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 the 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

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;” 2 Cor 4:17

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

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.
