Men’s View vs God’s View IV
‘There was a man named Jabez who was more honorable than any of his brothers. His mother named him Jabez because his birth had been so painful’ 1Chro.4:9.
There are times when, even though you are going about doing God’s work people will rise up and call you names. When you constantly put before you the God you are serving, what people say will become insignificant. Even Jesus who came for the good of mankind was accused of healing through the power of from Beelzebub. Can you imagine the Son of God accused of using the power of the evil one? Jesus did not take it personally. Do not let the things that people say get to you. Some people have even written us off. If they could control our next breath they would withhold it from us. But God is merciful and He alone has kept us alive. Who cares what people who don’t matter are saying concerning you? God does not care, so you must stand in agreement with God. God is on your side, are you on God’s side? Every one that desires your downfall will experience downfall in Jesus Name. Jabez’s own mother called him sorrow. Some of us are from backgrounds where we have been abused emotionally, physically, sexually, mentally and verbally. I am here to tell you that as God turned Jabez’s situation around, so shall your situation be turned around in Jesus Name. Learn from Jabez; he did not own the meaning of his name. Instead, Jabez turned to God and asked God for his own blessing and favour. ‘He was the one who prayed to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and expand my territory! Please be with me in all that I do, and keep me from all trouble and pain!” And God granted him his request’ 1 Cor.4:10. God will grant you the desires of your heart. You have the mind of Christ, above only and never beneath. God can change anything you want. He can improve or enhance, He the Creator and He made everything. There is really nothing God cannot change, He made you. The issue is many of us do not believe it. We hear it but we do not connect to it and we don’t receive it. Believe it, connect to it and it shall be according to your desire.
Prayer: I decree in the Name of Jesus, that I have the mind of Christ and I know God’s thoughts and mind towards me, in Jesus Name.
