Jerry Savelle's devotional for today is a great lesson in NEVER giving up or quitting!
FROM DISASTER TO VICTORY
But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it
for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many
people alive. (Genesis 50:20 NKJV)
If you knew beyond a shadow of doubt your present adversity
was going to turn into a glorious victory, would you give up and quit?
In the hands of God, the very thing that may look like a
total disaster today can turn into a wonderful victory tomorrow. He can turn
your tears of sorrow into tears of joy. And even while you are under attack,
you can have joy in your heart and laugh at the devil because you know you
already have the victory and will come out stronger in the end.
Joseph was a man who went through decades of adversity and
unimaginable loss. But he held fast to a vision God had given him as a young
man. In the end, Joseph saw that vision come to pass as he was put in charge of
a nation.
I don’t know what trial you may be going through today, but
if you will exercise your faith and allow patience to have her perfect work,
you will experience the Lord’s compassion and mercy. In the natural, you may be
facing a disaster. But God can use the very situation the devil has brought
against you and turn it into the greatest blessing you have ever experienced.
Choose to continue standing in faith. You have everything to
gain by standing, and everything to lose by quitting. Don’t give up. Don’t quit
believing the Word. God’s Word will bring you from disaster to victory.
Confession: I believe God will turn every adversity and
disaster in my life around for my good. I will stand in faith and trust God to
bring me from disaster to victory.
AMEN! Quitting will NEVER be the right answer! Our God is ALWAYS in the VICTORY business! Let's continue to reach for the prize and give God the GLORY! AMEN! Here is Hillsong KIDS with "I Give You My Hallelujah":Shalom in Him!
