An Encouraging Word
A friend of ours was talking to us the other day and asked us, “If you were given a Golden Ticket and you were able to choose what you could do and where you could go, what would you choose?” Honestly, it didn’t take too long to respond because it was a hypothetical question. Or was it? Does God’s Covenant with us not promise us His blessings as we put our hands to work? And did He not say that God’s power within us will enable us to do far more than we could ask or think?
“…for it is He who blesses you with bountiful harvest and gives you success in all our work.” Deuteronomy 16:15 NLT
“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity…” Proverbs 21:5 NLT
“Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more that we might ask or think.” Ephesians 3:20 NLT
Now let me ask you, “What would be your Golden Ticket opportunity?” What would you want to do if you were given a chance? What is stopping you? Nothing will stretch your faith like believing God for the success of your job or your business - every phone call for work, every customer, and every bill to be paid. Day in and day out, you have to rely on the faithfulness of God and His Covenant of Blessings on your life. That is Biblical Faith - believing before seeing!
Finances, time management, taking risks, hard work, and how to treat others with honor and respect are all things that need to be passed down from one generation to the next. God will be our Teacher and He will faithfully bring godly men and women alongside us to guide us. And in the meantime, we can be the ones who step up and find others that we can teach and mentor. “Holy Spirit, lead us. Holy Spirit empower us. Holy Spirit, fill us and flow through us as we advance the Father’s Kingdom. In Jesus name, Amen.”
