ARISE, STOP COMPLAINING!
I never heard of a good soldier depressed because of the war. No. He takes his weapons and goes out to win the battle. That's his training, calling and responsibility. Let's get this done quickly and effectively, he would say. No wars, no soldiers!
And never have I heard of a competent medical doctor complain of the presence of patients in his hospital. What for? It shows his skills are trusted, reliable and effective. So, with great enthusiasm, he simply takes his stethoscope and confronts the challenge at hand. That's his specialty, calling and ministry. No diseases, no medical personnel!

1 Timothy 1:18.
...Here are my instructions for you, based on the prophetic words spoken about you earlier. May these Words of God be the weapons to help you fight victoriously in the Lord’s battles.

2 Timothy 2:3,4.
Endure hardship [to be spiritually tough, violent BUT COMPASSIONATE] as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. Such soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of carnal life, for then they cannot please the Lord Jesus Christ who enlisted them.

Now, it's very appalling and unfortunate that we, the sons of God who are God's current and ONLY battle axes and anointed vessels on earth, waste time complaining, murmuring and whining whenever challenges come knocking. As God anointed and sent Jesus Christ to destroy the works of the Devil and manifest the will, glory and blessings of God, so are we, the body of Christ Jesus anointed, with the power of the Holy Spirit to CONTINUE destroying the works of the Devil, receive, manifest and minister the salvation, glory and blessings of God to the world. The anointing on us is not a fanciful souvenir we hang on our walls and brag about! We should be and do like Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. Get to work. OFTEN, WHEN PEOPLE MURMUR AND COMPLAIN, IT MEANS THEY HAVE TIME. GIVE THEM SOME RESPONSIBILITY!

Psalm 90:12
Lord, Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.

Psalm 39:4,5.
“Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered—how fleeting my life is. You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.”

Acts 10:38.
And you know that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Then Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for that was WHY God’s PRESENCE was with him ALWAYS.

You're a problem solver. You are the solution creation is eagerly awaiting. You are a blessing wherever you go. Put the anointing and your gifts to work for God to have something to work on. Do it by faith, whether you FEEL like it or not. God's presence and approval will always be with the person GOING ABOUT DOING GOOD, because Go is good! If the need is there, then be there. The worst of times are the best of times, because that's the best time for God to demonstrate His exceptional, infallible and incredible power THROUGH YOU. Hallelujah!
