Isaiah 61:7 (NIV) Instead of their shame, my people will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace they will rejoice in their inheritance; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting joy will be theirs.
Shame is one of the most crippling emotions there is. When something has been done to you that has humiliated you, you feel helpless, ashamed and embarrassed. It's hard to move on from such feelings. Finding a sense of self worth, value and dignity is a process that a lot of people never fully undergo. God has promised us that we, as his people, are entitled to a double portion of our inheritance. Because of the shame we have suffered, he has promised us DOUBLE of everything he is already planning to give us. Start seeing yourself through the eyes of God. What happened to you does not define you. It qualifies you for double. Take what you learned from your situation and use it to enrich someone else's life with the Power of God. God has big plans for you, and instead of shame, God has given you matchless power and endless benefits!
