What Of My Work? A Broken Heart

WHAT OF MY WORK?… A BROKEN HEART CAN CLEAR UP OUR VISION.

By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) (Several part lesson.)

Psalm 66:10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

We are working under the premise: SOMETIMES THE WORSE THING THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN TO YOU CAN BRING ABOUT THE BEST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN. Will we trust this battle, this struggle, this hard trial, this broken heart can give birth to new faith and a new hope. Do I believe God can make good come out of this mess? WE ABSOLUTELY TRUST THAT GOD TAKES WHAT OUR ENEMY MEANT TO BRING HARM TO US AND WORK A MIRACLE.

Why? Why God? Why did you allow this rejection to hurt me so bad? Why? Why all this pain and hurt? God will you allow this to destroy me? Why do I have to face this problem? What the enemy meant for harm --- can bring miracles and new directions. My friend, do we understand our FAITH WILL BE TESTED? This crushing might be GOD’S PLAN TO GROW MORE AND LEARN TO DEPEND ON GOD. I have learned several truths in my 71 years. God reveals himself and his powers to draw us closer. How can I tell about healing unless I have been sick? How can I reach people unless I have experienced suffering, hurt and disappointments both in others and in ourselves? THE SAME ISSUES THAT CAN DIVIDE AND DESTROY FAMILIES COULD BRING US TOGETHER. IT IS ALL ABOUT OUR ATTITUDES AND HOW WE HANDLE NEGATIVE PROBLEMS. This is an opportunity to become bitter or better. This is not up to God… THIS IS UP TO YOU. Each hardship we face can be an opportunity to RELEASE A MIRACLE.

Proverbs 17:3 The firing pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.

HAVE WE EVER CONSIDERED HURT, TRIALS AND SUFFERING IN REAL LIFE… IN THE FAMILY, IN THE CHURCH AND AT WORK… THESE THINGS MAY BE NECESSARY TO GET US WHERE GOD WANTS US. LET US BE REAL, SUFFERING IS A PERSISTENT THEME OF THE BIBLE. TRIALS WILL ALWAYS TEST OUR FAITH.

1 Corinthians 9:24. Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. 25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

TAKE A DEEP BREATH MY FRIEND… THESE HARDSHIPS AND TRIALS THAT WE ARE FACING COULD BE A TEST. WE ARE JUST IN A BAD SEASON… THIS DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A BAD LIFE.

2 Chronicles 15:7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.

2 Chronicles 15:7 (MSG) "But it's different with you: Be strong. Take heart. Payday is coming!"

WE ARE WALKING IN SEASONS, HARD SEASONS THAT CAN DIM OUR VISION. WE MUST NOT ALLOW DIFFICULT DAYS TO CAUSE US TO FORGET HOW BLESSED WE REALLY ARE. HOW ABOUT DECLARING: I AM TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED?

We must not give up. God loves us so much he gave his only son. There is a plan and a purpose. This hurt and struggle could take you to the grave… IF YOU GIVE UP!

Psalm 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

CAN THESE CONFLICTS AND PROBLEMS I FACE BE PART OF GOD’S PLANS FOR ME?

LIFE IS A TEST! PROBLEMS AND TRIALS ARE PART OF DAILY LIVING --- LEARN TO ENJOY LIVING WHILE LOOKING FOR THE PLAN FOR CONFLICT RESOLUTION. GOD HELP US TO KNOW: WITH YOUR HELP WE CAN SOLVE EVERY PROBLEM!

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Today we might not understand how and where this piece of the puzzle is going to fit. But as the puzzle comes together, the picture becomes clearer. We will understand the BIGGER PICTURE. I am thinking I just don’t understand what is happening. May I suggest just take a deep breath and close your eyes. Then tell your heart: GOD I TRUST YOU AND I KNOW GOD YOU HAVE A PURPOSE. God please help me to BY FAITH TRUST YOUR PLAN.

OFTEN HURT AND DISAPPOINTMENTS BUILD DAMS THAT HINDER GOD’S PLAN. GOD TEACH ME THAT I MUST FORGIVE TO GAIN FORGIVENESS.

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
