Sometimes there has to be a Breakdown in order for there to be a Breakthrough
Breakdowns can create breakthroughs. Things fall apart so things can fall together.
Scripture:
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28
So often as we journey through life, things appear to be going along just fine and then suddenly, something will happen to cause things to begin to fall apart. We sometime call these things an unexpected turn of events. Or as some might say, we hit a speed bump or bump in the road. These speed bumps could be called, financial difficulties, infidelity, sickness and strife or simply “Life happens.”
The word bottom is often used to describe a condition that most would not like to find themselves, such as “At your lowest point, hitting rock bottom, bottom of the barrel, or bottoming out.” Now to most of us, none of the aforementioned conditions or places is anywhere any of us would like to find ourselves. However, when we look for positives in our negatives, we can often find something to aspire to. Such as; “To descend to the lowest point possible, after which only a rise may occur.”
In other words, sometimes the world or life’s situations that we find ourselves in have to crumble beneath us and we must hit rock bottom before we will make a change. It is at times like this that God will allow everything that we have or believe in to be taken away so that there is nothing left for us hold on to but Him.
Remember, when life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. And sometimes satan will knock you down, but God can pick you up!
Be Blessed
Prayer:
Therefore I say unto You, What things soever ye desire when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” Lord, we come before You believing that You are the one and only true God. Lord, we thank You for remaining faithful to us. Father we give thanks to You alone for loving us and watching over us. Father, help us always to put You first in all we do and say. Teach us Lord, how to remain faithful in spite of our circumstances. Help us Lord to remain prayerful and diligent in our service to You. Thank You Lord for blessing us. Thank You Lord for new grace and mercy. Thank You Lord, for the Blood, the blood that washes away my sins. The blood that protects, heals, and sanctifies. Thank You Lord, for loving a sinner like me. May the prayers of my brothers and sisters be heard by You alone. May You touch the hearts and minds of all who have come before the throne of grace today. May we always give thanks to You first. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
