For you to discover who you are, know and understand He made a plan for you. It is to be found in Him so He could give you your purpose and destiny IN a recreated Spirit; He made you ALIVE in Christ. The Lord says, “Ask of Me and I will show you great and mighty things that you do not know (Jeremiah 33:3). You should never seek your life outside of Christ, everything is found in Him.
When we begin to truly look at ourselves in the mirror and reflect on our Personal Growth we see and recognize that the difficult experiences force us to look inward and reflect on our choices, behaviors, and beliefs. By engaging in self-reflection, we gain a deeper understanding of ourselves, our motivations, and our values. This introspection allows us to make positive changes, shed unhealthy patterns, and grow into a stronger and more self-aware individual.
Faith plays a crucial role in conquering defeat. Through Christ Jesus, we find strength, comfort, and guidance. His teachings and example reminds us of the power within us to overcome challenges. By placing our trust in Him, we can experience a deep sense of peace, knowing that we are not alone in our struggles. Faith allows us to surrender our burdens to God and find solace in His unconditional love and grace.
There will be a new heaven and a new earth, for the first ones will be no more and no more sea. New Jerusalem will come down from heaven, prepared as a bride for her husband. The overcomers will inherit all but sinners will have their part in the lake of fire and brimstone and this is the second death.
People also procrastinate because they ignore the value of time. Everyone has a limited time to spend on earth. In light of this, time is the most valuable commodity you have. It’s not money; unlike time, you can borrow money, save, or earn more. You can’t do that with time. Every single second you waste is gone forever. It is important you value time and use it wisely. Seneca said, “while we waste our time hesitating and postponing, life is slipping away.”
Fulfilling your purposes and destiny will not come without resistance because you have an adversary, the devil, that knows once you recognize WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, you will destroy his kingdom of darkness, advancing God’s kingdom.
We should focus on doing our best and being true to ourselves rather than seeking validation from others. When we accept that we can’t please everyone, we free ourselves from the burden of trying. We can focus on what’s important to us and not worry about the opinions of others.
Walking through it all when life seems hard can be challenging, but it’s possible. Take everything one step at a time, practice self-compassion, lean on your support system, take care of yourself, and keep a positive mindset.
We are the light of the world and our lives and character is expected to reflect Christ. Just like Daniel in the bible, he stood for what he believes even when he was faced with trials and challenges.
When it comes to a man and a woman there will be times we have to let go of pride and allow the other side to be “right”. Pride can not stand in a marriage. If it is permitted to live in the heart of either one, the marriage will falter.
