This week's teaching devotional:
22nd July 2024Your attitude to what happens to you and your disposition to your trials, will determine greatly how you come out of it. It is easier to sit around weeping than it is to rise up to begin to rebuild the old ruins, raise a new city out of wreckage, start over on the ruined cities and to take the rubble left behind and make it new. You don"t need to run away from your problems, if you do, you will face them again. You must learn to face them! David ran towards Goliath. Someone said, if the devil is after you, you are probably facing the wrong direction turn around and face him! The Bible says David attacked the Amalekites from twilight until the evening of the next day. So David recovered all...
(1 Sam 30:17-18). That is the attitude and disposition that will recover all; as opposed to the one that sits down and wonders why things are going wrong. David said, I have pursued my enemies and overtaken them; Neither did I turn back again till they were destroyed. I have wounded them, So that they could not rise; They have fallen under my feet. For You have armed me with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me. (Ps. 18:37-39). A lot of folks "down tools" when they are going through challenges in their lives. That should not be the case if you would see God turn your captivity around. Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, Bearing seed for sowing, Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, Bringing his sheaves with him. (Ps. 126:5-6).
Even in your tears, you can still sow and in your weeping, you can still be bearing seed for sowing; that is the guarantee for a joyful harvest! A farmer who didn"t put any seed in the ground, has nothing to look forward to. God said, as long as the earth remains, seedtime and harvest shall not cease. (Gen. 8:22).
