Today's Scripture:
"He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand." Psalm 40:2
Today's Word:
Selah people' and friends all of us can look back at things that should have defeated us. Maybe a broken relstionship or bad break should have taken you down, but look—you’re still standing! That addiction, that partying lifestyle should have killed you, but because of a praying loved one, you're still standing and becoming freer. Or, maybe you lost a loved one. You didn't think you could go on. You thought you'd seen your best days, but God breathed new life into you. He lifted you out of the pit and put a new song in your heart, and here you are today, still standing.
When you go through difficult things, it’s an opportunity to see the goodness of God shine in the darkness. You see Him lift you up, restore you, promote you and heal you. When you have this history with God, you don't get discouraged by every difficulty. You don’t fall apart because of a disappointment. You don’t get upset because people are talking about you.
You know that God brought you through in the past, and He is going to bring you through in the future! Rejoice todaybecause you are still standing and headed to the place of total victory!
Prayer for Today:
Father, thank You for lifting me out of my difficulty and for helping me stand on solid ground. I trust Your goodness. I know that You are faithful. Help me stay focused on Your victory in Jesus’ name. Amen.
In Christ service,
Patrick
