Our circumstances - everything going on around us that we are exposed to each day, our current state or condition, the current state or condition of others, and the current state or condition of the environment around us. Whether good, bad or indifferent, our circumstances can distract and get us away from God's Word, and cause us to do or not do something based on how we feel instead of based on what the Word says. And when we do, the enemy has us right where he wants us, trying to move by what we think or feel and not by faith in God's Word,
One of my favorites passages of scripture, 2 Corinthians 4:18, tells us not to live our lives based on our circumstances, which are real and should not be denied, because they are temporary. Instead, we should live our life based on the Word of God, which is everlasting, the truth, and can change our circumstances.
So as another of my favorite passages of scripture, 2 Corinthians 5:7, tells us, you should live your life by faith in God's Word, and not by sight of the circumstances around you. Then your faith will be strong, effective and bring you the results you are expecting.
