God's Word Says.....
We all stumble in many ways....... (NLT) James 3:2
For though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity. (NLT) Proverbs 24:16
Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him. Lamentations 3:22-24
Important for you to know.....
- God's love and grace are bigger than your failure!
- God is a God of second chances! (Heb. 15-16)
- Your failure is not who you are!
- The Greater One helps you when you fall!
- There is NOTHING that the enemy can throw against you that's bigger than God on the inside of you!
- God is in the "recovery" business!
- You never fail until you refuse to try again!
When we fail....
How do you look at a failure or mistakes in your life? Do you look at it through your past or present circumstances? The good news is....God sees beyond your failures! God knows that we are not perfect. But He still loves us! His love for us is not based on our performance record! God knew that we would fail, but we are not failures and He still loves us!
God has breathed potential in each of us. He has a plan for every life and a future that is full of hope! When we fail, we tend to think that we cannot recover. But there is a God that is BIGGER than our failures who is in the recovery business. Whatever you put your hands to, God wants you to prosper!
Being Successful.....
Society puts great pressure on people to be successful in life.....in fact, many times it becomes a driving force in our lives. Real success in life is simple....it is being faithful to what God has called you to do! A successful person may fall, but they get back up again....and again.....and again....and again...etc. Just because you fail, doesn't make you a failure! God has placed POTENTIAL on the inside of each of us! POTENTIAL, His ability in our lives! We need to be preparing for life, and not pretending in life. You can deal with failures in life! You can get back up again because "you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!" He loves you....in fact, He will NEVER fall out of love with you! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!
Joyce Meyer says...."every set-back is a set-up for a come-back!"
