Years ago, I encountered a profound message: “Others May, You Cannot.” It resonated deeply, especially when a prophet later declared over my life that I would bring forth spontaneous miracles for others, things I might never experience myself.
This truth has been a heavy cross to bear, especially amidst personal loss and suffering. Ministering to others while facing my own deep needs has been a challenging journey of faith. I have experienced the miraculous and the faithfulness of God beyond measure in areas of my life that most people never see breakthroughs. I’ve dedicated my life to seeing others experience the level of breakthrough, their version of the breakthrough I’ve experienced. I’ve had few takers. Many like to hear the message but have trouble implementing these truths to their own benefit. In the midst of blessing, benefit, and overcoming every obstacle, there still lies deep inside a void that only God could fill by His divine arrangement. I’ve tried many times to address it but only hear the Father say, “Not now, not yet,” and as a man, I do question “if ever,” not because God is unfair but because I know God works through humans frailty of which I possess more than my share.
So I’m learning against my will to embrace this paradox, this season I’m in, and to choose to endure the contradiction in my life between God’s promise and my daily experience, and to find peace in the reality that my life is not my own but a vessel for God’s purposes. It requires unwavering trust, even when the pain is acute, and the promises seem distant. It is a trust anchored in who God is regardless if I ever experience the things I’ve laid before him on the altar of my life.
This is the reality of the cross – it’s brutal, exposing, and tests us beyond measure. But it also compels us to fix our eyes on Jesus, our ultimate hope and redeemer.
He is the source of my strength, the anchor of my soul. And whether in this life or the next, I trust Him to make all things right.
Perhaps you resonate with this struggle. Maybe you’re called to bring healing to others while your own wounds remain. Know that you’re not alone. Let’s walk this path together, eyes fixed on Jesus, our ever-present help in times of trouble.

Others may, but you cannot. I was drawn by the Spirit of God to pray a prayer that was on the wall of a pastor’s office years ago. I surrendered to God His will to be done and waited to see what would come my way over this prayer. Today I now see what He expects from me total obedience. I must carry this through at any cost trusting and leaning on God as my friend. There will be challenges and I must pursue the way with confidence and faith. This is my calling and there is no other.

This message definitely resonates with me. As I have Prayed, thought, and believed God for just did not come to pass and I decided that it was not in his plan or the time. You are right for me to do keep my eye on Jesus who is the author and finisher of my faith.

I’m going through this right now in my life.
It’s very hard to balance. I’m having a very hard time with it. Thank you so much for this message 🙂😌.
I know my life is not my own. For a long time now. I’ve always known that I am his vessel. I’ve been helping them with God’s words over the years. God’s just opened my eyes to there frenemies and not friends at all. I don’t have any that I can see of .
I’ve been homeless for 25 years and Satan has been trying to destroy me for this long.
I’m sick n tired of it all.
I’m the book of Job, lamitations, and a few others t in their.
I need real truthful people in my life n not ones that keep on trying to destroy it.
This message here hit my heart everything I am going through right now.
Does happiness exist at all?????
Thanks Amen 🙏 please help me get through this craziness Amen
