TODAY’S WORD
King Saul grew jealous of David’s popularity and eventually tried to kill David, chasing him in the wilderness for years. It’s interesting that even though David kept doing the right thing, respecting God’s anointing on Saul and refusing to retaliate, God didn’t change Saul and suddenly make him like David. The reality is that some of the people who are not for you, who say untrue things about you, and who treat you badly may be that way your whole life. The question is whether you will allow your happiness to be dependent on other people. Don’t put your power in their hands.
What God has purposed for your life is not dependent on whether others approve you, accept you, or validate you. Quit worrying about what they think. Quit spending time and energy trying to defend yourself. Those are distractions. God has put greatness in you. He’s destined you to leave your mark, to set a new standard for your family. Just as He did for David, if you leave it in His hands, He will take care of those who are trying to stop you.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that I can trust You to take me through difficulties and unfair situations. Thank You that my joy and happiness are not dependent on others’ approval or acceptance. I believe and declare that You are my vindicator and that You will deal with those who oppose me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
