As an acclaimed believer, how do you see the challenges of the world? Are you of those who call it difficult? It is important to stop calling and seeing the challenges of the word as difficult. Are you born of God? Ones that claim to have been born of God but yet continue to call it difficult are actually seeking difficulties. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As one that is been born of God, confessing that living life is difficult is a wrong and a negative confession.<br \/>\nThe word encourages us, <\/span><b><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cKeep your heart with all diligence for out of it spring the issues of life.\u201d(Proverbs 4:23)<\/span><\/i><\/b><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> As a believer it is worthy to begin to see <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">life as not difficult. Life can be challenging, but one can always overcome the challenges of life if one chooses to go in the right way, not the way that seems right to one. There is a way to live life and to live it abundantly; there is a way to live life and to live it with challenges that will not overtake one.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">That way is for one to enter life by taking the right steps in deed and in truth. In gaining entrance into a life without difficulty, one will have to stay away from religion. Jesus said in <\/span><b><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cI am the door, if anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.\u201d(John 10:9)<\/span><\/i><\/b><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Jesus is true to His word by stating if anyone enters by Him. There is no race requirement or color qualification. Why not try and enter through Him? Jesus warned in <\/span><b><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">John 10:10, \u201cThe thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy, I have come that they may have it more abundantly.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> It is time to take a moment and begin to re-trace one\u2019s steps to see if one is born of God. Anyone that is born of God should prepare to overcome any challenge because He is fighting every challenging battle. Lift your eyes up unto Him today and ask Him for help. He is a compassionate God and He will have compassion on you. Remember, <\/span><b><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cMany are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.\u201d (Psalm 34:19)<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Prayer for today:<\/span><\/b><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ask for the word of God to have its place to reign and rule over your life. <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: The challenges of the world today are not enough to tag life as difficult. 1 John 5 It is written, \u201cFor whatever is born of God overcomes the world.
