God’s word is powerful and sufficient for us. “Is not My word like a fire?” says the Lord, “and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?” (Jer. 23:29).  God’s word is sufficient, and that’s all we need. David was seen as a shepherd boy, but he was a king even though His family didn’t honour him. It doesn’t matter if they discriminate against you. God’s word on your life is sufficient to make you succeed. All you need to do is to be obedient and cooperate with God. Abraham was seen as an old man incapable of having children, but God brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be” (Gen. 15:5).

His word is sufficient for you, so just look to the all-sufficient God. God took Abraham outside to look toward heaven so he could see beyond the natural and see it the way God wanted it to be. That’s exactly what Jesus did for the miracle of the loaves and fish to happen. “⁴¹Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people. He also divided the two fish among them all. ⁴² They all ate and were satisfied, ⁴³ and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish. ⁴⁴ The number of the men who had eaten was five thousand” (Mark 6:41-44). Learn to always take stock of God’s perspective in every circumstance of life.
