It is time to move forward!

Each of us have to make choices daily. We have to make up in our mind if we are going to move forward of if we will be paralyzed by our situation! In saying that, I must say that if we are not careful our life will be taken too soon! We may be alive in the physical, but we can be very much dead spiritually! When we have a loss come along that shakes us and wakes us up, it is for a purpose! As I watched Whitney's home going service I was reminded that tomorrow is not promised! It is time to move forward! It is time to allow our trials to cause us to move forward! Let these verses usher you through this current season of your life:"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,  fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart."~Hebrews12:1-3

It is easy to feel as if things will always be a certain way! We can get to a place in our walk with God that we feel weary! There can be trials that come and knock the wind out of us and we feel as if we do not have the strength to go forth! But I came to you this day to remind you that your strength does not come from the north nor from the south or the east nor the west! Our strength comes from God! Our strength comes from raising our head and rising up and declaring that if God be for me who can be against me! Don't allow what is to your right nor to your left keep you from going forward!The time is now to go forth with what God has told you to do!

When it seems as if you can not run on, let God breathe fresh on you! Be reminded that the race is not given to the one that runs the fastest! The race is given to the one who makes it to the end! Hebrews 12:1-3 reminds us that we are to throw off everything that hinders us and the sin that so easily entangles us! Oh, but it does not stop there! We are to run not walk the race that God has set out before us! Not just an aimless run but run the course that is set out for each of us! In running we must keep our eyes focused on Jesus! In doing this we will not grow weary! So my sister and my brother, grab hold to these verses and allow them to walk you through this current season of your life!

My friend, you have everything you need inside of you to go forth! Activate your faith by speaking those things that be not as though they were! Don't underestimate the power of standing on the Holy word of God! What does it take to go forth you ask! It takes a made up mind and a desire to be all that God called you to be! Go forth with boldness! Go forth with excitement! Go forth with one thing on your mind fulfilling your purpose! Go forth my friend! It is time to move forward!
