Set Up For An Upset

have you ever felt like you've been set up? have you ever felt like you've taken the fall? you're angry, in denial, frustrated and fed up while you're so-called friends are out having a ball but when God sets you up it's a form of preparation He's positioning you to receive a blessed commendation that eviction notice, that pink slip, that broken romance may be blessings in disguise for God has to eliminate and move things about in order to give you a greater prize you've felt violated, abused, neglected and in pain you're in the midst of a personal storm and under tremendous strain but if you only come to understand one thing in this life is that everything is in the hands of our Lord Jesus Christ you need to let go and give God complete control let Him set you up so you may achieve even greater goals an upset occurs when the obvious favorite is surprisingly defeated the underdog will claim the victory when the game is completed we are all underdogs in life for we've all fallen short of God's grace but God will give you an upset in order to take you to a higher place you've been set up for an upset and the enemy is on the attack don't worry about the opposition for Jesus has your back to be like Samuel, King David and Joseph with that technicolor coat set up by God to overcome adversity and to ride on the Holy Spirit's float to be like Peninnah, Elizabeth and Mary followers of God's master plan set up by God to be the vessels that placed great sons into His hands to be set up by God you need an uncompromising faith let Him give you an overflowing and abundant plate God will set you up in order for you to achieve an upset He will situate you in a position so you don't have to hedge your bets so stop trying to orchestrate it all and attempt to do it on your own let the power of prayer prove the glory that is His righteous throne so just hold on, fight through it and then commence to pray through the up and downs, trials and tribulations that will come each and every day and restore the joy by praying to God and the Holy Spirit will then step up let the Lord God reposition you and by Him get set up it might not make much sense to you those things that God has planned it might cause you some anguish and anxiety just keep the faith and hold on to His merciful hand God will place you in a position to be set up for an upset an unanticipated victory and a blessing you will then get
