Live Like a Champion

Living In The Rain of God's Favor

God longs for us to be like a well watered garden,
flourishing, full of joy, always in blossom. Yet
many times, due to situations that are happening in
our lives, we don't necessarily feel like we are
in full blossom, rather we feel like we're in a
dry spell.

When this happens, instead of giving up and
accepting your present circumstance as your lot
in life, decide to praise God more than you ever
have. In the Bible, the psalmist said, "I will
keep on hoping for You to help me. I will praise
You more and more." When we decide to give God
praise, something powerful and supernatural
happens. Peace, joy and divine favor begin to
rain down over our lives.

By praising God at all times, what happens in
the natural with rain, will be the same
spiritually over your lives; a cloud can only
hold so much condensation, so many vapors,
before it releases. In the same way, when you
keep sending up praise, you keep singing, "God
is good all the time," that cloud can only hold
so much before the blessings come bursting back
down. When you stay full of praise, God's blessing
will begin raining down, making sure that you
are always in blossom; causing you to bloom where you're
currently planted, even if you're in a dry spell!
