Joyce Meyer Devotional 16 August 2019 – Reach Your Full Potential
Topic: Reach Your Full Potential
Scripture: We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair — 2 Corinthians 4:8 (NIV)
Message: I fully believe that reaching your potential is linked to the way you handle adversity. Adversity isn’t always bad. Actually, adversity can be something to be thankful for because God can use it to strengthen you. Winston Churchill said, “Difficulties mastered are opportunities won,” and I wholeheartedly agree.
Joyce Meyer Devotional 16 August 2019 – Reach Your Full Potential
If you allow difficulties and challenges to frustrate, intimidate, or discourage you, you will never overcome them. But if you face them head-on and press through the adversities you encounter, refusing to give up in the midst of them and move forward with a heart of gratitude, you will develop the skills and determination needed to be everything you were created to be and experience everything God intends for you.
Prayer Starter: I thank You, Father, that I don’t have to give up when I face adversity—I can meet it head-on, knowing that You are always with me. Thank You for Your promise that says, …He who is in you is greater than he (Satan) who is in the world…(1 John 4:4 AMP). In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
