Proverbs 3:11–12 says, “My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor detest His correction; For whom the Lord loves, He corrects, just as a father the son in whom he delights.” Do not be discouraged when you go through difficult situations. Oftentimes, God uses foolish things to draw us closer to Himself. What we might consider to be a bad experience can be the turning point we need for our breakthrough. Ask Joseph, and he will tell you that the rejection he suffered was the turning point he needed for his future; what his brothers meant for evil, God turned it around for good.
Your place of destiny requires you to be strong-hearted. Take note that God is always on time; He is never too late and never too early. He is building character and rightful focus in you to mature you and prepare you to maintain your blessing when it comes. When you know the purpose of your situation, whatever happens midway will not dictate your direction since it is meant to strengthen you. As a believer, your situation calls for thanksgiving; praising God should be your attitude towards trials because when trials come, your promotion is near. We urge you today to pick yourself up and repair your relationship with Jesus Christ.
PRAYER: “Father, draw me nearer to you so I can know what you are saying about my situation, in Jesus’ name!” Amen!
