Press or Rest?

When to press and when to rest? When to move and when to be still?

During the seemingly "quiet" and season of "providence" in our life, those are the very moments we need to press into God and wage war the strongest. No time for relaxing and chilling, work needs to be done. There is much ground to be won and covered during this season. We are well equipped, rested and ready for battle. We can think clearly and are well positioned to take much ground from the enemy.

However, during seasons of great trial, chaos/confusion - the "desert" season, we are to be still, quiet ourselves and allow God to be God. We wage war during this season but in a different way, in prayer and worship quietly before our God. He fights our battles during times when we have no strength of our own.

In every season, God is our Defender and our Protector. He is our Chief and Commander, guiding and instructing us every step of the battle.
