SMALL POTATOES

Psalms 34:19 (KJV) Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. The longest cyclone ever recorded lasted thirty-six days. Paul encountered a storm called Euroclydon, where he found himself and others shipwrecked. Sometimes life is full of stormy weather and becomes too dangerous to sail. The variables that are easily controllable under normal conditions become uncontrollable. One thing is certain: the storm is trivial and insignificant (small potatoes) in comparison to what God has in store. This is the time to proclaim, “All things that are seen are temporal (brief and fleeting) and are subject to change!” Devote yourself to God in prayer and the Word, and He will appear like He did to Paul (Acts 27:22-25). Every trouble has an expiry date. It's not meant for you to expire but to reveal God’s glory. PRAYER FOR TODAY Lord, help me to remain unmoved by storms and troubling seasons. Anchor me in Your Word and strengthen me in prayer, knowing You will deliver me out of every affliction and reveal Your glory. PROPHETIC DECLARATION I am not moved by what I see; I am only moved by the Word of God. Hard times are small potatoes compared to the good times and lavish celebrations God has prepared for me this year. Hallelujah!
