WHERE ARE YOU SITTING?

Ephesians 2:6 NLT For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.

Sitting in a garage doesn’t make us a car. Sitting in a church doesn’t make us a Christian. Sitting in a puddle of failed effort doesn’t make us a failure. So often when we fail, we give up, or think it’s not worth trying again, what’s the point? Thomas Edddison tried three thousand times before he managed to perfect the lightbulb and how glad we all are that he did!😊 It beats lighting candles!

So what have you tried lately and not done too well at? Have you branched out in faith and not seen quite the results you were hoping for yet? Well I’m here to tell you to try again, keep going, to not give up. Just because you failed at something doesn’t make you a failure. It just means you’re one step nearer to success and you know what not to do next time.😊

I used to do a lot of crafting and I discovered all the things I’m not very talented at, but I also discovered things I could do. If I hadn’t tried and persevered I would have missed out on so much.

Maybe the Lord has asked you to do something and you’ve tried but not done too well in your own eyes. Well, try again! Rome wasn’t built in a day, as they say, and we all improve when we practice. When God is in it, you have His anointing and His Holy Spirit to help you learn. Jesus trained His disciples to go out in pairs to heal the sick and cast out demons, but they had to practice!

So, just in case you’re sitting in a puddle of what you think of as failure, remember the enemy is a deceiver and a liar because you’re actually seated ‘in Christ’ in heavenly places. Is Christ a failure? Of course not, and neither are you!😊 So get up and keep doing what you’re called to do and let God make you into the success He ordained you to be. In Jesus name. Amen.
