TOPIC: THE ADVENTUROUS AVIATOR: SWITCH TO A HIGHER ALTITUDE!

BASIC SCRIPTURE: MATTHEW 6: 25-34

Remember yesterday’s write-up of the aviator who decided to go on an adventure by flying to different locations of his country. Remember how he killed the rat by flying to a higher altitude! In the same way, sometimes, when worried about the issues of life, CHANGE GEAR TO A HIGHER ALTITUDE! Switch to meditation on God’s Word! When you switch to GOD’S WORD in quietness, you are immediately transported into a HIGHER ALTITUDE because God’s Word is SPIRIT and LIFE! It is celestial, while most things that affect your peace are terrestrial! In this year 2020, deal with anxiety, worry and fear of tomorrow!

Psychologists say that most of the things we worry about are not real and for this reason, they never come to pass! This fact was enumerated succinctly by Winston Churchill when he relived his experience about worries: “When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never.happened.” Even when our worries are real and we are deeply enmeshed in them, God gives us the assurance that we will overcome them. Hear Him: “When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee” (Isaiah 43:2).

God is saying to you today not to worry about that situation you are going through. He has made provision ahead of the crisis. You must treat every challenge giving you fear, anxiety and worry like the rat of yesterday’s devotional! Soar high on the wings of faith and you will see that challenge die like the rat. I see you rejoicing this year as you FEED your FAITH and STARVE your DOUBTS to death.
