First God made the garden, then He made man and woman and placed them in the garden. This is called \u2018the law of location\u2019. Understand this: you will succeed when you are where God wants you to be. <\/p>\n
Have you ever experienced the pain of a dislocated joint? It\u2019s miserable. So is trying to \u2018do your own thing\u2019 instead of doing God\u2019s will. You can go the easy way or the hard way; God gives you that option. But eventually you\u2019ll go, or you\u2019ll go under. Jonah is an example of this\u2014he decided not to go to Nineveh and preach because he didn\u2019t like the people who lived there. Helping them was the last thing he wanted to do, so he decided to run from his God-given assignment in Nineveh. As a result he ran into a storm, caused misery and loss for everyone on board, and hit bottom before he finally got to where God wanted him to go. Learn from Jonah. Don\u2019t repeat his foolish, costly, and unnecessary mistake. <\/p>\n
God told Adam to \u2018be fruitful and multiply.\u2019<\/i> (Genesis 1:28 NKJV) Then He told him, \u2018You have to work at it.\u2019 When you get to the right place, don\u2019t expect your assignment to be easy or think you'll become successful overnight. American clergyman and author Phillips Brooks prayed, \u2018Lord, we ask You not for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.\u2019 <\/p>\n
When Paul prayed for relief, God told him, \u2018My grace is sufficient for you.\u2019 (2 Corinthians 12:9 NKJV) When you\u2019re in the right place, doing what God wants, you\u2019ll thrive in conditions others crumble under because you\u2019ll be \u2018graced\u2019 to handle it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
