TEXT: “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he..” (Prov 23:7)
I will like to say that it is your mentality that will determine your lot in this season of restoration. In life, we all experience times of loss or have situations where it feels like something has been taken from us. Sometimes it’s because of other people’s choices. Other times, it’s because of our own choices. But the the good news is that, God is a God of restoration. He did not say we would not have unfair situations, He promises if we would stay in faith, He would restore everything. That’s what He did to Job. When God restores you, He doesn’t bring you out the same, He makes the enemy pay for bringing the trouble into your life.
God is so merciful, whether it was your fault or somebody else’s fault that brought you into the situation you’re currently in, the good news is that God is not only going to bring you out, He is going to bring you out better than before. Get that down in your spirit. You may have made mistakes yes, God’s mercy is bigger than your mistakes. I want you to possess a restoration mentality this month and onwards.
Now, say to yourself: “God is going to bring me out better.”
“People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving. Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house” (Prov 6:30-31 – NIV).
Like I pointed out before, God’s idea of restoration is to increase, to improve, to promote and to make better. You may have gone through a loss or someone did you wrong or maybe it was even your fault, you made poor choices. The enemy would want you to believe that things are never going to change. My dear, shake off that doubt and self-pity. You may have suffered a lot, your attitude should be: “I know my God is a God of restoration, and I’m coming out stronger, better off than I was before. Hallelujah!”
PRAYER: Your restoration happening now, in Jesus name.
DAILY CONFESSION:
This year 2024, I am advancing in adversity because I’ve been redeemed to flourish in hard times therefore my life shall be full of wonders. Amen and amen.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: “God’s idea of restoration is to increase, to improve, to promote and to make better.”
