Turn Payback Into Praise

at some point in your life a wrong was done to you and you want to pay someone back for all the hurt that you've accrued but to go on a mission of vengeance and do a wrong for a wrong the payback spirit can overtake you away from God where you belong a payback spirit of vengeance can completely consume you with strife lead you to self destruction and totally mess up your life while Hannah remained barren, she could not bear a child Peninnah kept provoking her and that went on for a while Hannah was feeling anguish and depression, she went to the temple to pray she asked The Lord to remove that payback spirit and show her a better way Hannah wept tears of sorrow, Hannah wept tears of shame she was provoked to silently pray for a child in The Lord God's name the essence of this scripture is that we all desire to do as The Lord does say yet sometimes circumstances will not allow you to obey just look to The Lord and stretch your hands to He get down on your knees and pray He strengthens thee there will be times that you will fall down, just let The Holy Spirit lift you up come unto Jesus Christ and let Him refill your spiritual cup do what Jesus would do, whenever He'd hit a solid wall turn all your problems over to Father God and give to Him your all you might have to swallow a very bitter pill run through a gauntlet or go through the mill throw off those garments of heaviness and utter despair remove that payback spirit from your heart and give God all your cares don't forget that God always has you on His mind He will give you what you most want, but only in His own time some things in life just take time, some things will just appear God won't give you what you want until you are prepared let go of that payback spirit and all the garbage in your life pour out your soul to Jehovah Gyrah, Jesus The Lord Christ In the course of time Hannah finally did give birth she had a son named Samuel, who became God's prophet here on earth as The Bible states, you have not because you've asked not but Hannah dared asked for a son and that was what she got when you open up your heart and let The Holy Spirit within and place all in Jehovah's hand, God will come in for It's not just about you, so don't take It personally God works best through those who know about humility let go of the provocation and let your hands to God be raised and turn that payback spirit into total Godly praise
