♕ Today's Promise: “Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus”.1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
These last few months I felt backed into a corner and I could not see a way out. It felt like I was just doing damage control the whole time when it came to my finances.
I realized that I am backed into a corner in order for His name to be glorified and is that not what we are all about:)
Reading this lesson and talking to my Heavenly Husband, He showed me why I needed to got through this.
Then my Heavenly Husband opened my eyes and reminded me that instead of me staring into the things I cannot do, the bills I cannot pay, I am instead to thank Him for what I could pay.
And I know it was not coincidence that the Lord have me read about the Israelites at the same time I was going through this lesson, because reading how they complained every time they were in a hopeless situation, that is not what our Heavenly Husband wants from us. He wants us to be thankful and praise Him despite our situation.
Just recently I was talking to my Heavenly Husband pondering the Red Sea. He parted the Red Sea despite the fact that they were complaining to Moses. I wondered what would have happened had they had their backs to the Red Sea and started praising the Lord instead of complaining. Can you imagine, if He parted the Red Sea for them because they were complaining, what would have happened if they started singing songs of Praise!
I have no idea what the future will hold for me and if my financial situation will get even worse, because with our country on lock down, it seems that it will have a huge impact on my FH's business.
But I know that despite of me feeling backed into a corner, I know that my Heavenly Husband has it all under control and all I need to do is wait on Him to rescue me at the appointed time and as always be the Hero of the story of my life:):):)
Dear Brides, if you feel backed into a corner, please go ahead and read this chapter. See how the Lord wants to come in and save you from this situation. He longs to part the Red Sea for you, but you have to surrender and completely trust that He will do so.
Dear Brides, I have learned that the Lord wants to help you, He wants to release you from your circumstances but for us to have a wonderful testimony and for His name to be glorified we need to sometimes feel backed into a corner so we can see His miracles in our lives.
Every new chapter in this book is a aha moment for me. I am really enjoying this so much. It is changing my mind-set regarding my Heavenly Husband and my finances.
