~Purpose over Problems~
The strength and durability of your purpose outweighs the temporal frailty of your problems.-Shavra
IT’S A LIE!!! IT’S A LIE!!!!! I know it may be a difficult way to begin a blog but hey it’s the truth! What’s the lie?! That whatever you feel your shortcomings are that some how they have caused you to be short of God’s ability to use you! I'm going to list a few leaders with a ‘few’ problems:
CASE #1: Deborah: Perhaps one of her biggest problems would be the people of her day. Her gender wasn’t a factor for her but it was a problem for others. From the spirit filled Bible(NKJV): A female judge whose multiple leadership functions demonstrates the possibilities for any woman who will allow Gods spirit to fill and form her life.
CASE #2:The 3 Hebrew Boys: A HOT MESS!!! LITERALLY ! We all know they were thrown into the furnace….seems like a BIG problem right!? But why? Because they refused to allow the music to influence their worship and allegiance to the Real King(don’t worry I’m not gonna go deeeeep into the secular music conversation this time! Lol…breathe). Know this that their purpose was to have faith and that faith outweighed their problems!
CASE #3:The Woman with the Issue of Blood: THE ISSUE OF BLOOD WAS NOT THE ONLY ISSUE SHE HAD! Y’all know that right?! All of her life savings (if she had much…being that she was probably unmarried and jobless due to her medical state) were going towards her health care. The ‘whisperings’ concerning why she always sick probably were rumbling around the social networks of her day! I’m not saying she didn’t have ANY friends…I’m just saying how many of your friends stayed around for more than a couple of years while you worked out some things? Exxxactly! So 12 years of ‘can you give me a ride to the doctor and I don't have gas money???!’ But among her many problems was purpose and persistence. She pressed through the (crowd)pop culture that wanted to see Jesus! The man whom everybody was talking about. Perhaps she knew the value of clothes, the energy of crawling for her last hope, and the COST of healing ! PURPOSE over PROBLEMS!
SO WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM???? HUH???? Is it sex? Weed? Rejection? Death of a loved one? Depression? Suicidal thoughts? No father? No mother? Low self esteem? Abandonment? Pride? Fear? Feelings of no self worth? Doubt? Religion? Molestation? Abuse? Your Past? Rape? Porn Addict? Over-eater? Sickness? Loneliness? Religion? Whatever it is…there is nothing to hard for God! If you have never heard it before…YOU CAN BE DELIVERED from all of these things! Not only that but God will make you whole and use you! You can plug in your name all throughout this posting. If you are still struggling in some of these areas-know that God cares and He sees you. Don’t give up! Keep pressing! Surrender all things to Him by seeking Him first.
So what can we take from this? That there is a measure of faith in us all. A measure of ‘you can keep going’ in all of us. I pray that this will encourage you that nothing can stop your purpose and destiny!!!!
God loves you soooooo much! Know that joy comes in the morning! Don't allow your circumstances to change your level of praise, prayer, study time, and fellowship!
