Don’t Give Up on Yourself (4)
By Rev (Dr.) Lizzy-Johnson Suleman
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 95-97
TEXT: And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.. 1 Samuel 30 :6.
There are godly wisdom to apply to overcome challenges and hurdles on one’s path which aim at making one give up on oneself.
1. Let Go of the Past: The past in his context refers to past defeats and old nature of sin. No man wars entangling himself with these things. They are burdens that weigh one down making the hurdles or challenges stronger than one. They blind one’s vision from insight to overcome. Listen; even if you just had a defeat, the present challenge is a different ball game all together.
2. Encourage Yourself in the Lord: Most people give up because certain persons who they look up to for encouragement disappoint them. No man can truly encourage you in this race of life. Until you encourage yourself in the Lord, encouragement will not be in view. Scripture says, “… strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.” Eph. 6 :10.
3. Search the Scriptures: The word of God makes you think positively, because you know what you have at work in your favour.
4. Pray Without Ceasing: When you engage in prayers as expected speaking to the Father consistently and then to the mountain, you overcome cheaply.
5. Watch Your Company: A wrong company is a pollutant. Flee, while the day is young.
6. Relate With Your Prophet: God has given the Prophet the grace to pilot the sheep of His pasture to their place of destiny.
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray, I give myself to applying your wisdom. I will not give up on myself.
