Experience:

Scriptures:

“Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.“ – Romans 8:37 (NKJV)

“No one who hopes in you
will ever be put to shame,
but shame will come on those
who are treacherous without cause.“ – Psalm 25:3 (NIV)

“But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.“ – Isaiah 53:5 (NKJV)

“So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.“ – Isaiah 55:11 (NKJV)

“What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.“ – Ecclesiastes 1:9 (NIV)

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.“ – Hebrews 11:1 (NIV)

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.“ – Hebrews 11:6 (NIV)

Hold Yourself Accountable:

Make a decision to shift your perspective from reacting to responding to challenges and setbacks you encounter.

Apply the Kingdom Principle:

“From that time Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, regret past sins, live your life in a way that proves repentance; seek God’s purpose for your life], for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”” – Matthew 4:17 (AMP)

Take Action Now:

Ask yourself this question: “Which is bigger the challenge/setback or our God?”
Search the Word of God for a Scripture that applies to the challenge you’re experiencing.
