Encouragement
FOR THIS PURPOSE (Exodus 9:16)
God displayed His power through great signs and wonders when He was preparing to deliver His people from bondage in Egypt. During this time He spoke through Moses to Pharaoh on multiple occasions, including this one. Although these words were originally spoken in another context and time, hear them today as specifically for you, as God reminds you that there is a purpose for where you are. You may be experiencing a time of discouragement and difficulty, but be assured that God has good things in store!
Your life has a divine purpose, and it is for the glory of God. Some of us may wonder why we are facing a dry or difficult time if God is with us, but He has a very different view. It is true that this world has many pitfalls and that we have an enemy who looks for opportunities to attack us, but our Father is always with us. He never abandoned us or left us alone. He is looking for His sons and daughters to see His power and purpose in everything and to believe Him for the good Father He is. Your life has a wonderful purpose – to bring glory and honor to the name of the King, and with Jesus by your side, there is no battle you cannot win! Through this very situation, your life’s purpose begins to be fulfilled, as you trust God and believe that you will overcome.
Every challenging situation is really an opportunity to rise up and be a testimony. If we could change the way we see the problems that arise, it would transform our lives! How different things could be if we saw the challenges of life as stepping stones to greater things, or as opportunities to prove the Word of God and the love of the Father. They are times to grow in our faith and see the mighty hand of God in action. These difficult situations are occasions to partner with the Holy Spirit and overcome, in the powerful name of Jesus. Once we have walked through the fire holding His hand, we know that He never lets go; we know that He gives us strength and peace and power to make it to a better place! You are an overcomer in the power of the Holy Spirit, and a wonderful testimony unfolding. People are going to be amazed and give glory to the name of Jesus when they see how things turn out in your life. There is something mighty waiting to happen, and you are surely heading for higher ground!
God wants to show His power in and through you. Dear friend, you are not in this situation by chance. God has placed you where you are with an assignment and an appointment. Your life is on display for the world to see and know that God is a loving Father who cares about His kids, and that He is alive and still seated upon His throne. When people in your work place see you get healed or see your marriage restored, or see your debts paid off, they cannot help but accept that God intervened in your life and that He is powerful and real. Your miracle is in the making, and if you can believe that almighty omnipotent God wants to and can display His power in you and through you, there is nothing impossible to you. I declare the spirit of breakthrough into your life today – to see signs, wonders and miracles manifested wherever you go, and to see your own life situations bowing their knees to the Name above all names, to the power and glory of Jesus!
He has raised you up. You may feel like you are not important or that your life is not valuable to God, but He sees you as a priceless pearl, the one He redeemed and raised up. In His eyes you have been placed on higher ground, because you are (in the spiritual realm) elevated to rule and reign with Jesus. You are not some insignificant number wearily driving your car back from work each evening. You are appointed and anointed and born for a purpose. God has an awesome destiny and calling for you and He wants to display His power, His love and holiness to a needy world through you. He has placed you where you are to be a stairway to heaven, a portal for people to meet with Him. You are His tabernacle, His place of praise, the temple of the Holy Spirit, hallelujah!
There is always a ‘but’ with Jesus! This is our doorway to breakthrough. However hard your situation may seem, however bad the doctor’s report, or the financial situation, please let the Holy Spirit remind you that with God there is always a ‘but’. Man was doomed to die but Jesus stepped in to be the sacrificial lamb. He has been intervening in our lives (but-ting in!) ever since. The enemy stirs up a war against us, but Jesus. You may have been maligned and discredited in your workplace, but Jesus. Your blood reports or the pains in your body may be discouraging, but Jesus. Your spouse may seem far from the Lord and from you but Jesus! He has your breakthrough in His hands, and if you would just let Him “but” into your situation, you will see the amazing restoration, renovation, reconciliation, transformation He has for you. All may seem to be lost, but Jesus!
My precious child, I want to fill you with My peace and power this day. I want you to know that you are so cherished, and a treasure in My sight. Your life has to be filled with meaning, because I have raised you up for this special purpose, and caused My light to shine upon you. I am turning things around for you, and My name will be exalted and glorified through you. Believe Me, receive My Word, and see it fulfilled and open great doors for you. I have raised you up that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.Minoli Haththotuwa, 19 September 2015
