Ain't No Looking Back
I will be the first to admit, there is a uncomfortable feeling of moving toward the unknown. You wanna press through and receive all that God has for you but something deep inside is so use to the normalcy even if it's determent to our walk in life. You see you and I are at times no different from the Israelite's that fled from Egypt. God did some amazing things right before their eyes but somehow they still complained and at times said they wanna go back into slavery instead of pressing toward the promise that God had for them. I don't know about you but when I read about it in the bible (Exodus, Numbers, and Joshua) I found myself calling them fools and ignorant but Hello! I have been guilty of stinking thinking and doubt to many times to count, despite all of the amazing miracles God has done in my life when things doesn't look clear or packaged the way I envisioned I get scared. I start pondering on the idea of going back into the work field he took me out of or concentrate on how things can go wrong instead of visualizing how big my future and promise is. The bible states how a man think so is he (Proverbs 23:7 As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.) Hmmm something to think and meditate about. I am always thinking about how I don't have for this bill or that bill always struggling in my mind. Boom next think you know I am struggling and finances aren't adding up. The very thing that I kept giving my energy to manifested. Instead rebuke every pretension thought and replace it with the word of God. The bible has proved itself real and alive more than too many times to count. I know that God is a God that he can't lie. Then, why is it so hard to believe him?
That good ole flesh and devil is very tricky and do not kid yourself the negative will manifest faster than the positive sometimes. Just think about it, the devil moves quickly because he has no real authority so he needs you to do all the work for him, he knows that you have purpose, power, and authority over him. So he constantly throws hints of distractions your way. As for our loving God is long suffering and knows the he is preparing you for something great and wants you to be the best you. He takes his time and creates a new you. This is when you have to learn to be patient and confident in God. Although, his ways are beautiful and mind blowing the human mind wants everything fast and how they envisioned it.
I want you to focus on this scripture here ( Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord.) You see God is saying you can't even fathom what I have for you. The only thing he requires is trust! It is so crazy because we can put our trust in things that we know won't benefit no good fruit at all but still somehow trust it. However, when it comes to our God we are scared and frantic. Talk about having to get it all together. I can't judge you because as I stated I do it often more than what people may think. I am not proud of it but I am being honest. The one thing I will take pride in is that I force myself to get in alignment with God. I fight the good fight because I really want to please him. (Hebrews 11;6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.) I would hate to be the woman who has preached and shouted but displeased God in my faith. I just can't go out like that. For all the great things he has done in my life I want to at least please him.
I challenge you today to walk forward with confidence of winning and know that with God for you who can stand against you? ( Romans 8;31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?) Read you scriptures daily! I have to be honest with you when I delay in reading, that's when I find my mind playing tricks on me. It is great for keeping you moving forward and to help you to renew your mind. Also, I, wanna add, be thankful always it is always something to thank God for. When doing this your showing the enemy that you're confident in God coming through for you like he always does. Yes the road isn't easy because you have an adversary looking to kill, steal, and destroy. Just remember you have the victory and you have already won. Christ already defeated the devil we just have to walk in our purpose and destiny. You came too far to quit. You owe it to yourself to see what lies ahead! Let God blow your mind! (Ephesians 3:20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us). Are you reading what I am reading? He said he can do more than we ever can think and he will do it through us. Trust Abba (Father) for he knows what you need and when you need it. Pray and ask for clarity, wisdom, and strength. God bless you all and I love you all to health.
