You might have been born into a poor family, with a poor education and poor friends in a poor neighborhood, but you do NOT have to stay there! There is no one limiting you. You are not a prisoner of your past, your neighborhood, your status or lack of education. When Christ comes to live in you there is a new power in operation!
Your heart is the spiritual “factory” that creates reality from what is placed in it. Your words are the raw material that faith in your heart goes to work on, creating the world around you. That means you have the power to produce heaven on earth or hell on earth, all by what you are saying!
God has also raised us from the dead with Christ and seated us with Him at God’s right hand. We are far above all power, all authority and all rule, seated at the right hand of God. He put ALL things under Christ’s feet, and that means they’re under OUR feet!
Ask God to help you stay passionate about the right things. God is in you and He dreams with you! Ask Him to direct your steps and your vision. The desires that are in your heart are the desires He puts in you. Why? Because we are in relationship with Him!
If you take a seed from a magnolia tree and plant it in an oak forest, you will still get a magnolia tree regardless of the environment of trees that surround it. The tree is hidden in the seed. God’s seed planted in the hearts of people, wherever they are, will produce God-people!
In the book of Genesis we read about Joseph who experienced the pit, then a prison, and finally the palace. If you can survive the pit and the prison that tries to steal your dreams, you will experience the palace!
If life has taken a major detour to an unwanted destination, I encourage you to open the “Owners Manual” God has given to you in His Word. You’ll find divine destiny that will straighten out your course and expand your horizon!
The record we have of Jesus is just the beginning of His work. You are the continuation. The gospel according to your life can be the story of Jesus working in the 21st century!
Don’t mistake position for calling. We all have the same Savior and the same calling and mission. We’ve all been bought by the same blood and filled with the same Spirit. We have different functions which position us differently in the body, but all are on the same level in God’s eyes. He is the Great Equalizer!
God is for me! Who can be against me? With these words ringing in your ears—I challenge you today to get up and get going—no one else can do it for you! Regardless of how difficult the crisis is that you may be facing, continue on! God will guide you in your everyday affairs. He is committed to you more than you could ever commit to Him!
