The Worst-Case Scenario Is Not The Worst

Imagine the worst thing that could happen to you right now, perhaps something close to death or death itself. But it’s nothing. Did I just say that? Yes! It’s nothing. Let me explain. The life God has given you is more important than death. The assignment God has given you is more important than the appointment man has given you. The challenge we have most times is that we don’t know 'who we are' and 'what we have'. We are so afraid of the future. We don’t know what will happen. We don’t know the future. There are so many things we don’t know. And it seems those are the things that threaten us most. We are so afraid and intimidated, walking in fear and anxiety every hour of the day and every day of the week. Is this the life God has given us? Is this how we’re going to continue living in fear and timidity? No single moment of rest. It’s negative thoughts all over. Always rising and falling into stress and depression, and headache and body pains. If only we know what we’ve got, If only we can take some moments out to meditate. Then, we would have been free from those troubles long time ago. One of my teachers often says there’s nothing too important in life than the life itself. There’s no urgency in life that is more than the life that you have. Take patience and relax yourself. There’s no problem except the one you create for yourself. Think of the worst-case scenario now and you will see that it’s not more important than the life that you have. If you think of death, you will say, won’t it terminate your life? No! death won’t terminate your life, it will only transfer you from one side to another side. And that’s why you should not be afraid of it. Not that you should be careless with your life but don’t be intimidated by it. Live a good life. Fulfill God’s purpose for your life. That’s why you are here. By the way, death has got nothing to do with you if God didn’t allow it. So, you are safe. And be rest assured that you have life insurance with God if you are in Him. Let nothing disturbs your heart. Let nothing bothers your mind. Be focused and face your assignment here. Devil doesn’t want you to fulfill your assignment. That’s why he’s always bringing problems and difficulties your way so that you will be distracted and frustrated. But never mind. He’s defeated. God has made him helpless and powerless. You are above and beyond him. You’ve got victory in Christ. Celebrate your victory and liberty. Congratulations! Blessings.
