The fact of the matter is that I know I am already blessed; therefore, bitterness cannot live in a blessed environment!
Hebrews 12:15 “15 looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;”
The world’s systems have been designed to fill us up with falsities, disappointments, lack, and because of all that, bitterness has the propensities to enter in - even when you are fortified by The Word and Power Of God!
Someone may say - not me - yes you, because as soon as you do not get what you desire then you are frustrated, disappointed, broken, busted and disgusted!
Let that raise they promised you not come when they said it would! Now you out there applying for everything under the sun, even when God has said that you are appointed to this place for this season, do not move until I tell you too!
When we looking unto - we have fixated our hearts and mind on Our Savior - The Promise - The Word - And from that fixed place we are able to endure, complete and navigate thru the the systems of this world!
Yes, we have much in this world to deal with but because of The Better in you - you are not affected by these world systems - they want to rob you of your confidence in The Lord!
But because Psalm 16:8 “8 I have set the Lord always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.”
I refused to be moved from my established place
I won’t be moved from my peace
I won’t be moved from The Joy Of The Lord!
I won’t be moved into being bitter because I realize that Jesus The Christ, The Holy Spirit of God - has made me better!

Because He Went Through It All For Me - I Am Too Better To Be Bitter!

Acts 2:22 “22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know—”
God has not brought you out of that place of bitter, for you to remain in it - Stay where you are better, not where you were bitter - He pulled us through all that you have gone through, you are on the other side of it - why are you still holding on to it?
Because He Rose and you believe - You Are Better - Because He Rose and you have Received The Holy Spirit - You Are Too Better!
God has you in a “Determined Purpose” place - Acts 2:23 “23 Him, being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified, and put to death;”
So it does not matter what you endured and have been through, you are in a place that God knew before the foundations of the world!
Pentecost - “Fifty” “The Feast Of Harvest” What has come in and skewed your view of The Power that God bestowed upon you at your day of Pentecost?
Your belief in The Resurrection awakened you, and let you know that you must receive The Power from The Holy Spirit in order to be sealed! Yet we return back to what weakens us and diminishes our power, knowing the instructions given to us is to look unto Him!
(Three Plowmen Plowing A Field)
The Seven Looks:
Look Up - In All Things Praise The Lord
Look Forward - Always Keep You Heart Set On God Through The Holy Spirit
Look Down - So That You Can See The Ordering Of Your Steps By The Lord
Look Back - And You Will Glorify God For Bringing You Through
Look Around - And Thank Him For Protecting You From The Snares Of The Enemy
Look Into - So You Will See The Greater In You And Not The World
Look Unto - Remain Fixed On The Ultimate Example - Jesus The Christ - Who Is Seated At The Right Hand Of Our Father!
Who Got Up With All Power In His Hand!
And because you believe in Him, He has set you down in the place of Better!
Regardless of the lawless hands of the enemy - you are still alive - not just alive, but you are BETTER!
Naomi allowed her mind to focused on the affliction, more so than the BETTER that God can do! Job said; regardless of the affliction, because I know it is The Lord’s Hand that may slay me, I am still better because He Has Greater Mercy!
As David said; “Although I have done this awful thing in Your Sight Lord, I am still better because Your Mercies are Greater than man!” 2 Samuel 24:14 “14 And David said to Gad, “I am in great distress. Please let us fall into the hand of the Lord, for His mercies are great; but do not let me fall into the hand of man.”” 2 Samuel 24:17 “17 Then David spoke to the Lord when he saw the angel who was striking the people, and said, “Surely I have sinned, and I have done wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Let Your hand, I pray, be against me and against my father’s house.”” 2 Samuel 24:19 “19 So David, according to the word of Gad, went up as the Lord commanded.”
Regardless of your current state, do not become the bitterness of that state - Seek the peace of that place because God is still there, even though you may not see Him!
These world systems were designed to keep you at the gate begging, but when you gave your attention to BETTER - You received The Word that corrected those things in you that were broken, dislocated and out of place!
You placed your hand in God’s Hand and He lifted you from that bitter place
Then you received strength!
Forgetting where you were, you now are in BETTER so you praise Him!
