Hi dear Brother Navigator, and it really does appear you're in the battle. Praise God that you're not alone as He is always with you in the fire. Consider the following scripture and know God is on the job in all our lives.
1 Peter 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
Dear Father, I praise You for protecting this dear saint as You lead him in Your paths and establish his walk with You into Your perfect will for him. Please strengthen him, and give him the peace, grace, and mercy he needs to go forward. Thank You Father for hearing me this day and may this life of Navigator continue to grow as You instruct him in Your precious word that he will glorify You in all his ways. I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
