FAILED AGAIN?

Micah 7:8 “For though I fall, I will rise again. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord Himself will be my light.”

Are you “down and out”, “under the circumstances”, or have you failed again? I don’t believe that there are any people who have never failed. Failure is a part of the fallen world we live in and it happens when we operate in our own abilities according to the Prophet Jeremiah. Jeremiah 17:5 “Thus says the LORD; Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from the LORD.” \

When we stop and think about the many times we’ve failed, it seems a shame to allow all those moments go to waste. Bob Gass suggests that we should treat failure as a “moment, not a monument!” Don’t spend the rest of your life paying homage to the failure. It’s been said that failure is not an event; it’s an opinion! Everyone fears failure. But breakthroughs depend on it. The best companies, athletes, scientists and inventors in the world embrace their mistakes and learn from them.

It is only when you accept your failure as a failure, that you finally become a failure! Baseball legend Babe Ruth hit 714 home runs in his career. He also struck out 1330 times! When asked by the media how he overcame discouragement he was quoted as saying, “I just keep swinging the bat…”

Thomas Edison conducted 50,000 experiments in his search for natural rubber. When his assistant said to him, “All those experiments and not one success,” Edison is said to have replied, “No results! We’ve had wonderful results! We now know 50,000 things that won’t work, soon we’ll find the one that does.” He did!

Henry Ford neglected to put a reverse gear in his first car. He said that “Failure is only a necessary step to success.” If Abraham could start out as an idol worshiper and finish up as the “friend of God,” then there’s hope for all of us! David said in Psalm 44:5 “Through You we will push back our enemies.”

If you are discouraged right now, reread the inaugural Scripture. Micah 7:8 “For though I fall, I will rise again. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord Himself will be my light.” The same God who spoke to Paul, “My strength is made perfect in your weakness,” (2 Corinthians 12:9) is about to turn your failure into Victory! Put Him first today (Matthew 6:33) and He will supply all you need. Draw near to Him. Spend some time with Him and He will meet with you. (James 4:8)

I assure you when you leave His Presence, you will be reinvigorated and refreshed; Acts 3:19) ready to take on the world and snatch your Victory from the jaws of defeat!

HE IS WAITING ON YOU! Wow did I need to hear this!
