Let God Redefine Your Situation
What you say when you face a situation affects how you approach it. Let God redefine your situation by seeing it as He sees it, not by what natural people see or say.

Faith isn’t a confident expectation that God will do something He said He’d do today in the future. That is trusting God to fulfil a vision He has shown you, and it requires your firm stance in the Word, hope and patience. But for faith, it’s taking God at His Word no matter the situations that speak against it.
Faith and patience work together. If you have faith that God will do what He said, pray and be patient unto Him to fulfil the vision. It’ll take time, but it’ll get accomplished. Fret not!
Have you ever extremely desired something from the Lord, which men think it’s impossible because of your infirmities? The heart’s desire is there, but people are saying “Shut up; that is impossible.” In such cases, what do you do? You’ve got to shout louder to Jesus.
God can do what men think it’s impossible. He can turn situations around for your good. He can change your standard of living from today. But do you believe He can do it?
In Ephesians 3:20, one of Paul’s concluding exhortations in a part of the letter to the Ephesian church, it’s written that there’s a God who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that you ask or even think. But by what means does he do this? – According to the power at work in you. And what’s that power? It’s the same power that raised Jesus from the dead – the power of His resurrection (Philippians 3:10, Romans 8:11). That power lives in you ever since you got saved (John 1:12).
It may seem your life circumstances contradict what God told you to do now. But I assure you that, He will bring what He has said to pass.
Instead of doubting God’s promises about your life, ask Him for explanations. Stay with Him until You hear him answer all your questions so that your faith in His Word will stand strong. For that is what Mary did to Angel Gabriel until her faith in giving birth to Jesus stand strong despite challenges surrounding it.
Child of God, be rest assured. God will clothe you. He’ll do it so well that you’ll be shocked. Trust Him to provide, even when you didn’t expect Him.
You reap what you sow. If you sow in the Spirit to know God and follow Him closely, you’ll reap significant eternal life of purpose and divine direction plus heavenly reward.
Fret not when you see challenges opposed to your calling. The Lord will perfect everything that concerns you. He will work things out for your good. In all your ways, submit to Him.
David trusted the saving power of God so much that he knew God would never forsake him. What about you? Do you believe God will save you in every situation when you call upon Him? Did you know that God will never run out of resources to provide for you?
