Or should I say to be changed?
A challenge is an act of defiance....it is a confrontation. It is a demand for explanation or justification.
What do you do when you are challenged with life? When you are confronted with the issues of life. Those things that flow or pass through your life that bring you discomfort. That are unsettling and unwanted.
How do you confront those things in your life? Do you just accept them or do you handle them through the Word of God. To handle means to deal with. There are two ways of dealing with things.....either you cope with them or you dispose of them.
What are you doing with the issues that are confronting your life? Are you allowing them to stay....coping with them? Or are you applying the blood and Word of God to them and disposing of them?
Life is challenging. But in life's confrontations.....you should be changed. When food is cooked in a pressure cooker....it undergoes complete transformation in a short amount of time. It uses steam to promote internal pressure. Steam is the vapor phase of water. It contains power and energy.
You have to remember that water is symbolic of the anointing. So it is the steam of the anointing that contains the power and energy to transform your life when you are in high pressure situations. When you feel as though your life has been placed in a pressure cooker. Air tight on every side.....with no release from the pressure. It's at that time you have to know that the end result if transformation. Readiness, completeness, preparedness. The end result is something that is ready to be used. It is you in a place where people can eat from testimonies of your life.
Pressure is not easy to go through. It is a burning within in order to be prepared throughout. Trust God today. He has sealed you on every side. He is preparing you for His use. The confrontations.....the pressures.....are only temporary. But the result....when all is said and done.....is eternal life.
It is a complete transformation and manifestation "of" His goodness and His grace. It is a body and a life that is ready to be used "for" His goodness, His grace, and His glory.

It certaintly doesn't feel good when you are in the "pressure cooker" of life. But if you just STAND and HOLD onto GOD's Unchanging HAND(no matter how long it takes), HE WILL WORK IT OUT!!! I am not
much of a talker but God has been so GOOD to me that I can't keep it to myself. My latter days are much better than the former ones. Today is my birthday and it is the best one that I have ever had. I have been BLESSED with Family and Awesome Friends. I received at least eight phone calls today!!!(one was five minutes ago as I was writing this). My best friend from elementary and high school called. Two close friends from college called. My close friends that I met after college called. Another close friend took me out to lunch and a movie. My family blessed me the weekend. I received cards, notes and gifts in the mail. Those were icing on the cake. A card/phone call meant the world to me...just knowing that someone was thinking about me and I had/was making a difference in their lives(I didn't even know that I had made a difference in their lives). My friends don't know how much they have made a difference in my life and how BLESSED I am to have them as my friends!!! The funny thing about this is we may not talk to each other on the phone for a couple of months, a year or two, but we just pick back up where we left off. Most importantly, we keep each other and our families lifted up in prayer. I am so thankful to GOD for putting these people in my life. I am a better person because of them. Today has been surreal to me and I am still basking in God's Glory. Thank you GOD for all that you have done for me. Let me be the woman that you have designed me to be!!!
Amen....To God Be The Glory.....
Happy Birthday! I thank God for each and every blessing that He is pouring out upon your life. I thak Him even more that you are not ashamed to tell the world how good he has been to you.
I praise Him with you....because you are right....the latter shall be greater and the best is yet to come!
