Everyday is the day the Lord has made…

Let's make one thing very clear... God is good and He does not do anything evil to make people want to serve Him. The reality of good and evil is called "life". The Christian life is one of mountains and valleys. Being “saved” doesn’t mean you never have adversity. It does give you the right and privilege to always win. Traditional teaching would tell you if things are going wrong then you must have either missed God or you have made a mistake in your holy life style and brought this conflict upon yourself. If we would redefine a few things it would help our attitude in life. Let’s stop calling them rewards and struggles… let’s look at them as ministry on two different levels. Our “mountain” experiences are when God ministers to us. The “valleys” are when we minister to others. We will do ourselves well to remember that mountain top experiences are for times of refreshing before going to the next level of ministry. Valleys are where we minister. David said it was in the valley that he saw more of God’s influence than anywhere else in his life. Thank God for the mountain tops but they only refresh you to minister and maintain the victorious attitude when you go through the valley. When you approach the day in this mindset it will cause anticipation of success everyday in that no matter what happens God is working in you and through you constantly
