An open letter to those who lost so much this year
"And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed." (Joel 2:25-26)
Have you ever seen a worm eat through a leaf or fruit before? It's a magical sight: one minute you see the worm sitting quietly on the leaf, the next minute a hole begins to appear, that widens more as time goes by, the worm slowly, steadily, eating away.
Is there a part in your life that the cankerworm seems to have slowly eaten, leaving a gap you cannot account for? Have you lost some days, months, or even years that seem hard to regain?
Today, God is reminding you
" I WILL RESTORE "
What are we to do?
1. Acknowledge His Supremacy
2. Believe His Word
3. Lay the burdens at His feet
4. Claim His Promises in that area
5. Enter into His rest
6. Trust & obey
7. Choose to believe that everything will work together for your good.
You shall have a testimony in Jesus name.
