It may look like some things in your life have lost their flame. Dreams that didn’t work out, promises that didn’t come to pass. But just because it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean it’s over. Somewhere beneath all the ashes, those embers are still burning. All you have to do to reignite the flame is stir it up. God is still going to finish what He started.
The trouble is not there to stop you, it’s there to propel you. God wouldn’t have allowed the storm if you weren’t going to make to the other side. You haven’t seen, heard or imagined what God has in store for you.
No person can stop the blessing, the purpose, the destiny that God has laid out for you. You’re going to be an example of God’s goodness so other people can see the hand of God on your life. You don’t have to go somewhere else to have the blessing; the blessing is on you.
The squeezing, the pressing—that’s not how your story ends. Real victory is not won in public; it’s won in private. On the other side of suffering is the power of resurrection. The enemy doesn’t have the final say; God does.
