Today’s Topic: Talk Back
Scripture: Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again—my Savior and my God! – Psalm 42:11, NLT
In Psalm 42, the psalmist was so deeply discouraged that he didn’t think he could go on. He says, “My heart is breaking.” He felt forsaken, as though he was wandering in the darkness. He adds, “I’m oppressed by my enemies. Their taunts pierce me like fatal wounds.” He kept describing how bad it was, how he wasn’t going to make it. When you let your feelings rule, you’ll start talking defeat and how it’s not going to work out. Right when you thought the psalmist was going to give up, he wrote today’s Scripture. He was talking to himself and saying, “Self, why are you discouraged and being ruled by your feelings? Put your hope back in the Lord. Start talking about how big your God is.”
You may feel sad and discouraged, you’ve been through some difficult things, but you have to talk back to your feelings. You can’t keep a depressed attitude, a discouraged countenance, and expect things to get better. Sometimes we’re waiting on God, but God is waiting on us to override what we feel and to believe what He says.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that You are my Savior and my God. Thank You that I can take my eyes off my circumstances and put a smile on my face and live a joy-filled life because I know You are in control. I declare that my eyes are fixed on You and Your Word and I will praise You again. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY’S INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: You may not see how this can happen. Your mind is telling you, “There’s no way. How could you get out of debt, how could you leave your family better, how could you accomplish your dream?” God is asking you what He asked Moses. Is there anything too hard for Me? You’re looking at it in the natural, but God has supernatural provision. One shift and you’ll go from no fish to a net-breaking blessing.
From playing with hair products, to a business exploding. From a two-million-dollar medical bill, to being debt free. What are you looking at: how big the lack, the debt, the struggle is, or how big your God is? Have a new perspective. “Let God be magnified, who takes pleasure in prospering me.” Get in agreement with God. Have an abundant mentality. He’s already lined up some net-breaking blessings.
