Every problem that we face, we have to face it head on and treat it as a challenge. It is a challenge to grow and get your reward.
There was 3 people passing the road, and one day, there was this big rock on the road preventing the people to pass. The first one says, I will just go and turn around and hopefully tomorrow someone will remove it. The second one stopped, and try to remove the rock but it was to heavy for him so he decided to just turn around and let someone else move it. Then the third one, stop and try to move the rock and use all his strength and did everything he can until he move the rock, and finally did it, and under the rock was a diamond. Sometimes you see a rock in your path, remove it with call your mind as there is a reward afterwards. Never back down with any obstacles coming your way.
In life, you will always face trying times and difficulty. Always remember, in every storm, there is calmness after. But during the storm, learn what you can learn through it. Never allow the storm to stop you from your destination. Always pack an a lot of strength from God to deliver you. And enjoy while in that storm. You will never solve it by crying and doing nothing.
Faith is the first thing you must have when facing difficulties. Faith in God first. The storm is there for God is also there during the difficulty. Faith is the evidence of things we hoped for. If you are looking for evidence, faith is the only evidence you need.
If a rhino is about to attack you, the first instinct you would do is run. Two things you will receive , either you get hit and get a whole in your body or you are dead. Facing a rhino has to do with how you will react, you just have to stay still, and don’t do nothing, similar to a bear attack, you don’t run but be still. Your problems are the same as the rhino or a bear, you don’t run, Dave it and be still. The Bible says, be still and know that I am God. But a normal reaction is to run away from problems, but if you want to come out a winner, face it head on. Don’t deny it, just stand still and know that God is there to help you through challenges.
Waiting upon the Lord, He will give you strength and soar like an eagle, higher than your storm. It is hard for people to wait and be still because we want instant answer, like you put God in the microwave and when it rings it’s done. Waiting means you are to worship and thank God for challenges. Until you acknowledge that the challenges you are facing is part of your growing, you will linger in it and lick your wounds.
While you are still and waiting make sure you are armed with victory song. Wearing the armor of God is to march with victory or worship song. When you are guard with the armor of God, you are to sing with the worship and praise as your chants. People are easily deceive with what to do, and they worry. If you are a child of God, don’t you think the fear you have is not for you. It is false evidence appearing real in your life.
Celebrate every little wins and victory as it’s is always a reminder of the landmark you’ve been through. Every victory makes a land mark in your life, so people will be inspired about the land mark you set. It is not for you to see, but for others to see how came through the storm.
Things to face difficulty:
- Access your faith in God
- Be still and know He is God
- Wait upon the Lord
- Celebrate the victory
- Mark the landmark so others to learn
