…we went through fire and through water; but You brought us out to rich fulfillment.

Are you in a situation where people are stepping all over you and they
seem to have the upper hand? You feel as if the challenge you are facing
is so big that you are going through fire. And you are so overwhelmed
by everything that is happening around you that you feel as if you are
drowning.
My friend, I want you to know that your heavenly Father hears your cry for help and He will
rescue you. The psalmist says that “we went through fire and through
water; but You brought us out to rich fulfillment”. If you have been
through the fire and water, then your next stop is a place of rich
fulfillment or abundance!
This place of abundance was indeed the next stop for a church member
who had suddenly found himself facing allegations involving some money
laundering activities within the bank where he was one of the top
executives. Investigations later exonerated him, but because of the bad
vibes caused by the incident, he was asked to resign.
He was then aged 52. Friends told him to retire and relax, but
retirement was far from his mind. This brother believed that if God had
allowed this to happen, it must be that He was leading him to a better
place, one of rich fulfillment. And indeed, soon after this difficult
experience, one of the top banks offered him a handsome salary to join
them in one of their top positions.
A few years later, at age 56, he was headhunted by one of the biggest
public-listed companies to start a new division. He accepted the offer
and was paid double what he had been earning.
Beloved, your heavenly Father does not lie when He tells you that He
will bring you out to rich fulfillment if you are going through a
difficult time. Trust Him and you will find yourself stepping into your
place of abundance!
