Daily Feast – June 13

Keep the right attitude

And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been his acquaintances before, came to him and ate food with him in his house; and they consoled him and comforted him for all the adversity that the Lord had brought upon him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and each a ring of gold.- Job 42:10-11

Your life consists of today, the hateful middle, and your end. You know yesterday, you know a little bit of today, you don't know the hateful middle, but God knows your end. But he will not tell you all the details so you will walk by faith. He promised the Israelites the promised land but he did not tell them about the giants on the way. This is why you need to stay in faith. Confess your way to your promised land. God can give you double for what you have lost. He did it for Job. People thought that Job would die defeated, but God turned his captivity around. The same God will turn your captivity around in Jesus Name.

Set-back is normally a set-up for a come-back. The devil is not in control of your life. He does not have the key to his own house. Never fear somebody that doesn't have the key to his own house. He was spoilt by our substitute. Jesus collected the key. So, never fear the devil. The Bible devil is defeated. The devil that is not conquered is the one in your mind.

Beloved, I employ you to quit listening to the accusing voice of the enemy, Don't let the devil make you feel as if you are not worthy to be blessed. People that have been maltreated for long, carry a sense of shame around. This happened to the Israelites. But at Gilgal, God rolled away their reproach. He will roll away your reproach in Jesus name. So ensure not to dwell on your failure, for the devil likes to give you a wrong identity. The blessing of God makes up for what you do not have. God can bring you into the things he has prepared for you because He has made us joint-heirs with Christ. Our blessings are prepared blessings. Allow God to guide your steps into them and this can only be made possible only with the right attitude.

Prayer: Lord, do not give the enemy the cause to rejoice over me in Jesus Name. I decree that the counsels and the desires of the enemies against me shall not stand in Jesus Name. Lord, give me the grace to always rest in you and to wait patiently for your deliverance in Jesus Name.
