MAGNIFY THE PROMISE OVER THE PROBLEM! 1 of 2
“Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy." (Psalms 107:2 NKJV)
“Oh, magnify the LORD with me, And let us exalt His name together.” (Psalms 34:3 NKJV)
In life there is always a tendency to focus our attention on the challenge, or problem, or the need, or the pain, rather than focusing on the promises from God. As long as we dwell on the challenge, the problem remains right there before us.
JESUS EXPLAINS THE SOLUTION
“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on ..." (Matthew 6:25 NKJV)
Talking about the problem, rather than talking about the promise, magnifies the need rather than God who has the solution, and who can show you what to do, to walk in victory.
“Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” (Matthew 6:27 NIV)
SPEAK THE SOLUTION
What is the solution? God is the solution. Magnify God, exalt Him, give thanks to Him, and speak to Him, and He will direct you. Sometimes, as you are worshipping God, or as you are meditating about His greatness, the situation is diffused and solved.
The voice of God comes right in the midst of focusing on Him, with answers, with deliverance, with provision, etc.
QUESTION
Why is it more common talking to others about our challenges and problems, rather than seeking God first, since He is the One who can direct our path?
“In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” (Proverbs 3:6 NKJV)
“He satisfies those who are thirsty. He fills those who are hungry with good things.” (Psalms 107:9 ERV)
God will satisfy you; He will fill you with good things. Only make Him your first, and only point of call; and He will lead you; He will make a way for you where there is no way. This is why He is the only God of all flesh.
It will be well with you. It is well with you. To God be the glory!
PRAYER
FATHER, thank You that You are always my sufficiency, and my great reward, in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Jesus is Lord!
