A Word for Your Uncomfortable Season
Maybe today, you're standing in the middle of a fiery furnace of affliction—health failing, emotions flailing, finances faltering, relationships fraying, beneath a darkened sky that seems to be falling. Remember this: the Lord is with you in the discomfort, working for your good!
The Struggle is because You are Chosen
Nobody craves the furnace of public trials, the humiliation that trouble and tragedy can bring. Yet, in that very furnace, in the midst of the fire, God is at work. He is refining you, polishing you, preparing you to shine with a brilliance that reflects His glory. Your struggle is because you’re chosen!
This struggle is producing something good
Stuck in a hard space? God is sending you this message today to remind you that this fiery trial will not consume you, it will conform you into the image of Christ, refine you, and position you to bring God even greater glory. Something good is coming out of this.
Going through it? God will restore you
You may be going through now, but God will restore you back to a place of wholeness, equilibrium, prosperity, and joy. Though the journey is not easy and you may be feeling low, uncertain, and confused about this unfamiliar place of struggle, there is better on the other side of this! Be encouraged.
A supernatural valley visitation
In today’s encouragement, Dianna Hobbs confirms that you are never so low that God cannot reach you. Even when you find yourself deep in the valley, the Lord makes supernatural valley visitations and assures you that no matter where you are, victory is wherever He is. So, be encouraged.
You are anointed—even in bad times.
When you go through hardships and are commissioned to fulfill difficult assignments, it’s natural to feel frustrated, down, and discouraged. Despite how you feel, the truth remains that you are anointed for this test, called for this hour, and equipped to endure this season. Hang in there!
C'est la vie (That's life!)
We may get knocked down from time to time. C'est la vie. That’s life. But what we won’t do is stay down! We will rise again. And not only that, but we will also come back stronger, better, more blessed and favored than before. If you’re going through some troubles now, trouble don’t last always!
God is transforming your malady into a miracle
This encouraging word from Dianna Hobbs reminds you that God will turn the worst moments of your life into the greatest evidence of His power and favor at work in you. Oftentimes, whether it feels like it or not, the malady is just a setup for the miraculous!
This storm will not harm you!
God is sending you some encouragement today in the storm. He is saying, nothing and nobody will harm you. You have no reason to fear. God has given you power over the enemy. Power over the storm. Power over whatever comes against you. Be encouraged!
God is with you in the wreckage
Sometimes, storms rip through all of our lives, leaving us shattered and wrecked. But did you know that God is in the wreckage with you? That’s not all. At the appointed time, He will put the pieces of your life back together. Continue to hope in God. He will never leave you!
God is with you in the dark
Today, hear the voice of the Good Shepherd reminding you that He loves you; that He doesn’t want you to be afraid; that He wants you to be confident that He is walking with you in the darkest, deepest valleys; and that He will see to it that no weapon formed against you will prosper.
You can’t skip the process
It will rain in your life. You will have hard times. You will cry. There will be tragedy and trauma. All these things are unavoidable, and none of us gets to skip over the process of going through struggles. But God will work it out for your good, turn your mourning into dancing, and your tragedy into triumph!
You are a threat!
You are a threat to the kingdom of darkness but an asset to the Kingdom of God which is why Satan comes at you so hard. But know that in all these things, you are more than a conqueror through Christ, and no weapon formed against you will be able to prosper. Be encouraged!
When you don’t understand why…praise!
Hard and confusing times will come. That’s unavoidable. Disappointments will try to rob you of faith, snatch away your joy, and steal your song. But you don’t have to let disappointment and discouragement win. Keep on singing, pushing forward, trusting God, and expecting deliverance.
A biblical perspective on suffering
If you’re going through something right now, this is a word for you. God allowed it to happen. Therefore, even though the enemy meant it for evil, the Lord will cause it to turn out for your deliverance and work out for our good. So keep your head held high. God is indeed up to something good!
The storm can't stop your favor!
Your foundation is built upon Christ, and you are rooted and grounded in Him. Therefore, you don’t have to worry when the storm rages and the wind beats against your house. When your confidence is in God, your faith will remain intact, and the storm can’t stop your favor!
This attack is producing a blessing
Despite the attacks, challenges and hardship, keep smiling. Keep dancing. Keep praising. Keep rejoicing. Keep knowing beyond any doubt that this attack is producing a blessing. That’s the word God has for you today. If you can keep trusting Him through it, He’ll keep blessing you and causing you to rise above the adversity and emerge from the fiery furnace of affliction as pure gold!
Worship through the worst
Keep a praise on your lips and a song in your heart no matter how rough the road. When you worship through the worst, God honors that. He will lift you up from your low place and prove Himself faithful once again. By His power, He’ll turn things around in your favor if you keep the faith, and don’t give up.
This affliction is working for you
You may be uncomfortable in your affliction, God is taking what the enemy used to destroy you and blessing you, multiplying you, increasing you, strengthening you, elevating you, and favoring you instead. After this is over, you will realize that God was up to something amazing the whole time!
Feelings change; God’s word doesn’t
Remember, circumstances change, but God doesn’t. He is the same today, yesterday, and forever. He is good all the time. He is faithful every day. His mercies are new every morning. And feelings – though they are fickle and can contradict the word – can never change that truth.
