Take a piece of encouragement for yourself
Strength
Your waiting period maybe long & stressful, but just remember it is for the better! God might be telling you not right now or put your blessing on hold because you are not ready for it. So don’t be discouraged if you feel like you been waiting for too long, just keep trusting & putting your confidence in God. Because your blessings are about to be bigger than ever.
“Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him!” Isaiah 30:18 NIV
There are situations that you thought were going to break you and keep you down, but you came out even stronger by not giving up. After going through those difficult battles, you know now what you need to do to prevent going through them again. Those situations broke off an old and dead part of you, to where the new you don’t even condone it. You have a new focus now, nothing from the past can survive in this new vision! Stay focus & Keep moving forward. “
“And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.” 1 Peter 5:10 NIV
YOU GOT THIS!!! Always say to yourself “I got this.” Going through obstacles, “No worries, God got me, so I know I got this.” Starting to lose focus, “Alright, I cannot lose focus now, I got this.” Times are getting hard, “It’s okay, I’ll get through this. I got this.” You have to tell yourself this & believe in yourself! God do not put you through anything that you cannot handle.
“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper...” Isaiah 54:17 KJV
No matter what we have to continue to keep going. It’s so easy to give up, it really is, and it also seems like the best thing to do when you have been trying for so long. But everything will work out for our good when it is our time! That’s why we must keep trying and keep our faith! It’s coming, the waiting process doesn’t last forever.
“And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19
Right when you feel like everything isn’t worth it anymore is when you have to find the little motivation inside of you to keep going! Once you found that motivation inside of you is when your victory comes! A lot of times when you feel like giving up is when God is testing your faith to see if you are still trusting him.
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”Romans 8:28 NIV
Trusting in Yourself
You will be blessed! Your purpose will be fulfilled. Your prayers will be answered! BELIEVE IT! You cannot expect your blessings to overflow if you are always doubting and worrying. You have to trust and believe that God is working in your favor.
Always trust yourself in everything you are doing. Don’t be afraid when you come across difficulty in life or new obstacle. Because your trust is not in the obstacle to get you out, no the trust is in yourself. So, you have to remember the itself yourself that you have to believe & trust in no matter the situation.
Taking the step of trusting God’s plan & having faith that he will take you far in life can be the biggest step of your life. You will start seeing your life changing for the better.
1 To humans belong the plans of the heart, but from the LORD comes the proper answer of the tongue. 2 All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the LORD. 3 Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. (Proverbs 16:1-3 NIV)
You have to prove to yourself that you are capable of reaching your goals. No matter the obstacles that step in your way, you have to believe in yourself and strive to reach past your goals. Once you prove to yourself that you are capable of reaching the top, then other people’s thoughts and doubts won’t even affect you.
“If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.” John 15:19 NIV
Focus
Don’t let the distraction of your haters and critics get you off track. No matter how fed up you get, don’t seek for revenge. Remain focus & remember God is already handling them. Keep your self-control & let God handle it because in the end you’ll always get the last laugh, and they are the ones who going to regret for even coming for you!
“Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.” Romans 12:19 NIV
“Seeds of discouragement cannot take root in a grateful heart.”
It’s all about the matter of your perspective. There is someone out there who would love to trade positions with you. Life could be worse and because it is not, you should forever be grateful. So, be grateful for the opportunities and blessings you have in your life.
“give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 NIV
Joy and Happiness
We are doing things today that will make us happy & self-doubt will not stand in our way. So, go do something you been wanting to do for a while. Go get glamorous for yourself. Go workout for yourself. Just do it because self-doubt will not be an excuse for today! You can do this, believe it & you will achieve it.
“Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and it will be done.”Matthew 21:21 NIV
Your happiness is what you make it. You won’t be happy if you are always surrounded by negativity. Those negative vibes will bring you down, but it your job to turn that negative to a positive to protect your happiness. Even when you have negative thoughts it’s your job to block out those thoughts & think positive. Nobody should be in control of your happiness, so don’t let someone else negativity ruin your peace & happiness. Be Happy, Be Joyful, & Be Peaceful!
“But may the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful.” Psalm 68:3 NIV
Go after anything that brings you happiness or brings joy into your life. Go after that goal and dream you want to achieve. You can do it, but only if you go after it. Ask the questions that you need/want answers to or anything that you are curious about. You have to move forward to be able to grow. You can not stay in the same place forever because you will never see your next chapter for your life.
“As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it.” Genesis 9:7 NIV
You deserve peace. You deserve happiness. You deserve the blessings that are coming your way. Can’t nobody take away your happiness! You are going to live the happy life you deserve regardless of the obstacles that come your way, stay positive!
“I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live.” Ecclesiastes 3:12 NIV
