MOVE FORWARD!!!

Philippians 3:12-14  The Message (MSG)  I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me.Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I'm off and running and I'm not turning back.


Greetings people of God. MOVE FORWARD! MOVE FORWARD! MOVE FORWARD!

It is easy to look back, to wish for times in the past, and often people in our past.  But if we are not careful, we can end up reliving our past. Understand - there is no way we can move into our future, looking backward. Our footsteps will naturally follow the line of sight we set with our eyes. Look FORWARD people of God.  We ought to always be moving, always growing, going through, never getting stuck!.  



Satan’s desire is to have us stagnant, to have us so weighted down by cares of the world and its adversities (unfortunate events or incidents) that we become immobile.   Don’t fall for it.  We’ve come too far to turn back.  God has been Faithful all this time...and He has not changed.

Can we purpose ourselves this week to focus on our future, to be reminded of God’s promises to us? I believe if we look around this week, He will provide some very present reminders of how He has not forgotten us. Let’s do it, let’s re-activate our FAITH.  Let’s do like our great forefather Abraham.  I leave you with what the Word of God testifies of him.  Blessings!


Romans 4:17 -18  The Message (MSG)
We call Abraham "father" not because he got God's attention by living like a saint, but because God made something out of Abraham when he was a nobody. Isn't that what we've always read in Scripture, God saying to Abraham,"I set you up as father of many peoples"? Abraham was first named"father" and then became a father because he dared to trust God to do what only God could do: raise the dead to life, with a word make something out of nothing. When everything was hopeless, Abraham believed anyway, deciding to live not on the basis of what he saw he couldn't do but on what God said he would do. And so he was made father of a multitude of peoples…

Consistency is the Key!

King James 2000 Bible (©2003)
Galatians6:9
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap,
if we faint not.

There is a Blessing in being consistent. Often we work and move at
extremes. You know, either all, or nothing. On this journey, we cannot
allow weariness, busyness, or disappointments to cause us to bring a
halt to what God has destined for our lives. Even when we cannot run at
our usual 100%, consistency means that are still making even one small
step daily toward our goal.

This week, whether your money is short, your time is short, or your
energy is short... press your way to spend some measure of time with
God, and some measure of time working on that dream in your heart.
Every little step you take makes a difference, it is a seed your are
sowing - plant it - and then ask God to multiply and add the increase.

Be encouraged Saints!

No Access!

I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me Philippians 4:13


Paul was imprisoned when he wrote this letter to the church at Philippi. It is interesting, that he wrote to encourage them, for he was the one who was in chains! We all know that Paul faced many, many hardships, however - he was determined that no hardship would rob him of his Joy, and that he would surely finish the race God had for him to run. That Joy, was the Joy of his salvation by Jesus Christ, the Joy of the Gospel. That Joy, he held way deep down on the inside, where the enemy - through various situations and circumstances - could have NO ACCESS to it, and thus, to him.


The word for this week is very simple. We will experience hard times, challenges, setbacks, and disappointments along our journey. We will at times wonder if we are headed in the right direction, because the road we are on is so rough, and there are so many roadblocks. BUT GOD. His promise to us, as it was to Joshua, in Joshua 1:5 is this... No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live. For I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will not fail you or abandon you.


God is not a man, that He should lie. He will do what He said He would do. And you, you can make it. Regardless of what you may be experiencing at this time, give the enemy NO ACCESS to your Joy! Regardless of how difficult things may seem at the moment, know that you can do it, for YOU can do all things through Christ who strengthens you! Now. Lets keep it moving people of God. There is work for us to do. AMEN.
