Topic: Rising Above Your Mess [Seeds of Destiny 16 October 2019 Devotional]
It doesn’t matter how much you have messed up and missed it, you can still make it if you mean it; nothing mesmerizes your mess like the mercy of God.
SCRIPTURE: It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. Lamentations 3:22
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: It doesn’t matter how much you have messed up and missed it, you can still make it if you mean it; nothing mesmerizes your mess like the mercy of God.
It is established that human beings are bound to make mistakes at one point or the other in life. For as long as you are in the flesh, failing or making mistake can be unavoidable especially before encountering Jesus Christ.
The truth is, there is no perfect man, and there is no perfect woman on earth (Ecclesiastics 7:20). Everyone on earth is striving towards perfection until we meet with Jesus Christ face-to-face.
Nevertheless, that no one is perfect on earth is never a license for careless living because careless living can ruin your life and destiny. The crux of the matter is, don’t kill yourself because you made a mistake in the past; don’t end your life because you messed up in the past. Determine to rise again.
Get this: it doesn’t matter how much you have messed up and missed it, you can still make it if you mean it; no matter how far you have gone in the wrong direction, a U-turn is possible. Don’t cry over spilt milk; don’t lament what you cannot amend. If it is not amendable, it is not lamentable. Rise up and move on!
My counsel is, apply for the mercy of God to wipe off your mess. Nothing mesmerizes your mess like the mercy of God. (Hebrews 4:16)
It is a new day for you, in Jesus’ Name.
REMEMBER THIS: It doesn’t matter how much you have messed up and missed it, you can still make it if you mean it; nothing mesmerizes your mess like His mercy.
