TODAY’S WORD
The apostle Paul says that if you see pressure, difficulties, and setbacks the right way, if you stay full of joy and don’t get bitter, then that pressure is making you stronger. It’s doing something inside, getting you prepared for what God has in store. God knows how to put on just the right amount of pressure so we don’t get complacent, we don’t put our faith on autopilot, but we keep stretching and growing.
Here’s the key: Pressure is going to produce either faith, hope, and endurance, or it’s going to produce discouragement, weakness, and “can’t do it.” The question is, What is the pressure producing in your life? Are you seeing it as negative, not fair, letting it defeat you? Have a new perspective. See it as healthy pressure. It’s there to help you grow, stay fresh, build your faith, and release your potential. Keep doing the right thing when it’s hard, being at peace in the pressure, staying calm in the conflict. That pressure is about to launch you into a new level of your destiny.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You are refining my character and using the pressure of difficulties to make me stronger and grow me up. Thank You that You are building up my faith and preparing me for what’s ahead. I declare that I will be faithful and not take the easy way out when pressure comes. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
