I was reflecting and meditating on this scripture this morning and was considering “what does it mean?” or “what could this mean?” in our lives today, as leaders.
We exist in a world where things go wrong: things break and are in disrepair, important tasks are unfinished, relationships can get strained and important goals have yet to get started.
In short, life can be a bit disorganized, challenging and disjointed draining us emotionally, physically and even spiritually.
So, how can we still grasp hold of and move toward the promises of god?
“You will know that your home is safe. When you survey your possessions, nothing will be missing.”
Job 5:24 NLT
“…for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.”
James 1:4 NLT
“….I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
John 10:10B KJV
Selah
Many of these items(burdens) we carry are usually due to lack of clarity on our desired outcome, resource constraints or the perception that the energy required to address the issue is too great.
Sometimes we still incorrectly believe that “we” need to solve the issue “our” way vs simply letting go and yielding to God’s way.
The good news is we still have the authority to decide:
“Truly I tell you, whatever you forbid and declare to be improper and unlawful on earth must be what is already forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit and declare proper and lawful on earth must be what is already permitted in heaven.”
Matthew 18:18 AMPC
By leveraging our authority in addition to the power of prayer, we can unleash heavenly forces to come to our aide.
Wholeness is a decision away for us!
Whatever the challenge, let’s just leave it at the cross.
This process will mean something different from each of us but I want to encourage each of us, today, to spend time to identify that “issue”and then “name it”!
Since we can call the name that is above every name, Jesus, we can bring every issue into captivity and under our feet.
Our decision to do so today shall bring the issue to closure and we can again walk in the abundant life.
“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).”
John 10:10 AMPC
No longer will we be broken and not whole!
In Jesus Name
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
“And God is able to make all grace [every favor and earthly blessing] come in abundance to you, so that you may always [under all circumstances, regardless of the need] have complete sufficiency in everything [being completely self-sufficient in Him], and have an abundance for every good work and act of charity.”
2 Corinthians 9:8 AMP
