Runners take your mark, get set, Go!
When you’re running your race, that gun goes off and you take that first step off the blocks is when you’ll see that the journey is just as beautiful as the Destination. Listening to God’s voice and just going allows us to be appreciative of the abundance that surrounds instead of focusing on the end. Comparison is the thief of joy but God allows us to be able to find the beauty in our journey. Understanding that we are all unique pieces of the puzzle. Our purpose in life has a unique role in what we shall do for the kingdom. Trusting that will give of the faith and courage to do what God calls us to do. Whether it may be running away from what God has Call you or backsliding from the call. Whether you may feel like Jonah or the prodigal son, You have a unique and distinct purpose on your life. No one can stop you from what God has for you but we can get in our own way if we are not careful. Stop allowing the attacks of the enemy deplete you. Stay encourage in the foundation of truth. God takes the best care of his children. He want us to make the best of the time we do have rather than focusing of the things we can’t control. I mean walking be faith and not by sight is a lot better in my opinion. All I have to so is focus on the next step and God will take care of the rest. Staying disciplined focused and grounded in the word with aid in defeating the attacks of the enemy. Speaking like and truth our the plans God has for you is needed in the journey. The Enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy don’t let him slither his way into your life to deter you from the plan God has for you. The feelings of Doubt and insecurity no longer reside at your house. You have strength and boldness in the Lord. Nothing can stop you. Take captive every thought and make obedient to the word of God. Replace the lies with truth. Knowing our past mistakes do not define us but gives us wisdom as we move forward.
Dear Heavenly Father I pray for the persons reading this post. I thank you for allowing them to seek more about you. Thank you for using this platform for them to do it. I ask that you give them encouragement and reassurance that the vision you have given them is possible. Surround them around people that with speak life into them and hold them accountable. Teach them to run their own race, looking left and right will only discourage them. Remind them that they are love and enough. Allow them to right the vision and make it plain. Give them the strength to push forward and discipline to keep going. Don’t allow their feelings stop them from taking action. This is a long tedious journey but having you by our side makes everything possible. In Jesus name , I pray. Amen.
