Topic: The Inspector General and The University Of Life [Tuesday 12 September, 2017]
(Mark 14:66-72; Acts 1:18)
Welcome to anotyher devotional hour with the God that fetches water with basket to disgrace the bucket. Please refer to yesterday’s devotional. A jailed former Inspector General Of Police of the Nigeria police shocked the entireworld when he admitted that he was guilty as charged and proclaimed: “I will bounce back.” God wants you to know that optimism is the faith that leads to achievement (Helen Keller). “I WILL BOUNCE BACK” is all I remember about this man no matter his faults. Whether he bounces back or not is not the issue! The issue is that in any thick darkness, a ray of light is a testimony!
God desires that you never call it quits till you you die concerning any issue! The French Mathematician and Philosopher, Blaise Pascal, wrote in his notes: “The past and present are our means, while our one and only future, is the end.” Since 2017 began, even even if it has been rough, note that you still have a wonderful future. The meaning of life is rarely interpreted at the beginning! Life unfolds and gets beautiful only when you don’t quit. Determine to run your race until you cross the finishing line. I have never seen a great star that was never down at a stage! The ability to bounce back was the difference between Peter and Judas!
Listen to the uncommon admonition of Philip Adams: “Unless you are willing to let go, to fail miserably and have another go, success won’t happen.” Michael Jordan reminds us again: “I can accept failure. Everyone fails at something. But I cannot accept not trying again.” Peter bounced back from failure; Judas buried himself in failure! Keep saying to yourself: “I will bounce back. I will be back! It’s not over for me. The God of Peter is restoring me. My latter end shall be more glorious than my past or present. Thank you Lord Jesus.”
Never, never, never give up! Resist discouragement! You must bounce back! Your comeback will wipe out your setback! Amen!
