Don’t Give Up on Yourself (3)
By Rev (Dr.) Lizzy-Johnson Suleman
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 92-94
TEXT: And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. Matthew 14: 29.
Every great man you see standing whether in this our contemporary times or in scriptural age had terrible experiences that would have swallowed up their evidences if they had given up in them. For the children of Israel, it was a terrible situation of acute bondage in Egypt for 430 years and while they escaped, the red sea showed up followed by the wilderness.
For Joseph, he had dream terminators amongst his own brethren who did all they could to terminate his dream and he had to journey from a dry pit to the Potiphar’s wife plot, then the prison before the palace showed up. As for Daniel and the three Hebrew boys, through them we saw the lion’s den and the burning fiery furnace experience. If they had given up at any moment because of the threat of those circumstances, they would have lost their crown.
I looked at Nehemiah and wondered! God laid in his heart to build up the broken walls of Jerusalem and had God’s good hand upon him which procured the king’s favour, but he still had Sanballat and Tobiah to contend with all through his assignment. Jesus, our perfect example was not left out. He was confronted with oppositions; the Sadducees, Scribes, Pharisees, the storm and several seemingly impossible circumstances. But He prevailed so that you can prevail.
We are in a race; a race in which runners have to jump over hurdles until they get to the finishing line. When you overcome one hurdle, you generate faith again to overcome the other.
Redemption has put us in a vantage position to jump over every hurdle and reveal God’s glory. This is why you should fear not and display confidence as David said in Psa.23 :4.
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I pray, I arise and press forward, in Jesus name.
