A Mess Or A Message?
How do you see the not so little water in that glass? As half full or half empty? Perception is everything.
Negative perception yields negative conclusion, while Positive perception yields positive actualization.
In the case of a troubled circumstance, have you ignored the mess(es) that's glaringly scornful and subscribed to the message, hence learning from its lessons? Until we begin to take cognizance of the message communicated to us in every situation (either positive or negative), we'll never have dominion over the circumstance even though we emerge winners.
Anchor Scripture: {Deuteronomy 1:34-35
"When God heard what you said, He exploded in anger. He swore, 'Not a single person of this evil generation is going to get so much as a look at the good land that I promised to give your parents. Not one - except for Caleb son of Jephunneh. He'll see it. i'll give him and his descendants the land he walked on because he was all for following God, heart and soul."
Vs 37b: "Your assistant Joshua son of Nun, will go in."
As long as the Israelites identified with the mess instead of the message during their walk to the Promise Land, it multiplied the years of their sufferings. Their continual anger, disobedience, murmur and complaints deprived them of reaching the promise land. And because God perceives negative mindedness as sin (Galatians 5:19-21), He wiped the negative minded generation, retaining the promising/ positive minded clans (aged 20 years and below) who understood His mind and trusted His lead.
Cry, Wail, and Lament all you want in the face of adversity, but never forget to uplift the message from the mess and run with it. It's the only way to obtain merited victories.
Have a Message-Filled day!
