*WHY TIMES ARE HARD*
JOB 41:11
*“Who has first given me that I should repay him? Whatever is under the whole heaven is Mine.”*
God is not going to give you what He is not going to be in need of.
He is in need of it, that’s why He gave you it to you on trust.
When your mindset about receiving from The Lord is wrong, you stop the flow of the blessings through you
Because God’s thought is towards all that He made, He needs you as a channel and not as an end.
Only God is the beginning and the end.
Most of the time, when you hear people give testimony of the blessings of God, you wonder why there seems to be no continuation of such.
God doesn’t begin anything that He won’t continue till the end. It is we humans who stop the flow.
It is either we stop allowing the blessings to flow through us or we allow the blessings to flow to where God doesn’t designate.
The widow in the Bible kept on pouring 🫗 the oil into another vessel, and the oil kept on flowing until the empty vessels finished.
In Psalm 33:11, *the Bible reveals that:*
“The counsel of the LORD standeth forever, *the thoughts of his heart to all generations.”*
God’s thoughts are higher than yours. His thoughts do not end with you. You are one of the channels to another generation.
Whatever(mercy, favor, abundance, money, love, forgiveness, children, helps, grace, life, etc ) must link up with one another as pipes are connected one to another until they brings water 💧to your house 🏠.
If you disconnect yourself, it stops flowing to you, and it stops flowing through you to others.
When God is thinking about you, He is thinking about all.
The Bible revealed why the time we live in will be difficult.
The number one reason is that everyone will stop thinking beyond self.
2 Timothy 3:1-2
“But realize this, *that in the last days difficult times will come. For people will be lovers of self,* lovers of money, boastful…”
When God blesses someone, and he or she sat down with the list of items to buy, how many will add on the list what to give to someone who is hungry.
*When the money finishes, the person starts crying 😭 to God for another.*
You would rather give to a friend who would probably give you back.
God has not changed. Let’s stop deceiving ourselves. God doesn’t change His plan because of a nation’s economy.
*Hard times should make grace abound.* If we don’t allow the grace flow through us, our land will be dry and hard.
*I challenge you today to break up your fallow ground by sowing to yourself in righteousness so may reap in mercy.*
He says in His word, *”I AM THE LORD, I CHANGE NOT.”*
Change your ways for God has not changed. He is the same yesterday, just as He has always been.
I hope this blesses someone. Stay lifted.
