This is the mantra that I live by. Big deal if I tried and it did not work; I will just try another thing. But a lot of people are laden with regrets about the things they should have done but did not do. But that is going to <!--more-->change, in Jesus Name.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sometimes we get to a place in life where it seems there is no break, no opening, or no opportunity. A place where it seems as though nothing is opening up. If you are in that category, the first thing you need to know is, just remain faithful and the opportunity will come. Just stand your ground, something always happens. Bernard Baruch says, \u201cWhen business is good, people believe that it will always be good. When business is poor, people believe that it will always be poor. <strong>Neither is correct<\/strong>.\u201d So if you are worried about not having openings or opportunities, do not worry, your opportunity is here already, in Jesus name. Just stand your ground something always happens.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">During the Second World War there was a lot of pressure on Winston Churchill to negotiate with the Germans. But he refused and chose to stand his ground. Everybody thought he was crazy. But he knew that the deciding factor of that war would be the Americans. And the United States of America said they were not going to participate in the war. But Churchill said something will happen and America will fight. And something happened, the Americans joined the war and in fact they determined the end of the war. They asked him afterwards how he knew the Americans were going to join because he was so resolute. And Winston Churchill said, \u201cI have studied history and history shows that if you persist long enough, something always happens.\u201d Do not give up &#8211; something is going to happen! It may look like everything is going to crash but just stand your ground; something is going to happen in your favour. And when it happens, exploit it!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: I decree that I will stand my ground in every season because Jesus is my unshakable foundation and things will play out in my favour, in Jesus Name.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cFinally the seventh time, his servant told him, \u201cI saw a little cloud about the size of a man\u2019s hand rising from the sea.\u201d Then Elijah shouted, \u201cHurry to Ahab and tell him, \u2018Climb into your chariot and go back home.
