“Each of us strives to be more and more like our Father in heaven. Isn’t our goal in life to be more like the Lord, living, walking, and always abiding in His grace and mercy? We aim to live our lives in His anointing and the fruit of the Spirit. We do our best to please the Lord, considering what He would do and choose in every situation. Some believe that problems should never arise, especially when they are living their lives for the Lord and striving to be what He desires. However, I am here to tell you today that when we pray in this way and seek God’s face, asking Him to make us more like Him, we will face persecution, ridicule, hatred, lies, and gossip. We will encounter many difficult circumstances in our lives. Amen!
Yes, we will face situations beyond our control because the Word of the Lord tells us that in this world, we will have troubles. But it also tells us to be of good cheer, for the Lord has overcome the world (John 16:33). Praise the Lord! The Lord also tells us that we will be hated by all men for His name’s sake, but he who endures to the end shall be saved (Matthew 10:22). Amen! The book of John says that if the world hates you, know that it hated Jesus before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, and because the Lord has chosen you out of the world, the world hates you (John 15:18-19). The Bible tells us that when we face trials, persecutions, and temptations, we should count it all joy. Knowing that the testing of our faith produces patience, and we should let patience have its perfect work, so we may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing (James 1:2-4). Hallelujah!
“So today, my heartfelt prayer is that if you are in a valley of life or climbing a mountain of life, I pray that God our Father meets you where you are and gives you the strength, courage, and wisdom to face and overcome it all. Amen! May He fill your cup of life to overflowing, so you are full, at peace, and content, knowing that the Lord is with you and for you. You are His child, and His eyes are always upon you. I ask and pray this in Jesus’ name. Amen and Amen. Be blessed today, my dear sweet friends, and remember, wherever you go and whatever you do, be a light for our Father. Much love to you all, Mandi.”
