DAY 233:

“

“Paul was able to keep going no matter what persecution he faced, because his assurance was not in himself, it was in God! He knew without a doubt that God would surely be with him and that He would always make a way!

‘We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed,’ (2 Corinthians 4:8-9).

It is equally important for you today to understand that no matter what comes your way, fair or unfair, God is with you and He will give you strength to endure and to not be destroyed. You must also remember how important it is to not rely on your own strength or your own wisdom. You must realize and accept the people that God has sent to help you along your journey and in your process.

Remember Jesus sent the disciples out two by two. He didn’t send them alone. It is important to have people around you that understand your assignment and calling and support you through the trials instead of telling you to avoid them.. Don’t give up or give in.. trouble, perplexity, and persecution will come… but with God, you won’t be destroyed..!”
