If you're suffering through some hard times wake
up to the blessings around you. During times when the problems seem so great — the
blessings are even greater. The problems are temporary, or subject to change,
but God and His Word of victory are never subject to change! You'll
be much more effective in battling the problems if you're giving God the glory
for the solutions He's already provided. Take your eyes off the trouble and wake
up to the blessings - it is breakthrough time - a time for rejoicing - you'll
soon be shouting the victory!
Kenneth Copeland
“For our light affliction, which is but for a
moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” - 2 Corinthians 4:17
It's easy
to get your spiritual eyes fixed so firmly on the problems in your life, you
overlook the blessings completely!
As a
result, you end up suffering through situations that should have you rejoicing.
Let me
show you what I mean.
Not long
ago, this ministry was facing some great financial pressures. I stood in faith
against them.
What I
didn't realize was this: During that time when the problems seemed so great —
the blessings were even greater.
This
ministry was growing faster, ministering to more people, writing more letters,
printing more publications, sending out more teaching tapes than ever before!
It was a
breakthrough time... a time for rejoicing. But I didn't know it because I was
too busy thinking about the problems.
I was so
"tunnel-visioned," all I could see was the pressure, and I suffered
through some hard times when I should have been shouting the victory.
But thank
God, H/ woke me up before it was over. He woke me up to the blessings and
reminded me that the problems are temporary, or subject to change, but God and
His Word of victory are never subject to change!
You'll be
much more effective in battling the problems if you're giving God the glory for
the solutions He's already provided.
Take your
eyes off the trouble and look around you. You'll soon be shouting the victory!
Scripture
Reading: Psalm 13
Kenneth Copeland Ministries' mission is to
minister the Word of Faith, by teaching believers who they are in Christ Jesus;
taking them from the milk of the Word to the meat, and from religion to
reality.
