God is turning your problems into blessings
When I first entered entrepreneurship, it was rough. I did not have a team to rely on and had to do everything myself. It used to feel overwhelming, but God brought me through that season.
These days, I am very grateful for those on my team who can help carry the load as God has expanded my ministry platform. They are committed, God-focused, and incredibly loyal. I know there are a lot of things I would not be able to accomplish if I had to do it all by myself.
That doesn’t mean that things go smoothly all the time and we never run into any challenges. There have been plenty situations that arose, despite having an incredible support team, that took more than human intellect, skills, and connections to fix.
On one such occasion, I woke up early in the morning to pray, and God dropped a powerful thought in my spirit. He said, “Your problems are your employees; they work for you.”
Isn’t that a good word?
Scripture backs this up. A popular verse, which happens to be one of my (and many others’) favorites, is Romans 8:28. It says, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
“God said, ‘Your problems are your employees. They have no choice but to work for you! He is causing all things to work together for your good.’”
When you love God and have a divine calling on your life, even if you don’t have staff members in the natural, your problems are your employees and have no choice but to work for you. Therefore, if you are in a season where you are dealing with a lot of problems, God is expanding and englarging you. That’s why He has allowed problems, or employees, to enter your space. They are there to accomplish His will in your life.
What seems to be working against you is working for you.
And know this, too: you are about to see the benefits problems have produced. Oh yes, my friend. Those benefits are going to show up in your finances. In your health. On your job. In your home. In your relationships. In your ministry. He’s turning your problems into blessings.
You will be blessed in the city and in the field, when you come and when you go (Deuteronomy 28:3-6).
Next time you feel like crying over the struggles and storms you face, recall and internalize the words of Genesis 50:20, which I am stirring into your cup of inspiration: “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good…"
As you drink down the contents of your cup, be assured that everything you’re going through right now is working for you! Not only that, but in the Kingdom of God, suffering is the means by which God perfects us, purifies us, and positions us to reap the rewards of perseverance. Be encouraged.
Let’s pray.
God, thank You for reminding me that all things are working for my good, and I need not worry about the problems. They are only ushering me into my purpose because Your hand is upon my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
