I was reflecting on these scriptures and just how much energy and focus we need as leaders to be able to just “press on”.
There are always mountains to climb, land to acquire, goals to meet and issues to resolve but one thing that is required to navigate through these storms is our ability to pursue peace and to just “press on” – keep it moving!
We must realize that our greatest challenges and resistance often lives right at the door of our breakthroughs and success’s.
In the military, there is often an event called the “crucible” – a cumulative rigorous exercise which requires demonstrated mastery of recent learnings. The second objective of the “crucible” is often to test your ability to “press on” !
Each of us are living through our own “crucible”. To us, I share these thoughts:
⁃ Yes there is discomfort. So what, “press on”.
⁃ Yes there is disappointment. So what, “press on”.
⁃ Yes there are fears, doubts, and limited beliefs. So what, “press on”.
Yes, progress comes with a price. It demands more time of us in study, prayer and consecration.
We are in a season where breakthroughs will surface out of the chaos for those of us who choose to rest in Christ, have peace and “press on”.
We may see resistance of various kinds; but, we will have to just take the ground that has been promised to us.
We will take these hills only with the faith and belief in the promise that god has given us. This is the mindset we must develop as the whole earth is groaning and awaiting the manifestation of the sons of god.
Thank you Lord for this word!
It is my prayer and decree that , we your people, this year will just take you at your word and move forward in faith so that your kingdom comes and that your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
Press on!
“I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature [pursuing spiritual perfection] should have this attitude. And if in any respect you have a different attitude, that too God will make clear to you.”
Philippians 3:14-15 AMP
“We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed; always carrying around in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the [resurrection] life of Jesus also may be shown in our body.”
2 Corinthians 4:8-10 AMP
“You [my enemy] pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the Lord helped me. The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.”
Psalms 118:13-14 AMP
