My prayer for you today is that you will be grateful and content with what you have. My prayer is not that you be like the Jones’ and have what they have but that you will be yourself and be content with what you have and who you are. I pray that you will not be covetous and be competitive with friends or neighbours but that you will be happy and content no matter how small your belongings or worth in life. It is not what you have that makes you who you are it is who you are that determines how far you get in life. Life is not dictated by your friends or neighbours, life is what you make it. Quit looking at others and be content with what you have. Quit wanting to be someone else other than who God has created you to be. Lack of contentment leads to dissatisfaction, greed and covetousness.1 Timothy 6:6 says Godliness with contentment is great gain and Proverbs 23:18 says your expectation shall not be cut off.
As you become content with what you have and who you are, God will bless and increase you, He will meet you at your point of need and your expectation shall not be cut off in Jesus Name. May God open unto you the windows of heaven’s blessings and pour you out a blessing that you will not have room enough to contain it, may doors of opportunities open for you and may men pour into your bosom, good measure pressed down, shaken together and running over. Most of all I pray that you will appreciate that your heavenly Father knows what your needs are, He knows what your heart’s cries are and He hears you and is willing to answer. Give Him thanks today and everyday as you present your needs before Him because He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that you can expect or think and He will do it for you.
May God bless you today and always.
