Topic: Rising From Temptation to Testimony [Sunday November 19, 2017]
Scripture: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
Thought For The Day: Do not let your condition determine your confession; let your confession swallow your condition, and your condition must vomit your portion.
A temptation is simply a test that qualifies a person for the next level (mostly spiritual). The way a student writes a test or an examination to be promoted to the next class is the same way temptations serve as the examinations that qualify a person for the next level in life.
That is why whatever you pass through in life is because of what will pass through you. Out of your mess comes a message; out of your misery comes your ministry; inside your insult is your result.
The truth is, the more terrible the things you pass through, the more terrific your testimonies.
Note that, many times, whatever you suffer in life is because of what you will offer to life. The pain you feel may be the pain you can heal.
Thus, never give up on God or yourself because of your condition. Never let your condition determine your confession, rather, let your confession swallow your condition.
I prophesy to you today, you are rising from the realm of temptations to the realm of testimonies. Your shame is giving way to your fame. Your pain shall be replaced with your gain, and your story is changing today, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember This: Do not let your condition determine your confession; let your confession swallow your condition, and your condition must vomit your portion.
Assignment(s):
1. Never give up on God because of your condition.
2. Keep making positive confessions consistently in times of travails or trials.
Prayer: O Lord, I connect the power to overcome every temptation or trial that comes my way in Jesus’ Name.
