“For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope:
for better is a living dog than a dead lion" Ecclesiastes 9:4(KJV).
I don’t know what you are going through in your life or what
you have been through in the past but I’m coming to you to say there is hope.
Whatever your situation God is there and with him nothing is impossible.
Financial trouble, your husband has left you or you have lost a loved one I’m
here to say that even if you have hit rock bottom smile coz the only place left
to go is up. Whatever the devil has thrown your way he has made a huge mistake:
he left you ALIVE. The fact that you’re here now should bring you comfort
because like He did for Job, GOD can and will restore you to your former glory
but only if you let him. So this morning please let him. I know of a woman who lost her husband a few
years back and was left to look after their three young daughters on her own.
As if that wasn’t enough her husband’s family chased her away and she struggled
for a while. But by the grace of God she found a job and now she can put food
on the table and send her girls to school without worrying. She has even bought
a stand and managed to build a cottage. She is an inspiration even to me. And
living proof that God will never forsake us. If you are sick God can heal and
give you better health than you had before like He did for Naaman. “Then went
he down and dipped himself seven times in Jordan according to the saying of the
man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child and
he was clean”.2 Kings 5:14. All you need to do is pray and believe. And be
sensitive to the instructions of the Spirit and follow them.
And now to those who think that they have sinned “too much”.
I want to say that our God is a very forgiving God. Those notions in your head
are of the devil and like I said earlier he let you live and that shall be his
downfall. My favourite verse of all time Isaiah 1:18 says “Come now let us
reason together saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be
as white as snow. Though they be red as crimson they shall be as wool”. What better invite are you waiting for? He is
ready to forgive you. The question is : are you ready to be forgiven? He
doesn’t care what you’ve done he loves you all the same. Nomatter how many
times you have sinned he wants to forgive you. It’s who he is. “For his anger endureth but a moment in his
favour is life...” Psalm 30:5. So my friend whoever you are and wherever you
are and whatever you may have done there is still hope for you to become a
better person and bask in the love of our Lord. Remember every saint has a past
and every sinner has a future.
In JESUS’ name
