Let’s recap
yesterday’s devotional. Never forget: Your opportunity-of-a-lifetime only
takes place during the lifetime-of-the-opportunity. Your God given assignment
has a shelf life. As Kingdom Kids, our mandate is to seize GOD-GIVEN
MOMENTS (vision, assignment, anointing) in OUR SEASONS. TIMING IS KEY!
Occasionally, God moves us out of comfort zones and changes our seasons.
A blessed man inevitably “brings forth fruit IN HIS SEASON.” (Psalm 1:3)
Historically, God chooses human agents to give voice to revelation and
redirection, so (whenever we hear His voice) we must resist the tendency to
become stuck either in our failures or our successes. As the main
character in “Field of Dreams” eventually discovered, if one is sufficiently
courageous to step out (even alone) and heed God’s call for directional change,
it can and will happen for YOU.
In other words, “IF YOU BUILD IT…THEY WILL COME.”
You will never align
with God’s great expectations if you are passively rest on your ‘brains,’ i.e.
your rational mind and sensory perceptions. (Jeremiah 29:11) Forget what
you now see or feel; embrace whatever God declares. “This is the victory
that overcomes the world, even our faith.” (I John 5:4) And this victory
is coming to and through you at the speed of “light” via “an open door” that
“no man can shut.” (John 8:12 – Revelation 3:8) Let’s consider another
Newtonian law of motion: “For every action, there is a reaction, equal and
opposite in direction.” Although God has set before you an open door, His
Word informs us that every open door brings immediate and forceful
opposition. Nevertheless, your enemy can ‘show-up’ all he wants to for he
can never ‘shut-up’ what God has decided to ‘open-up!’ The enemy of your
soul (and his human agents) appear as blessings-blockers, with the intent of
moving you away from faith and toward fear. However, on such occasions THE WORD ‘shows-up’ to ‘bust-up’
every blessing-blocker as The Lord of Hosts declares with power: “No weapon
that is formed against you shall prosper; and every tongue that rises against you
in judgment, you shall condemn.” (Isaiah 54:17) His Word declares that
this phenomenal level of victory is the heritage of the servants of the Lord!
Who are you? You
are a WINNER-BELIEVER who consistently prevails in the face of insurmountable
and overwhelming opposition. (I John 4:4) You are ‘the anointed one’
of THE ANOINTED ONE –
and there is absolutely no failure in
HIM. (I John 4:17 – Matthew 16:16-19 – Philippians 4:13) So,
believer, here is what you must do: 1) Stop doubting God; 2) Stop minimizing
His power; and, 3) Stop reading ‘the majority report’ about your past, present,
or future. For if you keep seeing yourself through the eyes of enemies,
you will become a victim of THE
GRASSHOPPER COMPLEX and never dare to take bold steps toward whatever
GOD has conceived and breathed into your spirit! (Numbers 13:33)
My advice: TAKE GOD
OUT OF THE BOX! He is far greater than any situation or satanic force you
will ever encounter! (Exodus 1:7 – Ephesians 3:20) I love what Daniel and
Paul declare about the resident power and authority that resides in KNOWING HIM! (Daniel 11:32 –
Philippians 3:10) Believe HIS WORD! Meditate on it! Stand
upon it! Declare it! WE WILL DO GREATER AND GREATER
EXPLOITS…BECAUSE WE KNOW HIM…AND WE ARE KNOWN BY HIM!
Whenever we take God
out of the powerless box of ‘limiting traditionalism’ and ‘carnal imagination’
(a.k.a. stinkin’-thinkin’), we achieve OUR MAXIMUM MOMENTUM! According to
the science of physics, MOMENTUM is a property of a MOVING BODY. In the
natural realm, MOMENTUM is measured by the length of time required to STOP a
moving body once it is under the action of a constant force. In the
spiritual realm, once we come under DIVINE
FORCE, i.e. christ’s
WORD-OF-FAITH-IN-ACTION, there is absolutely nothing that can stop or
reverse anything that GOD has spoken and seeded within our lives!
How so? Because
at the end of the day, neither our hopes, our families, our ministries, our
futures (nor nothing else that pertains to us) is tied to any external
circumstances. For “IN HIM…WE LIVE!
IN HIM…WE MOVE! IN HIM…WE HAVE OUR BEING! (Acts 17:28)
Nothing can stop us now – because the God who inhabits eternity and
executes in time has established THIS MOMENT. And HE ordained OUR MOMENTUM – before the very
foundation of this world. So we must and shall stop magnifying our challenges
with our natural minds and mouths. We
will DECLARE DIVINE MOMENTUM in and over our lives. Job 22:28 says, “You
will decree a thing, and it shall be established unto you: and the light (THE
LIGHT OF THE WORLD) shall shine upon all your ways.” HALLELUJAH…WE are heirs and joint-heirs of ‘his
majesty’ and our kingdom legacy of spiritual MOMENTUM!
Sisters and brothers,
be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO
MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
