TOPIC: The Strenght To Deal With Change
SCRIPTURE: The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the [consistently] righteous man [upright and in right standing with God] runs into it and is safe, high [above evil] and strong. – Proverbs 18:10 (AMPC)
Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional May 20, 2022 MESSAGE
Many people don’t like change. Former U.S. President Woodrow Wilson said, “If you want to make enemies, try to change something.” Often when we grow weary or simply become bored with a situation, we get restless and begin to pray:
“Oh, God! Something has to change!” Then, when God tries to bring change into our lives, we say, “Lord, what are You doing? I don’t think I can take this change!” We often find ourselves caught in the tension between wanting change and fearing change.
Thank God, He never changes. Because He is always the same, we can trust Him
through any changing circumstances or situation (see Hebrews 13:8, Malachi 3:6).
This should give us great courage and comfort when we face changes in our lives. We do not need to fear change; we can handle it, because God remains the same.
PRAYER STARTER: Father, I am so thankful that I don’t have to fear change. You never
change and You are my strong tower. I stand on the firm foundation of Your Word, and I will live in peace, even when things are changing all around me.
