TODAY'S RHEMA
Proverbs 18:21 "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit."
Thomas Alva Edison is one of the most famous scientists and also recorded as the inventor of light bulb. In 1879, Thomas Alva Edison invented light bulb which made his name remembered in the history. In one of his biography, it is mentioned that Edison succeeded to invent light bulb after he did a failed research for 999 times. It means he finally succeeded to find electric light in his 1000 research. Edison stated, "I don't fail, I only find 1000 unsuccessful ways to light on my light bulb." If Edison had been frustrated and stopped his research in his 999 research, we couldn't have imagined what shape of the light's source right now.
The story above tells about Thomas Alva Edison who said that he didn't fail, he only found unsuccessful ways. It's an incredible statement which can give a spirit.
We may face many problems now. Some of you have been searching for a job and maybe you apply in many companies but you haven't got. Remember that you don't fail. You only find some ways not to get a job. For you who have an effort to find a soul mate, just remember that you only find some people who are not your soul mate. For you who fight for being free of debt, remember, you only find some ways to fail from being free of it. For you who have been fighting for a family problem, remember that you only find unsuccessful ways to face it. For you who fight for facing illness, remember that you only find unsuccessful ways to heal from it. Do not give up to fight! Whatever it is, say "I CAN!" then we will see God is working greatly. Lord Jesus bless you.
