Beyond the present pain

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12: 2

Beloved, there is glory ahead of this present pain that you are going through. This shame shall turn to glory, be encouraged!

There is power in looking beyond the pain, the struggle and the challenge. It creates within a man the driving force to arrive at the glorious destination. Jesus went through the pain of the cross as a man in the flesh. The pain was real. But what kept Him through was the glorious expectation of the fulfilment of redemption of man.

“Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.” Luke 22:42-43

Beloved, beyond the pain of barrenness is the glorious manifestation of fruitfulness. Beyond the pain of poverty is the glorious manifestation of abundance. Beyond the pain of investment is the glorious manifestation of harvest. May your pain give way to gain in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: I receive the strength of the Lord to experience glory in my present situation in Jesus name.
