YOUR “Difficulties” Create “Platforms” for Jesus’s Miracles!
Life can often be a challenging journey, filled with unexpected trials and tribulations that seem insurmountable. At times, it might feel like the difficulties you face are too overwhelming to bear. But difficulities are only opportunities that create platforms for Jesus to display His power and create miracles in any mess that your life has handed you!
Life gives out lemons which are difficulities!
Difficulities such as health issues, financial troubles, strained relationships, or the myriad of personal challenges that life throws at us are perfect platforms for Jesus to show up and do something cause you need something! Instead of being bogged down by the drama of your life’s difficulities a better thing to do is to seek Jesus more so that Jesus can do more to help you overcome your difficulities!
Life Difficulties Create the Platform for Jesus’s Miracles in a number of ways including:
- Increased Dependency on God: Difficulties have a way of breaking down our self-reliance and forcing us to turn to a higher power. This dependence on God paves the way for His miraculous interventions, as it’s in our weakness that His strength is made perfect (2 Corinthians 12:9).
- Developing Faith: In the face of adversity, our faith can be tested and refined. The greater the challenge, the greater the opportunity for faith to grow. Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 17:20: “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move.”
- Receiving a Fresh Perspective: Difficulties often open our eyes to a new way of looking at life and its challenges. This fresh perspective can lead to innovative solutions and a deeper understanding of God’s purpose in our lives (Romans 8:28). The first thing to do is to pray repeatedly to Jesus and ask for His help and involvement in getting your difficulities fixed.
Then while you wait for Jesus to show up and do something or guide you to something, you should do the following;
- Have Patience and Perseverance: It’s important to be patient and persevere through your difficulties. Jesus may use your trials as opportunities to refine your character and develop resilience (James 1:2-4).
- Keep Praying and Seek Guidance: Pray earnestly and seek God’s guidance in your situation. He may direct your steps and reveal His plan for you (Proverbs 3:5-6).
- Look for Community and Support: Reach out to your Christian community, as they can be a source of strength and encouragement (Galatians 6:2).
- Surrender and Trust: Let go of your worries and surrender to God’s will. Trust in His timing, knowing that He has a purpose for your trials (Proverbs 16:9).
Jesus is very Attentive and Desires to Help:
It’s essential to understand that Jesus is always attentive to your distress. He knows your pain, your fears, and your needs. His desire to help is unwavering. As it is written in Isaiah 41:10, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” In those times when it feels as though you can’t take another step and when frustration and depression sets in, Jesus is right there with you nudging you to try again, pray again, reach again, trust Him for the help you need to make it to the other side of what you have been going through! YOU are not alone, Jesus is with you and wants to help!
In conclusion, dear friend, we encourage you to hold on to your faith, even in the face of adversity. Your difficulties are not in vain, and they serve as the perfect platforms for Jesus to work His miracles in your life. Trust in His love and wisdom, and know that His miraculous intervention is always just around the corner.
May you find strength and inspiration in these words, and may your journey be filled with the wonder of His miraculous works.
