“Jesus said to her, ‘Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?’” — John 11:40 (NKJV)

Have you been going through a difficult situation lately? Have the doctors given you a difficult diagnosis? Are you beginning to conclude that your problem is beyond a solution? If you can believe, you will see the glory of God.

This was exactly what Jesus said to Martha when she protested, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he (Lazarus) has been dead four days.” (John 11:39). But Jesus didn’t focus on how long Lazarus had been dead. He knew that Lazarus would come back to life. However, He needed Martha and Mary to believe. Without their belief, faith would not be released, and the power of God would not be activated.

You might be going through some tough times right now. Perhaps you’re starting to think things are falling apart. But do not fret—there is always a solution. What is required of you is simple: believe. Believe that you are coming out of that situation triumphantly. Believe that, against all odds, a solution will come—even when no solution is in sight.

This is the attitude required to win in any situation. It is the weapon you need to subdue the manipulations of the devil. If you can hold on to this one thing, you will not be defeated. Instead, you will experience God’s supernatural power again and again.

So today, I encourage you: believe no matter what. Your situation might look complicated, but trust that things will loosen up—and they will. This is where many people miss it. When circumstances seem impossible, they assume it’s the end. But that’s not true. Often, when things get toughest, the solution is just around the corner. Only believe. Make this small adjustment in your heart, and you’ll be amazed at how things begin to turn around for your good. Praise God!

Today’s Rhema

If you can only believe, that situation will bow to you!

Confession for the Day

Father, I thank You for this timely message. I declare today that no matter what I face or go through, I will not cower in the face of adversity. Instead, I choose to believe in Your power to turn things around for my good, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
