I have been at a dead end in my life when my bank account kept getting smaller but my stack a bills kept getting taller. I was a single mother of two small children, looking for a job. I had been looking for two months. God promised me that He would supply all my needs but that stack of bills did not tell me the same thing. I continued to speak that all my bills are paid. I did not worry about the bills. I stayed focused on God and His promise.
Because I stayed focused on God He kept providing. The two months I was out of a job I did not skip a meal, my baby did not go without diapers or formula. We didn't have anything cut off, including cable. I would receive money on time from people that owed it to me. God opened doors from governemnt programs that granted me money. My rent was paid from people at my church. God had to provide for them in order to help me in my time of need. Because of my faith in His love, God opened the door for me to receive a job and for my babies to go to a great childcare center. I never went with out work since that time.
In that season of my life, I did not give up. I put my faith to work and believed God's promises. It took two months for my breakthrough but I did not quit. One month went by but I did not worry. I believed God's love for me and my children was real. He kept providing. The second month came, by faith I kept believing God. I did not walk around miserable and depressed. I continued to have joy and peace in Him. I did this by believing the "good report." Hebrews 11:1-2 KJV Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it (FAITH) the elders obtained A GOOD REPORT.
Operate in faith and you too will obtain a goo report. Don't give up.
