I am beating myself for not posting on Sunday, March 20, 2016. It was not as if I didn’t have anything to say(type), I was not sure of what I was to share this week. It is not as if GOD is not speaking to me, HE IS constantly speaking and NOW I am ACTIVELY listening for I WANT and NEED CLEAR instructions.
Those of US who want to live in the perfect WILL of GOD, WANT and NEED clear instructions. Not wanting to sound clicheist (new word), HE IS preparing us for ALL of our desires, HE has MADE provisions for them. AGAIN, we MUST do the WORK. We MUST stop praying about it, talking about it, most definitely worrying about and DO the work.
We are experiencing, what appears to stagnation-you know when it seems to be the same ole, same ole-work-home-church-gatherings-you even get tired of eating the same food. Just wanting something else or different-stagnation. You may begin to search for old pain, that’s been HEALED just trying to “feel” alive. But thank GOD for the HOLY SPIRIT for HE allows us to BLESS the name of the LORD-WE were entrenched in that painful situation or situations (Mine were simultaneous)-for deliverance from those situations.
This period of same-ole, same-ole is the perfect time for us to get closer to GOD. I know it sounds clichiest(new word), but this is the time when things have slowed down enough for us to REALLY connect with GOD. This period is when HE can and reveal more of HIMSELF to us. We just have to stop trying to put things in HIS place. This is the period when HE allows us to REALLY mature in HIM. This is the period when you really began to give a less care (new phrase, but really an old one) about how you look or being “isolated”because you just not “feeling” it anymore. THIS really is the period when “IT” is GOD desiring us to get closer. This is the period when you can ask THOSE questions (ME?WHY?REALLY?MORE?HOW?WHEN?)and clearly hear the answers and began to wail in most cases due to our resistance, laziness, sense of entitlement, rebellion, fear and disobedience. THANK GOD, HE allows us to work on getting it right. We can no longer go back to the “flesh pots”(Egyptian Captivity).
Our inability to go back to the “flesh pots” is GOD preventing us from thwarting the promises HE has for our lives. We have messed up, given up, put off, avoided, “escaped” (kickin’it, starting new projects, making new friends, joining another ministry, changing hair whether it’s length, color, or texture) and made excuses for too long. It is now time for us to prove to GOD that HE IS the LORD of our lives and that we will thrive in the places that HE placed us in and the places HE will send us.
So as we declare that JESUS IS the LORD of our lives…know that the enemy is already planning his attack and HAS lost. WE WILL prevail in the name of JESUS!!!!!
“…Nothing will separate me from the love of GOD which is in CHRIST JESUS….”
