Devotional
We all go through some things in life that’s messy and uncomfortable. We don’t like it. It seems that the moment we have decided to live a new life in Christ, that’s when the whole of messy things would begin to happen to us. But I tell you, if we will stay in faith, keep on trusting God, have a new perspective, it’s going to strengthen us. Though it may be messy, but it’s launching us into a new season of growth.
Key Scripture
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.1 Corinthians 16:13 NIV
Refreshing for the Day
In whatever predicament you find yourself, don’t let it steer the wheel of your life. That predicament, messy situation is like a manure. Manures stink a lot; it smells really bad. When it’s applied to the plants, the smell fills the place, one could hardly bear it. But if you come back in a month or two, the smell is gone and the plants are blooming. They’re blossoming. They’re seeing new growth. The manure, as bad as it smells, it’s giving the plants valuable nutrients and minerals that they could not get otherwise.
Beloved, in the same way, when we’re going through some messy and uncomfortable situations in life, it feels as if a heavy rock falls upon us; but if we will stay in faith, we will definitely sail through them all. Stay Lifted!

In whatever predicament you find yourself, don’t let it steer the wheel of your life.
