If we listen to parents, often they will say, “I want my kids to have everything that I didn’t.” Parents want to give their kids everything, just as God wants to do for us. Abraham gave Isaac all that he had, but before he did so, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent those sons away from Isaac. (Genesis 25:5-6) When God takes us to a new level, he must separate us.
Sometimes We Need To Be Separated As We Move To The Next Level
If Abraham had allowed his other sons to stay local, they would have been jealous of Isaac. Abraham had to separate Isaac from the people who might try to steal his promise. God is always calibrating and blessing us. During this process, the people who start with us will sometimes be taken away. The people who start with us won’t necessarily finish with us.
The Enemy Is Afraid Of What God Is Doing In Us Today!
What God is doing in us right now is so big and so great that the enemy is afraid. March out into the world and say, “THIS is the promise on my life!” We must know that with the root (the word) inside of us we will produce fruit in old age. Ask God for the root over the fruit!
