Never limit the limitless ! We
mustn't let our hearts melt ! do not get your eyes off of GOd and his
ability and on to the circumstance, the problem, the obstacle, the Giant
in front of you. As soon as you do you will fall to defeat. As Caleb and Joshua we must be
of a different spirit that believes beyond belief sees beyond sight...
that trusts God and is totally confident in Him no matter what the
natural circumstances say...we aren't limited by the natural...we are of
the realm that created this realm...children of the spirit and the
Creator of all dwells within us... Also look a the story of Elijah
in...I Kings 18:21-46...He was Bold, he was confident ..he trusted God,
he knew God had told him to go and call down fire from heaven to turn
the hearts of the people back to Him and he new God would send it
down...he didn't doubt...so much so that when the prophets of Baal were
cutting themselves and calling to their god...he made fun of them saying
maybe your god is away on business...etc...we must wholly trust God like
that to walk in the boldness and the confidence needed to see Gods power
released through us...turning hearts to Christ... bringing hope to the
hopeless.. to be his revolutionaries But we must read on a few verses
later our bold hero Elijah becomes a scardy pants. what happened?
as with the children of Israel he surcome to the enemy of faith...fear
and got his eyes on the natural and off the supernatural...he listened
to the bad report and let his heart melt. the queen was hunting him down
to kill him. How quickly he forgot the victory (that he had just called
fire down from heaven) and surcome to defeat. it only takes a shifting
of the eyes The devil came for his joy and he gave it up.... We are the light of the world
..we are the salt of the earth...we are the hope to the hopeless...if
the hope loses hope the world is doomed...this is the plan of the
enemy...he comes to steal your joy and to kill the seed within you to
stop the things of God within you from coming forth. Jesus said the
cares of the world would choke out his word within you and no fruit
would be brought forth to completion...(the child within you would be
aborted )... Joy is not relative to our
circumstance as Paul we must learn in what ever state we are in to be
content. I mean look at the guy he was beaten, shipwrecked ,stoned and
left for dead, went hungry, went without clothes.. etc and still he said
this light momentary afflictions they are nothing compared to the glory
that will be revealed in us! that is a warrior .a true revolutionary.
nothing could take his joy because Jesus was his joy...as He said I
count everything else as dung compared to knowing Jesus.... |
