There’s nothing wrong with going after what you want. But some things aren’t meant for us to chase.

If you chase God, the blessings will chase you.

Matthew 6:33 (KJV) – but seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Stop trying to find a way around the storms in your life. Let God be your anchor.

The only way out of a storm, is through it.

Psalm 23:4 (KJV) – yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

We do our best trying to please God. But, we don’t realize we can never please God in the flesh. The flesh is weak and sinful.

Our faith in God, is what pleases Him.

Romans 8:8 (KJV) – so then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) – but without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

The enemy will trick our mind to tell us to don’t do anything, when in fact something should be done. Or do something, when nothing needs to be done.

In every situation there is a choice, to do something or don’t do anything. Either choice, you’re doing something.

Don’t let satan take advantage of you. Know his trickery.

II Corinthians 2:11 (KJV) – lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

We can control how we go through the storms in our lives. We can let the storms be a slight rain drizzle, or we can let them turn into a tsunami.

What is the forecast in your next storm? The choice is yours.

Psalm 27:1 (KJV) – the Lord is my light and salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Is it worth it to stand by someone other than yourself? Fight for someone other than yourself? Actually, carry someone else’s burdens?

Absolutely! You will receive your reward, in due time.

Galatians 6:2, 9 (KJV) – bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Everyone is not meant to like you. Nor is everyone you meet, meant to move forward with you, in your life. Some are simply there, to make you totally uncomfortable, to push you forward.

Accept the push.

II Corinthians 12:7 (KJV) – and lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.

What or who is the first thought on your mind when you wake up?

Are you worried about the issues of the world? Or is your mind focused on God, ready to let Him carry everything for you, surrendering to Him, thanking Him, glorifying and praising Him?

It is God’s will for us to be glad in the days He has made.

Wake up and rejoice! Be glad!

I Peter 5:7 (KJV) – casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Psalm 118:24 (KJV) – this is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

No one can steal your joy from you. It is you who have allowed to give it up.

Don’t give up your joy!

John 16:22 (KJV) – and ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

Why do we try to mix things, that are not meant to happen?

We do wrong, and ask God to bless our wrong doing.

Your sins separate you from God. Stop trying to mix those things that are not meant to never work together.

Isaiah 59:2 (KJV) – but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
