Great men and women God uses are not taken from cushions of comfort, but from fires of discomfort.
1 Samuel 23:14
[14]David remained in the wilderness strongholds in the hill country of the Wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hands.

*GENERALS OF FAITH*... The list is on even today, and how I desire that I be one of them!

Hebrews 11:39-40Hebrews 11:32
[32]And what shall I say further? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets,
[39]And all of these, though they won divine approval by [means of] their faith, did not receive the fulfillment of what was promised,
[40]Because God had us in mind and had something better and greater in view for us, so that they [these heroes and heroines of faith] should not come to perfection apart from us [before we could join them].

Every great man was once small, every standing man was once fallen and broken. One will never understand the grace of being great unless God allows them to witness their humble and small state. God will make us see our fallen state, not to discourage us but to make us understand that He is the power behind our standing.

Every great man was once small, every standing man was once fallen and broken. One will never understand the grace of being great unless God allows them to witness their fallen state. So God will make us see our falls, not to discourage us but to make us understand that He is our power of standing.

He is God!
Not only is He able to open doors for you, He can make you pass through closed, stubborn, locked and secured doors. He doesn't need to quench the fire for your rescue, He can allow you to be in the midst of the raging flames, yet bring you out unharmed.

Proverbs 4:7
[7]The beginning of Wisdom is: get Wisdom (skillful and godly Wisdom)! [For skillful and godly Wisdom is the principal thing.] And with all you have gotten, get understanding (discernment, comprehension, and interpretation). [James 1:5.]

2 Timothy 2:15
[15]Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.

Jeremiah 18:2-6
[2]Arise and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear My words.
[3]Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was working at the wheel.
[4]And the vessel that he was making from clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he made it over, reworking it into another vessel as it seemed good to the potter to make it.
[5]Then the word of the Lord came to me:
[6]O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter does? says the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand, O house of Israel.

"The vessel was spoiled in the hand of the potter; so he made it over, reworking it into another vessel as it seemed good to the potter to make it.. "
💫Being marred or spoiled in the potter's hands is one best posture... Though you look destroyed and useless, it is His process of reworking you for better use!
Allow the broken state, allow all the pressure, allow even being disfigured. You can never be a better version of yourself unless you go through that process.

💫The potter knows the best version of you which is suitable for His use and purpose, suitable for His will, the best will for you. Don't journey the second half of the year an old version, or a self imposed version, or a people designed version. You have a maker, humble yourself in His hands as clay, endure the molding wheel, and come out as He desires...

💫Pray for stillness as God reworks you. Don't pop out of the frying pan before done. A loaf of barley bread that the enemy saw symbolizing Gideon had endured all the processes... And in the dream it was tumbling down tents of the enemy, yet remaining intact. Love the process, and be perfected and polished for the July to December journey.

AS YOU ENTER THE GATES OF JULY

Psalm 100:4
[4]Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and a thank offering and into His courts with praise! Be thankful and say so to Him, bless and affectionately praise His name!

💫Enter with praise to the Lord who shall give you victory upon the seen and unseen battles! (Psalms 144:1)

💫Enter with confidence, for greater is He who is in you than the one that may stand against you in the month. (1 John 4:4)

💫Stand at the gates with authority, for God has assigned you a watchman! You cannot oversee what you do not own! ( Ezekiel 3:17)

💫Declare to July that "I'm not alone!" ...
Jehovha Emmanuel is forever with you, and moreover He dispatched & has assigned angels to minister in your life with great speed and might that is unmatched! The angels will carry you on paths where human ability fails!!
(Hebrews 12:22)

Give warmth, give your heart and revive hope to some cold soul.
