God Recycles Your Failures—Discover His Purpose Today

GM. This is Soul Food. We're like your morning alarm – relentless, a bit annoying, but you'll thank us later.

🥞🥞🥞 Here’s what we’re serving up today:

Your mistakes are never wasted. Read that again and read that slowly.

God is the best recycler and the best chef at the same time. A double act if you will. He is the best recycler in that there is no action, failure or rejection of yours that He cannot use.

The failure of an exam, He uses to open doors for something better. Rejection of a job, He uses as a springboard to open your own business. Mistake from the past, He uses so you can teach others.

In the bible Abraham had two sons, Isaac and Ishmael. Ishmael was not the son God promised him, in fact some people would say he was a mistake. But it was not a mistake to God. What people may perceive as a mistake, God sees as an opportunity to show His ABUNDANCE of grace.

So much so that three generations later God used Ishmaelites merchants to save Joseph from the pit and deliver him to Egypt. Joseph went onto save the Isrealites and the whole of Egypt during a seven year famine and do great things. But it was the mistake that Jacob made which God used to save a nation. If it wasn’t for Ishmael there would have been no Ishmaelites to save Joseph.

Your mistakes are never wasted. Read that again and read that slowly.

🔑🔑🔑 Key takeaways:

• I think you know by now: Your mistakes are never wasted.

• God can turn around what you percieve as a mistake and make it into an advantage.
