Today’s Scripture: "Ask the LORD for rain in the time of the latter rain..."
(Zechariah 10:1, NKJV)

Ask for Rain

We all face disappointments and setbacks. Life is full of things that try to push us down. Maybe you got bad news concerning your health. A relationship didn't work out. Maybe you lost your job. It was a setback. When we face setbacks, it's easy to get discouraged or lose our enthusiasm. Too often, we are tempted to just settle where we are. But if we're going to see God's best, we have to have a bounce-back mentality. That means when you get knocked down, you don't stay down. You get back up again. It means when disappointments come, you shake them off knowing that what the enemy meant for your harm, God is going to turn around and use for your good.

When you're a bounce-back person, you know that adversity is not permanent. Weeping may endure for a night, but you know joy is coming in the morning. There is wonderful joy ahead on the other side of this trial. Keep standing, keep believing, and choose to be a bounce-back person because you are coming out better off than you were before! You are rising higher, and you will fulfill the destiny God has in store for you!

A Prayer for Today: "Father in heaven, thank You for Your grace, mercy and favor. I ask for rain in the time of rain. I ask for increase in Your favor and blessing so I can be a blessing to those around me today and always in Jesus' name. Amen."

Joel Osteen
