Anchor of the Soul from Refreshing Hope Ministries on Vimeo. When people lose hope, they lie down and die. They lose the will to live and fight any longer. Hopelessness is utter despair, the belief that nothing good will happen. When you begin to think like this, it will bring a desire to die. A ... -
The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why don't your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?" He answered them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors me with their lips, But their heart is far f...

Rags to Riches

Then the king gave Daniel high honors and many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon and chief prefect over all the wise men of Babylon. Dan. 2:48 ESV
Daniel was born in the royal family, but he was taken prisoner when Nebuchadnezzar captured Jerusalem in 597 B.C. Then Daniel was taken from his homeland and made a eunuch. He became a servant in Babylon against his will. It wasn't the happiest of starts, but in due time, God raised him up to be second-in-command. He became the wisest man in Babylon.
Joseph was born as his father's favorite son, but was then sold into slavery by his brothers and served time in prison before he was promoted to second-in-command by Pharaoh. Moses was raised and educated in Pharaoh's royal family, then spent forty years tending sheep in the wilderness before he became the most powerful man living on earth. David was anointed by Samuel, but then he had to run from Saul for years before he actually became the king.
God has a plan for you, but before it comes to pass, there is a time of proving, pruning, and maturing. To us, it often looks like just plain waiting. Do not get discouraged while you are in the wilderness. God is completely faithful, and the things that He has spoken to you, He will bring to pass. You cannot have a rags to riches story, without spending time in the rags.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I wait on You. I thank You so much for all that You are doing in my life and I know that You will guide me down the best possible path. Please have Your way in my life, in the name of Jesus I pray. Amen!
