Another new year is fast approaching and with that thought in my mind, my heart holds the emotions of many that have weathered many a storm this past year.
Myself included......
I have learned through my own storms what it means to truly apply God's words.....
There have been some storms it took a little longer than what most would have liked, but in the end I pressed in and pushed through....
I "applied"
No matter the storms we face in life, the sun is always behind the clouds.
No matter the battles we fight, our daddy God is always behind us taking charge for the victory ahead.
Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto you.
Isaiah 41:10
Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God: I will
strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right
hand of my righteousness.
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
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.
Nahum 1:7
The LORD [is] good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them
that trust in him.
I had to get to the place in my own life that speaking God's words was not enough...
I had to not only speak them, but APPLY them daily!!!
Sometimes it is easy to get so caught up in the storm, we quickly speak the word but we do not apply the word.
The old saying " If you are going to talk the talk you need to walk the walk" comes to mind.
Walking the walk is apply our daddy God's word in every situation.
I had to be reminded to apply over the last few months through out my storms.
And in the end, I have seen the sun behind the clouds.
I am standing in the belief that not only are my clouds moving on, but yours are too!!
I want to encourage you to not only speak but apply God's words in your every day life.
Confess His plan for your life regardless of what your circumstances are saying.....
Believe in the victory your daddy God has for you!!
There is sunshine behind the clouds.

2 Corinthians 12:9
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient
for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore
will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon
me.
