Those Who Mocked You Will Bury Their Heads In Shame

even when they were mistreating you deep down they knew what they were doing but here's the thing there's a bigger lesson God wants you to learn it's a lesson meant for you to stop resisting what he's trying to show you about the people around you stop going against the flow stop trying to fight the current God wants to lead you into calmer Waters but you need to stop struggling many of you have been fighting to stay in sit situations that don't serve you fighting for people who don't fight for you you've been holding on to

prove a point but God says that's not necessary you don't have to make everything so difficult for yourself stop focusing on what you've lost and start looking forward to what you can gain God is ready to guide you to a place of Peace but you must stop resisting the process there was a time when you were drowning in life's challenges because you are putting all your energy Hope and Faith into people instead of trusting in God you were trying to make things work on your own but God had better plans for you all along you

need to believe that there is something greater out there for you that you deserve more not everyone is against you not everyone is here to judge or harm you there are people who see you for who you truly are and they value you so remember you don't have to fight for recognition or approval trust in God's plan and he will take you to where you need to be when Jesus was being crucified he was placed between two thieves one of them was arrogant mocking Jesus by saying aren't you the Messiah if you are save yourself

and us the other Thief however had a different heart he humbled himself and rebuked the Arrogant Thief asking do you not fear God this thief recognized jesus' innocence and understood the bigger picture Jesus didn't die on the cross for his own sake he died for us for our sins showing the ultimate selflessness in that moment the humble Thief acknowledged his own wrongdoings and sought forgiveness while the other Thief remained full of Pride this story speaks to the message God is trying to share with you today there are people in your life who have acted with

arrogance thinking they knew who you were assuming they had you all figured out they might have spoken harshly judged you unfairly or treated you poorly without considering the impact of their words or actions some of them didn't care at the time they felt justified in their behavior thinking they had power over you but just like in the story of the two thieves there are those who have realized their mistakes some people have come to see who you really are and are now asking God for forgiveness whether their actions were hidden or out in the open

they've had a change of heart they've come to understand that their actions were wrong and they're seeking Redemption in the same way that Jesus forgave The Humble Thief God sees those who are truly sorry and welcomes them with open arms some people in your life are now humbling themselves asking for a second chance and for some of you Jesus has been calling you from Darkness into light but you've been resisting because of the pain others have caused you you may have felt Unworthy of the blessings or responsibilities he's trying to give you but remember God's

grace is always there for you he sees your worth even when you don't some of you look around at your surroundings and wonder why is God blessing me when so many others are struggling you see people who can't pay their bills people suffering and carrying heavy burdens you may even question what makes me so special but the truth is God sees your journey he knows the hardships you faced and the ones you will still face when God came to you it was during a time of great distress you were at your lowest needing someone to

breathe life back into you you've been giving your all to others showing love and support but never receiving it in return it left you feeling drained with nothing left to give you fought so hard not just against people but also against the direction God wanted to take you God was trying to pull you out of those battles trying to guide you toward peace yet you resisted holding on to the struggles because that's what you knew the disappointments the losses the heartache they weighed heavily on you I can't fully grasp how deep your pain was but

I know you've endured a lot during this time there were people who treated you with arrogance and cruelty they didn't care about the pain they caused but now they feel ashamed because they're starting to realize who you truly are Jesus wasn't going to let others condemn you when everyone has their own faults no one's sin is greater than anothers he lifted you up reminding you that good people do not finish last in his eyes God chose you because he knows your worth he knows you will serve him well you don't need to prove yourself to

anyone but him so let go of the battles and burdens you've been carrying you've been fighting for others but now it's time to allow God to lead you into the calm Waters he has prepared for you many who mistreated and betrayed you are feeling regret but don't focus on why they did it instead keep your eyes on the path God is leading you down knowing that you are here by his grace and that is enough you're still here today and that's not by chance you've managed to keep going even when it felt like you couldn't

because God was there for you he held you when no one else did breathed life back into you when you felt drained and kept you moving forward day by day you've had your share of heartaches loneliness and disappointments but through it all you're still standing for every bruise for every tear you're still here thank God for that despite all the struggles and setbacks you made it through another day because God has been watching over you there were nights when you cried yourself to sleep with no one to come comfort you you gave your all to

others your love your time your energy yet when you needed someone there was no one there for you God stepped in during those moments reminding you to lay your burdens at his feet he saw the weight you carried and he has been guiding you through it all the burdens you've faced weren't just physical you carried emotional financial and spiritual burdens too but God has been telling you to let go to stop fighting against the current he's been trying to lead you to a place of Peace while some of the same people who caused your pain

are now realizing who you are people who once overlooked you judged you or didn't show up when you needed them are beginning to understand the strength you possess they see how far you've come but they don't know the battles you fought to get here they see your success but they don't know the tears you shed or the loneliness you endured through it all you're still here because God kept you you've been lied on betrayed and hurt but you survived you're still here today stronger and wiser because of everything you went through and now some people

feel ashamed for the way they treated you they know you didn't deserve the mistreatment and they're realizing that you are so much more than they ever gave you credit for they admire you now they admire your resilience your strength your bravery and your courage you took risks and it paid off God saw you through it all and now everyone can see the results of your faith and perseverance I know you faced your share of disappointments burdens and dark days but throughout it all God was there he wrapped you in his presence breathed life back into

you and led you out of that Darkness into the light he brought you through so you could help others going through the same struggles you once faced you've made it you're no longer struggling because you stopped fighting against the current you allowed God to guide you to calmer Waters it was never your responsibility to carry the bird burdens of others and yet some people left you to deal with their problems alone but now whatever Justice comes their way is not your concern stop looking back and seeking answers for things that have already been resolved God

has given you the clarity you need to move forward and it's only up from here yes they feel ashamed now they realize who you are and regret trying to bring you down whether by speaking against you doubting you or mistreating you now some of those same people want to be on your side they want to support you speak highly of you and be part of your journey but when you were going through your hardest times they were nowhere to be found God was the one who pulled you through he was the one who held you

up through the lies the Betrayal and the heartache when you had no strength left to fight you finally released control and let him guide you to peace now people recognize your worth but don't let that slow you down keep pushing forward hold your head high and never let anyone see you falter stay strong stay prayed up and be blessed I love you
