Everything God has Promised you will come to pass
There are times in life when you can feel like you have missed out on your blessings. You can walk around with your head bowed down and your spirit defeated, because you are living in regret. You tell yourself, "God is punishing me, because of the sins I have committed...I'm never going to get God's blessings, because I'm not good enough, I'm too old, I haven't done everything I was supposed to do." I know exactly how it feels to live in regret. To in the space where you are always wondering, "when is my blessing coming, everyone else is being blessed, where is my breakthrough.
I have spent years of my life worrying about what I have lost. The relationships I have lost, the friends I have lost, the dreams I have lost, the opportunities I have lost. God had to place in my heart that I was never going to be able to move forward. I was never going to truly have a future if I spent my time focusing on what has been lost. Instead God told me, " You will receive everything I have promised you." Because the blessing is never in what has been lost, the blessing is in what has been left behind.
I know that many of you are dealing with this issue right now, because the fact is so many of us waste our time looking backwards, afraid and ashamed about the things you have lost and the mistakes you have made. But here is the truth: GOD can't do anything about what has been lost, but God can work with what has been left. My prayer for you this morning is that you open your eyes, lift up your head and begin to focus on the blessing that has been left.
God has spared your life. You can still have Joy. You can still get married. Your family can be restored. Your marriage can be healed. Your sickness can get well. You are still the beloved of god. I pray that you would allow this prayer into your spirit this morning.
"Dear God, You know everything about you. You know what I have been through and what keeps me awake all night long. You know even my most secret prayers, those things I can't tell anyone else about. So now God, please open my eyes, open my heart to see your goodness. Help me to imagine what is possible. Help me to stop mourning the things and the people I have lost and help me to start living. For I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the Living. In the name of Jesus Chirst our Lord Amen.
