Regardless of how high, good or bad your current mountain is...
God is telling us in his word today: MOVE ON!
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
"…you have stayed long enough at this mountain"
Duet 1:6
Let me ask you friends, do you go out each day knowing that favor is already in your future? Or have you gotten stuck in a rut staring at a mountain of disappointment, setbacks or difficulty?
That's what happened to the people of Israel. They were headed toward their promised land. They had big goals and big dreams, but along the way they hit some setbacks and had some disappointments. They got so discouraged that they gave up on their dreams and just settled where they were.
One day God said to them, "You have dwelt long enough on this mountain."
He was saying, "It's time to move past this and embrace the blessing in your future."
Selah people' and friends I believe God is saying that to each one of us today. You've been where you are long enough. God is saying, "This is a new day. Get your fire back. Where you are is not where you're supposed to stay." If you'll be determined to move past your mountain, He will lead you and empower you to live in favor and blessing in every area of your life! It is my prayer for you and for me today that we will set our sights on the next mountain top experience that God has in store for each of us. We serve a mighty God who has great plans for us if we only will have faith and move beyond the place we are now.
OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Heavenly Father, I give to You every area of my heart. I give You my questions, my disappointments, my doubts and fears. I choose to trade my sorrow for Your joy. I choose to press past my mountains so I can embrace the promises You have in store for me. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
