DON’T GIVE UP
Do you feel dead inside? Is the love you once enjoyed in your marriage smoldered and gone out? Are all the beautiful plans for your family life buried in the grave of hurts and disappointments? Nothing has worked out the way you wanted.
Please don’t give up hope. Read this powerful promise from Job 14:7-9: “For there is hope of tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease. Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground; yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.”
Do you feel that everything is cut away from you? Life is finished. Dear friend, there is hope. Even if the tree is dead, it can live again. All it needs is some water! In fact, this Scripture says that even the smell of water will awaken life. Read the Scripture again. Read it OUT LOUD!
Water your situation in prayer. Water your marriage in prayer. Cry out for the anointing of the Holy Spirit to come. Zechariah 4:6 says: “Not my might, not by power, but by my Spirit saith the LORD of hosts.” The living water of the Holy Spirit awakens life. Soak in the anointing of God’s Word and speak it into your situation.
As you continue to water your situation with prayer, the anointing of the Holy Spirit, and the power of the Word of God life will come. Your dead situation will sprout again. “For I will pour water upon him who is thirsty, And floods on the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit on your descendants, and my blessing on your offspring; they will spring up among the grass like willows by the watercourses” (Isaiah 44:3, 4). Read also Psalm 1:1-3.
Be encouraged.
