Biblical Answer

When everything feels like it's against you, it can be challenging to find the strength to keep going. However, as Christians, we have a source of strength that is not dependent on our circumstances. This strength comes from God, who is sovereign over all creation and who can move obstacles out of our way as we pray and trust Him. In order to tap into this strength, we must first acknowledge our weaknesses and our need for God's help. This involves confessing our sins and asking Jesus Christ to pull the arrows out, as it says in 2 Corinthians 12:10, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." We must also learn to pray and trust God, rather than trying to control outcomes or deal with obstacles on our own.

Another key aspect of finding strength in the midst of struggles is learning to win the battle for our minds. This involves managing tension and not trying to eliminate it, but rather choosing to live with it. It also means being aware of the Enemy's ploys and not entertaining his voice. As it says in 1 Peter 5:8, "Be alert and of sober mind; your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." We must stay alert and keep our memories sharp before God, and not be abnormally examining our inner selves, looking forward with dread. Instead, we must focus on the good things in ourselves and in our lives, and on the promises of God.

Ultimately, finding strength in the midst of struggles requires a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As it says in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." We must learn to pray, "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil" (Matthew 6:13, KJV), and to have an intimate relationship with God, where we can find encouragement, hope, and strength in the midst of our valleys. By doing so, we can overcome our weaknesses and find the strength to keep going, even when everything feels like it's against us. We can learn to pray conversational prayer, and to trust God's sovereignty over all creation, and to find victory in our lives through Christ.
