Today's
Scripture:
being
confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to
completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
Philippians 1:6, NIV.
Philippians 1:6, NIV.
Today's
Word:
Sometimes
when things don’t turn out the way you thought; when they don’t happen on your
timetable, it’s easy to get discouraged and feel like God has let you down.
But, I believe that simply means that God has something better in store for
you.
If you’ve
been praying, obeying His commands and standing in faith but you didn’t get the
answer yet, now is not the time to back down. When one door closes, God always
has another door.
We have
to remember that the enemy is the one who is trying to bring discouragement.
He’s trying to get you focused on the closed door instead of the open door just
ahead. Don’t fall for the trap! Keep moving forward. Keep praising God in the
hallway. Stay in faith knowing that God has something better in store for you!
Prayer
for Today:
Father, thank You for Your faithfulness in my life. I trust You even
when things don’t turn out the way I had planned. I know that You are working
behind the scenes and bringing something better into my life in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
