The victory is yours, and with that thought in mind you should praise Him in the middle of whatever situation you are dealing with. You are on your way down the path that God has for you and your steps are guided. Get excited about you because God has not lost His enthusiasm for His most beautiful creation.
Good day to you all! I am praying that on today you hear that still soft voice that is God speaking and guiding. I am praying for what is cloudy in your life to clear up with the clarity that could only come from God. Stay strong
When I was in the third grade I had an issue with a bully on the school bus. I was being targeted by someone who thought that I was weaker than him. This particular boy did not know me and he had a history, and a reputation for being a trouble maker. Day after day I received threat after threat from this little boy. One day I told my father what was going on. I told him about the little boy and how on a daily basis he would harass me. Keep in mind, in my eyes this boy was a menace. To me, from my point of view, he was a terrorist, a monster, and a villain. However to my father, he was just another little boy. My father went to the bus stop with me the next day, and he stepped on that school bus and said in a loud voice, “Who is bothering my son?” Silence was all you could hear on that bus on that morning. On the day after that my former bully became one of my best friends and we are still in touch to this day.
Dear Reader I want you to know that when this world starts to bully you, call on your Heavenly Father. When you are facing financial terror, or a monster called unemployment let your Father know what is going on. You may be harassed by heartbreak and depression, and that villain called betrayal. Once you call on your Father whatever you are up against will have to fall back when He steps up and says, “Who is bothering my child?” Understand Dear Reader, what you see as a problem God does not see as a problem. God looks at your problems the way that my father looked at that little boy. Now the little boy came to his senses and left me alone, and if your enemies were smarter than a 3rd grader they would do the same. Proverbs 1:7 says, “The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; Fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
On this day, I want to encourage you to not let people or the things they do get to you. When you know the Lord is your shepherd, when you know that God is able to work a way out of no way out. When you put your faith in He that has created all things, Dear Reader you can look at your enemies and your situations and ask, “Are you smarter than a 3rd Grader??” You can look at them and say, “Don’t you know that my Father is going check on His child and find out who is bothering me??” Don’t be surprised when the ones that had intentions to harm you becomes friends of your cause. Fear not Dear Reader, you are in God’s hands and anyone that would want to do any harm to His anointed must not be smarter than a 3rd grader. They better be cool and stay in school.
You are beautiful, you are loved, and you are blessed
