"A Set Up for a Comeback!"
Proverbs 24:16
New International Version
16 for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.
Life is full of things that try to push us down. We all face disappointments and setbacks. Maybe you received some bad news about your health, or perhaps a relationship didn't work out. That was a set back. It's easy to get discouraged or lose your enthusiasm or even be tempted to just settle where you are. But if we're going to see God's best we have to have a "bounce back" mentality. That means when you get knocked down, you don't stay down. You get back up again. You have to know that every time adversity comes against you, it's a set up for a comeback!
Remember, as a believer in Jesus, the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives on the inside of you. There is no challenge too difficult, no obstacle too high, no sickness, no disappointment, no person, nothing that can keep you from your God given destiny. If you stay in faith, God will turn what was meant to be a stumbling block into a stepping-stone, and you'll move forward in strength, full of faith and victory!
