“...But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and
straining toward what is ahead”
(Phillipians 3:13, NIV)
Are you down on yourself today because of past mistakes
you’ve made or because you’re not where you want to be in life? God knows every
poor choice, every difficulty, every wrong turn you may have made, and He’s
already planned your comeback! In scripture, Jonah took a detour, so to speak.
It took him a little bit longer, but because he called out to God, because he
believed, God not only rescued him, but God got him to his final destination.
Friend, know today that failure is not final. God always has
the final say. Mistakes don’t have to keep you from your destiny. God’s plan
can override every setback. Your world may be in turmoil today in a
relationship, in your finances or health. But know this: not only will God rescue
you; He will set your feet on a rock and lead you to your final destination in
life. Remember, the promise He placed on the inside of you didn’t go away
because you had some personal failures. No, that failure is only temporary but
His Word remains forever! Keep hoping; keep believing because He will move you
into the blessing and victory He has prepared for you!
