If God can bring blessing from the broken body of Jesus and glory from something that's obscene as the cross, He can bring blessing from my problems and my pain and my unanswered prayer.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Blessing is the soveraign act of God, and the power of benediction like the power of God.
Now I am near to the getting of my crown, which shall be sure; for I bless the Lord, and desire all of you to bless Him that He hath brought me here, and makes me triumph over devils, and men, and sin: they shall wound me no more.
If you hug to yourself any resentment against anybody else, you destroy the bridge by which God would come to you.
My self healing lies in praying for those who have harmed me.
I just hope people see that if God can do something beautiful with my broken pieces, then God truly has a plan for each and everyone of us.
I prayed often for deliverance from the pain caused by my decision to abort my baby. I suffered the threat of cervical and breast cancer and experienced the pain of empty arms after the baby was gone. And truly, for me, and countless abortive mothers, nothing on earth can fully restore what has been lost; only Jesus can.
God can only do for you what He can do through you.
May nothing entice me till I happily make my way to Jesus Christ! Fire, cross, struggles with wild beasts, wrenching of bones, mangling of limbs - let them come to me, provided only I make my way to Jesus Christ.
We must not sit still and look for miracles; up and doing, and the Lord will be with thee. Prayer and pains, through faith in Christ Jesus, will do anything.
God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.
