Bad Days
Welcome! I pray that the holy spirit gives me the right words to say so that you’re blessed by this. In Jesus Name. Amen
Let’s talk about those “Bad days”. Have you ever had what feels to be the worst day ever? Even the days that you actually try to start off well. Like you made the bed, ate breakfast, even finished that weeklong to-do list and it STILL goes bad. I have had plenty of those days and it’s just some days no matter what you do, it’s just not going to end happily.
Usually when I’m in the middle of what I think is a “bad day” my mind instantly starts to think, why. Why is this happening to me. In John 10:10 KJV it says the thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. And yes, that includes your happiness. It also says it in 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” So the enemy is already looking to intervene in our lives every single day. He wants to create chaos in our days.
You’re also going to go through trials and tribulations. In Ephesians 3:13 it calls tribulations your glory. These things can test your faith, build character, and ultimately fulfill Gods plans. Its so hard to think like this in the moment but you need to always try. This is one of the reasons God says lean not on thy own understanding (Proverbs 3:5) because we don’t understand everything he does.
Another thing, I believe that God doesn’t just give us things that we ask for but the opportunity to get things we ask for. For example, let’s say you pray for patience because your short tempered. Well God isn’t going to zap you and BAM your patience pam. What if God sent the rudest customer into your workplace so you could choose patience. So that you could learn how to be patience. Of course, it wouldn’t be the highlight of the day but gaining patience given through an opportunity from God would be so rewarding.
The key to days like this is remembering one thing. God is always with you. Good or bad days your heavenly father Is right there. God had one of the worst couple of days you couldn’t even imagine. They talked about him, betrayed him, crucified him. He was killed in front of thousands for US and our sins. God’s tough love is exactly what we need sometimes. Any time that you feel the enemy creeping up into your day; Rebuke him! Bind those spirits up and cast them out! Keep your faith, remain grateful, those bad days aren’t for nothing. God has a plan for you! Jeremiah 29:11 NIV For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Peace, love, and prayers I can’t wait to talk with you next time.
