Possessing your Promised land...
Requires action...
Walking forward...
One foot in front of the other...
Making required changes...
Becoming a participant, not just a spectator...
Living, moving, and breathing...
Seeking, remaining & abiding in God's presence...
Falling down...yet standing back up!
Stumbling...yet never giving up!
Pressing on toward the goal!
Persevering in...through...& despite!
"But I feel..."
"DESPITE my feelings, I press on..."
"But it's hard..."
"I CAN do ALL things through Christ!!!"
"But I can't do this..."
"I AM MORE than a Conqueror!"
"But I'm so weak..."
"God's strength is PERFECT in my weakness!"
Re-gain your focus. Put your eyes on the prize. Grab a hold of the outstretched hand of Jesus. Wipe the sweat from your brow. Tell your pity-party to take a hike. Get back up! Fight the good fight. No one can walk this journey for you!
God has promised to go before you and behind you and beside you. God has promised to carry your burdens. God has promised to strengthen you. God has promised your destination, but you still have to walk forward. You have to possess it. You have to want it.
You have to do your part...whatever it is God has asked you to do. The instructions for each of us may be different, but it will require an act of obedience on your part. Are you supposed to "let go" of something so He can give you something better? Are you to lay down your offenses and forgive? Are you supposed to trust Him and keep your mouth closed instead of taking matters into your own hands?
For me, I'm learning to believe God IS who He says He is...not just for everyone else, but for ME! Will I TRUST, and THEN OBEY what He asks me to do? Will I TRUST God is who He says He is, and that I AM who God says I AM despite how I feel????
So I am going through my personal journey of TRUSTING GOD, BELIEVING HIM, & THEN OBEYING HIM DESPITE MY FEELINGS.
What action is God calling you to today? Will you walk another step toward YOUR Promised Land by CHOOSING to obey?
