Whatever mercy God opens for the people, none can stop it. What He holds back none can send it other than Him. He is the Noble, the Wise. (Qur’an, 35:2).

Sometimes you may tell: “If I had more money I could accomplish my dreams. If I had a bigger house then I would be happy. If I had more talent, better personality, then I can do something great.” However, as long as you feel like you are lacking, you do not have enough, you were shortchanged you will make excuses to be less than your best.

Know that you are going to have new perspective. God has given you exactly what you need for the season that you are in. You have the talent, the friends, the connections, the resources and the experience you need for right now. God has given you the best. As Joseph (peace be upon him) said,

“Indeed He is my Lord, has given me a good abode. (He gave me what I need in the best way).” (Qur’an, 12:23).

God is the One Who gives the best Perfection to all that He created. (Qur’an, 32:7).

He says,

“Indeed We created man in perfect Balance [spiritual, mental and physical].” (Qur’an, 95:4).

Those who trust in the lord will never lack any good thing. Because your trust is in the lord, you do not have to worry. Whatever you need, Almighty God will make sure you have it when you need it. You will not lack any good thing. It means if you do not have it right now do not fight it. Do not be discouraged.

Your attitude should be “I am equipped and empowered for this moment.” If you needed a better personality, Almighty God would have given you a better personality. Take what you have and make the most of it; it is what you need for right now.

You were not appointed by any group or by human authority. Your call came from Almighty God. People may do not approve. Do not worry about it. God approves you. People cannot stop Gods plan for your life.

Whatever mercy God opens for the people, none can stop it. What He holds back none can send it other than Him. He is the Noble, the Wise. (Qur’an, 35:2).

If God were to inflict you with harm, then none can remove it except Him; and if He were to bless you with good, then He is capable of all things. (Qur’an, 6:17).

If God helps you, no one can overcome you, but if He forsakes you, who will help you after Him? Therefore, in God let all the faithful put their trust. (Qur’an, 3:160).

When you come to the end of your life you do not have to answer to the people, you will answer to Almighty God. Do not let what some people say or do make you feel less than unqualified. The creator of the universe has handpicked you. Say, “This is all I need right now. God is on the throne, directing my steps, when I need more he will give me more.”

As long as you keep honoring God, he will give you what you need, when you need it. So be faithful. It is what you need for fulfill your destiny. The moment it becomes not enough, is the moment God will give you more. Instead of thinking what you do not have, say, “this is all I need.” Just be the best. Be virtuous. Know that:

Anyone who reverences God, He will create an exit for him. He will provide for him whence he never expected. Anyone who puts his trust in God, He suffices him. God’s commands will be done. (Qur’an, 65:3).

God knows what you need when you need and how to get it to you. God is watching you. Directing your steps, God has you in the palm of his hand.

Jesus (peace be upon him) met a Samaritan woman at a well and he asked her for something to drink. She was a little surprised because in those days the Jews did not have anything to do with the Samaritans.

She said how you could ask me for something to drink. Jesus said if you knew who I am, you would ask of me and I would give you living water. She immediately began to look in the natural. She said, “But sir you do not have anything to draw water with. You do not have any kind of bucket, any kind of pail. How can you give me living water?”

Many times, you may do the same thing. God Almighty tells you he is going to do something great in your life. Down deep, he puts a dream on the inside that you are going to rise higher. You are going to see our marriage restored. You are going to get healthy again.

You feel it so strongly but like her, you start looking at what you do not have, the way you were raised, the obstacles in your path. Before long, you take yourself out of it. However, you served a supernatural God. He can take something that ordinary, and turn it into something that is extraordinary.

Did you not know that God possesses the sovereignty of heavens and earth? He punishes whom He wills and He forgives whom He wills; and God is capable of all things. (Qur’an, 5:40).

Say, “O God, Possessor of kingship; you grant kingship to whom You please, and revoke kingship from whom You please, and honor whom You please, and humiliate whom You please; in Your hand is goodness. You are capable of all things.” (Qur’an, 3:26).

All David (peace be upon him) had was a slingshot and five smooth stones. It looked insignificant, ordinary, and nothing special, but God breathed on it. Therefore, he defeated Goliath and became the king of Israel. Qur’an says,

“So when Saul set out with the soldiers … they said, “We have no power today against Goliath and his soldiers!” However, the ones who understood that they would meet God said, “How many a small party has overcome a larger party by God’s will! And God is with the patient!” David killed Goliath, and God gave him the kingship and the wisdom and taught him what He wished.” (Qur’an, 2:249-251).

All Moses (peace be upon him) had was an ordinary stick, something he found on the ground. Yet when he picked it up, held that rod in the air, the red sea supernatural roads parted.

God says, “And what is in your right hand O Moses?” He said, “It is my staff, I lean on it, and I guide my sheep with it, and I have other uses in it.” God said, “Cast it down O Moses.” Therefore, he cast it down, and it became a moving serpent! God said, “Take it and do not be fearful, We will turn it back to its previous form.” (Qur’an, 20:17-21).

So do not underestimate what you have. It may look small and insignificant. Compared to what you are facing, it seems impossible. All the odds are against you, but when God breathes on your life, the odds dramatically change. You and God are a majority. God can open doors that should have never opened. God can take you beyond where your talent and your education, says you should go. God can make a way even when you do not see a way.

With Him are the keys and treasures of the Unseen; no one knows them except Him. (Qur’an, 6:59).

It is not enough to just have faith in God. That is important, but you should have faith in what Almighty God have given you. You are not lacking. You were not shortchanged. You are not at a disadvantage. The creator of the universe is breathing on your life. He is breathing on your health, finances, marriage and …. If you will be confident in what Almighty God has given you He can take what looks like little and turn it into much. Be like:

Those, to whom the people said, “All the people have gathered against you; so fear them.” However, that only increased them in faith, and they said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is an excellent trustee.” (Qur’an, 3:173).

With God’s help, you can do your duty. Do not say, “I cannot do this, it is too difficult.” No, God would not have given you this duty if you were not able to do that.

God does not task any soul beyond its capacity. (Qur’an, 2:286).

When God give you this job, gave you the authority to do that with a good attitude. So, just think about your duty. He Al-mighty says,

“I give you just a single advice: that you rise up for God’s sake, in twos, or individually.” (Qur’an, 34:46).

If you trust Almighty God and try to do your duty and be patient, He will help you, as He did before.

God would reinforce you with three thousand of the Angels sent down? Indeed, if you are patient and are righteous and they come and attack you, He will reinforce you with five thousand of the Angels battle trained. (Qur’an, 3:123 -125).

If you use what God have given you, he will multiply it. He will multiply your talent, resources, influence. God is not into addition. He is into multiplication.

God enhances several fold whomever He wishes, and God is all-bounteous, all-knowing. (Qur’an, 2:261).

You have exactly what you need to fulfill your destiny. Here is a key; it may not be as much as a family member, as much as …, but you are running your race. Do not try to be like somebody else. You may say, “I wish I had their talent, their looks, personality.” No, know that you are unique. You are one of a kind. Nobody has what you have. So say, “I have what I need.”

Do not dismiss what God has given you. It may not be as impressive as somebody else has. Know that what God has given you has been custom made. He specifically gave you your gifts, your talents, your personality. God matched you for your world.

He put in you exactly what you need to fulfill his plan for your life. You have what you need for today. If you put your trust in the Lord, you will never lack any good thing. So trust in Him. Be patient, and say,

“I entrust my affair to God. Indeed God sees best the servants.” (Qur’an, 40:44).
