October 14 Devotion- Transforming failure to Success

 

Wealth and riches are in His house; and His righteousness endures forever. Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. Blessings and prosperity will be yours.

رغد وغنى في بيته وبره قائم الى الابد‏.

 واثقا بهذا عينه ان الذي ابتدأ فيكم عملا صالحا يكمل الى يوم يسوع المسيح.

طوباك وخير لك.

Psalm 112:3, Philippians 1:6, Psalm 128:2

 

 “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” That approach is taught all over the world. As Christians, we tend to integrate this attitude into our walk with Christ. If we fail to conquer certain ‘bad’ habits, or disobey key Scripture verses, many of us keep trying on our own strength to do the right thing. Although perseverance is necessary, determination alone will not cure our problems.

We need to admit our failure and realize that we can do nothing apart from the support and strength of The Holy Spirit. Failure can be a catalyst that converts our methods from trying to trusting.

 

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, I pray that You strengthen me to make the transition from trying on my own to trusting in Your power. Lord I know and I am confident that if You set me on a direction or path You will complete it in spite of the trials and snares that are in my way; and that blessings and prosperity will be mine because Your house is full of riches; and Your righteousness endures forever. Lord, I know that without The Holy Spirit acting on my behalf I cannot accomplish Your will. Thank You Lord for Your deep and everlasting love for me, Your abundant blessings, and for the riches of Your grace in my life. God I pray to You in the name of Your precious Son; my Redeemer and Saviour; the Lord of my life, Jesus Christ. To Jesus be the power, the glory, the majesty, the blessings, and the dominion before all time and now and forevermore. Amen.

Jesus loves you,

In Him,

Wagdi Henein
