical WWF match that we see on TV, but a match where the Lord allowed Jacob to hold on to him. He allowed Jacob to come to the end of himself as he held on to God for his dear life that unless God bless him , he will not let God go. He does not want to die in the hands of his brother Esau.
Out of that wrestle, the Lord allowed Jacob to win and made him a Winner by also changing his name to Israel (He Struggles with God). Jacob has struggled with God and has overcomed! Verse 28
My friends... if you are in a situation now and you find yourself praying to the Lord and the Lord seems slow in responding.... dont give up because finally out of that wrestle... the Lord will make you a Winner in Him. He is just waiting for the right moment to turn your situation around and bless you.
God Bless!
