Dealing with discouragements

Good Day! How's life so far? Are you even encountering problems, challenges or disappoinments maybe? The question is, how would you even handle them?

 

First, we must always remember God's promises.

Humans as we are, we are forgetful. Satan or the devil would really try to steal those promises from God. For example, Satan will make you doubt and question God's word. This is Satan's old trick. We should always remember God's word and proclaim this always. When problems and adversity arises, sometimes instead of turning to God for help first, we sometimes doubt and question Him. We sometimes ask advice from the wrong people or even turn to the ways of this world just to relief or escape the agony of that problem. Just for example, the drunkards on the streets. They just got drunk all day not minding or solving their problems. They asked for advice from their friends and got the wrong one.

 

An example who trusted God: Job

 It does not mean if God sends you problems He does not love you anymore. Everything He does is in line with His Perfect Will.  Did you know that this problems in life strengthen your faith in God.

Even Job in the Bible trusted God when everything in his possession was taken away. In his story, God tested the faith of Job. God took everything of his property and he even got sick. He has the option to just do nothing and drink. He has the option to mock God for the problems and disappointments but he did not. Instead, he praised God for the situation.  Look at his life, when he trusted and praised God for his trials and problems, knowing God is with him, a great breakthrough happened! He even got richer, even got hundredfolds of blessing.

Life Problems

See 2 Samuel 5:17-25.

What battles (spiritual, emotional, physical, financial) are you facing now? What is your usual line of defense? Has it worked in the past? You can follow the steps David took before you wage war. Start by seeking the Lord's guidance. Consider 2 Corinthians 10:4: "We use God's mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments." When you feel fearful, soak in God's presence and stand in the power of his might .


Remind yourself, You are an overcomer by God's Grace.  As it says in John 16:33:

"In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Spiritual Barriers

Do you have these? Spiritual Barriers in Receiving GOD's Blessings
1. Covetous Spirit
2. Rebellious Spirit
3. Worldly Spirit
4. Prayerless Spirit
5. Unforgiving Spirit
6. Critical Spirit

As Psalms 66:18 says:

" If I hide sin in my heart, the LORD will not hear me."

Spiritual Warfare

Welcome! How's your day? We'll be talking about a battle within you. Let's get this started. Prepare your hearts and ask God to give you revelation and protect you. This is a very serious topic all of us should know and be aware of.

Problems?

In what color would you describe your week?  Having problems in your life lately? Let us listen to His voice and His words. Do not solve your own problems without asking for His help. It would be a foolish thing to do if we do not submit and surrender our problems to our all-knowing God. Despite all unfavorable situations and problems in your life, why not thank the Lord?

God's Faithfulness

These are words of encouragements about God's love towards us. The more we know Him, the more we seek Him, the more we realize that God is good.

Will of God

It is so great if we depend on the Holy Ghost on His guidance. We need to put on in mind that God doesn't make mistakes. He is like a Father. He wants what is best for His children. He is very much willing to be involved in your life and He is willing to guide you.
