What do you do when you face difficulties? Answers to this might vary, some may reply:
‘I go hard, I do not back down from problems.’ Others might say: ‘I freeze up, I don’t know how to deal with problems.’
No matter what the answer is, or the reaction, we can all agree that everyone faces problems and we can never avoid them. Some are harder than others, but no matter what, a problem is a problem!
I have a secret to reveal to you today: stop paying attention to the problem! Yes, you heard me right. Instead, you should focus on the answer and keep going to achieve it.
Problems have existed since the Bible days and we will continue to face them while we live in the world. Take a look at this example, Paul experienced this situation:
For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
(1 Corinthians 16:9)
The door was opened (the blessing) but there were adversaries (problems, delays…) but he never gave up, he kept going.
This is the greatest reaction to problems, don’t stop, keep going, believe that the doors are already open and you need to just go through them. Do not delay the blessing that awaits you, go ahead and take it, you are the Paul of today!
May the God of the Bible bless you!
Bishop Bira Joshua
