DEFEATING DISCOURAGEMENT

In the time of discouragement what motivates you? For me… Reading or listening to the motivational speakers about how people come out as a champion in a tough situation

In the time of discouragement what makes you happy? For me.. giving people hope when they think that all Hòpe is lost, by speaking or by action, like taking care of their needs

In your time of discouragement, what is your favorite Scripture? For me… Joshua 1. Instruction was given to Joshua, and after all God told him “BE DETERMINED”

It is very important to know yourself in this areas of life and if you can answer this question very well. You are unstoppable.

In answering this question, you have to be real about yourself because what motivates and makes me happy might not be what motivate and makes another happy

A young man said, “the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want Psalm 23:1.

A middle age woman said, “God is my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1.

Another woman said, In this world you shall have tribulations, but be of good cheer, I have overcome this world. John 16:33-35.

Then old Mr. Onyeama who was 80 years old, with head of white hair and dark black skin, stood up and said with as much strength as he could muster, “and it came to pass 85 times in the Bible.

People started to laugh a little thinking that old Mr. Onyeama lack of memory was getting the best of him.

When the snickering stopped, he said. At 30 I lost my job with six hungry mouths and a wife to feed. I didn’t know how I would make it. At 40 my eldest son was killed overseas in the war.

It knocked me down. At 50 my house burned to the ground. Nothing was saved out of the house. At 60 my wife of 40 years got cancer.

It slowly ate away at her. We cried together many a night on our knees in prayer. At 65 she died. I still miss her today. The agony I went through in each of these situations was unbelievable.

I wondered where God was. But each time I looked in the Bible I saw one of those 85 verses that said, ‘and it came to pass. I felt that God was telling me, my pain and my circumstances were also going to pass and that God would get me through it.

Let me ask you this… Are you also in a worst situation in life and you’re feeling helpless? The good news is, if you will fill your mind and heart with God’s Word, you’ll always be reminded that you have a God that will rescue you.

No matter how big your problem is. Take a moment right now and choose a memory verse” that you can meditate whenever you’re in a time of discouragement. You’ll be surprised how this one or two memory verses can give you peace, joy, and assurance of victory.

And as you digging in the scriptural aspect of it, give yourself a chance to go to the game you cherish and dance the music that you love. Create your own happiness and by so doing, you will get out of discouragement
