"BLESSINGS Outshine BAD NEWS!"

BLESSINGS have the ability to overtake and outshine BAD NEWS! Bad news come to all of us occasionally. Bad news has its affects mostly on those of us who do not have an active and intimate prayer life with God. A prayerless Christian, is a powerless Christian. The more time we spend praying to Holy Father, the more our faith is strengthen in He – Who is the “Author and Finisher “of our faith. Prayer doesn't change God. But it does changes the one who prays. In a strong prayer life, we will learn that faith will get in the ditch with you. Faith will go in the prison with you. Faith will go into any situation you may find yourself. Sometimes we turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God who is shaking them. We are truly blessed, because we have a God whom we can turn to when we need Him in the midnight hour. I’ve learned that midnight can occur at 9 o’clock in the morning or 3 o’clock in the afternoon. I am talking about a time when I may fear an unknown or an uncertain future. Then His Spirit reminds me to never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God. Do not seek God because you need an answer. Seek Him because you know that He is the answer that you need! Many people want to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while climbing it. Regardless of the outcome, bad news has less effect on us when we are blessed with His grace all around us. Life is too short to be offended by little jabs, when we should be focusing on giving the devil a knockout punch. One of the greatest gifts God has given us (besides His Son) is inspiration of the Holy Spirit. With God’s inspiration, bad news just doesn't have a chance.
