David was a giant killer, a psalm writer, and Israel\u2019s most popular king. But when the stresses of life brought him to his breaking point, he wrote, \u2018I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.\u2019 <\/p>\n
Are you at your breaking point today? When you get to that place, one of two things happens: you either break down<\/i> or break through!<\/i> It all depends on what you do. David experienced a breakthrough because he knew the right formula: \u2018Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart.\u2019<\/i> (Psalm 27:14 NKJV) <\/p>\n
There\u2019s an old saying\u2014\u2018The same sun that melts the butter hardens the clay.\u2019 When trouble comes, you can turn against<\/i> God because you\u2019ve served Him faithfully and don\u2019t understand why He\u2019s permitting you to go through such a hard time, or you can turn to Him for the answer! Nothing catches Him off guard, and nothing is too hard for Him. <\/p>\n
He said, \u2018I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, \u201cMy counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.\u201d\u2019<\/i> (Isaiah 46:9\u201310 NKJV) You may be in a state of shock right now\u2014but God isn\u2019t. Your circumstances can actually become a platform for Him to demonstrate His unfailing love and care for you. So don\u2019t lose heart; He\u2019s going to bring you through this storm and bring glory to His name in the process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
