Keep doing the right thing. Don't take matters into your own hands. Let God be your vindicator, and in His time, the enemies you see today you will see no more. What was meant for your harm will be turned to your advantage. ------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | | | | Today's Scripture | | But Elisha said, "As surely as the LORD lives and as you live, I will not leave you." | | (2 Kings 2:2, NIV) | | | | | | | | Stay Faithful | | When the prophet Elijah was about to be taken up to heaven in a whirlwind, three times he told his assistant Elisha that he did not need to go with him to Bethel. But Elisha, who had taken care of Elijah faithfully, wouldn't hear of it. His attitude was, "I'm committed to you. I was with you in the good times of miracles, and I'm going to be with you to the end." Elisha had plenty of reasons to walk away, but he was committed. Because he stayed committed to serving Elijah, Elisha received a double portion of Elijah's anointing and ended up performing twice as many miracles as Elijah did.
When you stay committed to your marriage, to your church, or to your job even though it's hard, a double portion is coming—double favor, double honor, double resources. When you do the right thing when the wrong thing is happening, God will make things happen that you couldn't make happen. Stay committed, stay faithful, stay loyal. You're close to your breakthrough! | | | | | | | A Prayer for Today | | "Father, thank You for the double portion that You have reserved for those who stay committed when it would be easy to walk away. Help me to do the right thing when the wrong thing is happening. I believe that my breakthrough is coming. In Jesus' Name, Amen." | | | | | | | | | | YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK | | You are Victorious! This book will help you see that the spirit of God within you is stronger than any obstacle you will ever face. God is working behind the scenes on your behalf. He is making a way where there seems to be no way. | | OUR THANKS FOR A GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT | | | YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK | | You are Victorious!
