YOUR STRENGTH IS IN YOUR LEFTOVER

"Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation". Hab.3:17-18
There are times God may allow bad things happen to good people especially His favourite children. Note the word 'allow'. It doesn't mean God is the author of it. God doesn't have bad goods so there is no way He will give you what He doesn't have. However, God may temporarily fold His hand and watch you go through crisis after crisis.

God permits all these to happen to change your perception about Him. Once your perception about God changes, your life will start to change tremendously.

Don't mourn your loss. It is a waste of time. Your worth is not in your possession or accomplishment. Detach yourself from what you are so that you will discover who you are.

It is in crisis that you unlock your identity. Crisis unlock your potentials. When you pray the prayer of purpose, what you're saying is "God, detach me from things and attach me to you. Don't fight the pressure you are facing presently for it is in the place of pressure that your treasure is unleashed.

The devil causes people to go through trouble so as to turn them against God. But God uses those crisis to teach us to praise Him. Don't argue when life doesn't give you a better deal than you deserve. Don't complain or murmur. Don't play the blame game because things are not going your way.

Praise is one of the way to rejoice and express joy in the LORD.

The next time crisis knock at your door, don't grumble or react. Smile and praise God. Go on your knees and worship God.  Your strength is not in what you have lost, your strength is in your leftover.

When you are left with over with God, He will give you speed to cover all lost ground and walk upon high places.
