Many of us are stuck in a situation or circumstance that is slowly draining us spiritually. It’s slowly taking away the joy in our lives and seems there is no end in sight. We have been praying, fasting and going to church. But somehow it seems that we are in the same place. Some days are better than others but for the most part things are still the same.
In these times we have to stop and back track a bit. Go back to where the problems first began. Hebrews 5:12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. The Word of God tells us even those called to teach have to be retaught. So from this we see that it’s best to sit down a moment and or retrace your steps and wait to hear from God rather than continuing on a destructive path.
When we are able to humble ourselves, acknowledge that the plan we were using is ineffective we can began to get into place where we can hear from God. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Manna for thought: Many of us read this verse and can understand that in order for healing and deliverance (your breakthrough) we must humble ourselves, we must pray and we must seek His face. But here is where the issue lies; no one wants to turn from there wicked ways. We don’t want to give up what God is clearly showing us is the problem. The solution seems simple; give it up to gain so much more. I love you all. Have a blessed weekend
