Sometimes, you can feel like you’re chained to your problems forever. You’ve prayed, and you’re still waiting for your deliverance from what has worried you, given you anxiety, and kept you from a good night’s sleep.
But God has a plan for you (Jer. 29:11).
THE MESSAGE: A problem may seem so big that you cannot see a blissful outcome, but just pray, believe, and know that the Lord is orchestrating your exit—your blessing awaits.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. — Ephesians 3:20, NKJV.
And when your trials and tribulations come to pass, remember what the Lord has done for you.
Until next time, God bless!
