Don’t get stuck in your present.
Dr. Josimar Salum
Reinhard Bonnke was a man of God that lived far beyond his capacity. From a small beginning in Africa he became the most successful preacher of the whole African continent.
I posted this message he wrote:
“When you do business with people you need money. When you do business with God you need faith. Faith is the currency of the Kingdom of God.”
The point is not about doing business, but the relationship with God who teaches us that Faith is the only currency of the kingdom of heaven.
People go after money and think money is the solution of their problems.
Faith is what we need to live. Not money.
Men talking is money! The whole world goes after money. Money is an invention of men. Money obscures faith because faith in God supplies everything, even money. Faith in God elevates you above your existence.
Look at this! This is faith that doesn’t accept defeat:
“Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He makes me as surefooted as a deer, able to tread upon the heights.” Habakkuk 3:17-19 NLT
Then someone eager to prosper and overcome the challenges of life replied: “But it's not easy for some from western countries.”
Let me encourage you as I have encouraged him.
You are who you think you are! If you think there is no hope for you, you already have given up!
If you look around you with a pessimistic eye you will get stuck at your present position and condition.
If you see God beyond your circumstances you will dream beyond what you see. You will exercise your faith to get beyond what you have or who you are.
Where you are now is just a station of transition.
I encourage you to think differently.
When everyone around you is complaining about their life, you are seeing yourself above your problems and the problems of others.
Be creative. You will never get stuck where you are if you move.
You may not change how you were born, but you can change your future by changing the way you think.
Think positively.
You were born to become a champion and a king.
Start ruling above your circumstances.
Make decisions to change your life, step by step, every day you do something that will help you to fulfill your dream.
A lion don’t die hungry. You decide you will not live the way you live. You don’t know about those around you, how they will do. That is not your reference. You know about you and you have decided to overcome in life no matter how is your situation today.
Remember! You have not arrived your destination. Circumstances may not change but you will change. SOON, very soon, you will see your existing life far away behind you.
