Dear whoever is reading this message,
I would like to encourage you today to stay strong, stay in position, and keep walking in God's purpose for your life! Just because things are not going well now does not mean your future is going to be the same. Your present circumstances are not forth coming attractions of your future. Things will get better, much better!
Your present circumstances have the potential to determine the kind of choices you make. Even if things are hard and you see no end to the misery, make a choice to trust God. The fact is, there is an end to the hard times. Winters always end! Don’t let the “winter” you are going through right now determine and dictate what choices you will make. Step out, pursue what God has called you to do. Don’t shrink back, don’t fear. I have done that a lot in the past! Because things were hard and seemed unchangeable I thought my future was pretty much the same. But that is not the case. And this is the battle I fight constantly. God has an amazing plan for us and no matter what the enemy brings our way we need to keep our eyes on Jesus and what He has spoken to us.
Please, don’t let your current circumstance determine what you expect for your life. Maybe you don’t have the money you need but don’t let that stop you from pursuing what God has called you to do and reaching for your dreams. Don’t allow your circumstances determine your expectations. Expect God to do great things in your life even if things are falling apart in your life right now. He will come through for you!
This last thing is so important. All the points I have mentioned are important but this one needs special consideration. Don’t let your present circumstances dictate your faith in God. Your present circumstances have a way of blurring God’s greatness. It’s hard to see God when things are crazy in your life. It’s hard to see God when nothing seems to be working. Don’t let your circumstances dictate your faith in God. Keep trusting in God. Don’t lose heart. God can be trusted. If everything fails your faith is the one thing that should remain. I have to make a conscious decision to trust God. Even when I feel discouraged, even when nothing seems to be working and even when things don’t look like they are going to change.
When I talk about present circumstances, I am talking about the difficult times we go through, the hard times, and the confusing times. I pray that your faith continues to be strong in the face of adverse circumstances. God wants us to trust Him because He knows the end. Things will get better, much better. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and winters always come to an end! It’s all because of God’s grace! Have a Blessed, Prosperous, and Productive Day!!!xoxo , Dr. J. Bennett
