Whatever You Do, Don’t Give Up!
It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God. Have you ever wanted to walk away from everything and everyone? You were tired of feeling the way you felt. Have you ever wanted to turn and walk away from years of hard-work? It seems as though no one really appreciates your dedication. Have you ever felt misunderstood or prejudged by society? No matter what you do or say, someone takes it the wrong way. Have you ever experienced discouragement because of a negative doctor’s report or financial statement? Just when you thought things were getting better, everything came unscrewed. Has your ministry ever endured lies and rumors? Have you been there?

There is a light at the end of the tunnel. God has not forsaken you. Do not quit on the plans of God for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). You must learn to encourage (minister) yourself in the Lord (1 Samuel 30:6). You have to speak life to any dead situations in your life (Proverbs 18:21). The Bible declares in Ephesians 6:13-14 - Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, …
