If we are going to get ahead and get out of whatever cycle we are in then, we need a checkup from the neck up. We need to realize that the battlefield is in our mind. How often do we create our storm and then complain when it rains? We KNOW we aren’t supposed to go into business with that person or we aren’t supposed to be with that person, yet we still choose it. If we do get into agreement with God, he WILL destroy this yoke!
And it shall come to pass that when you become restless, you shall break his yoke from your neck. (Genesis 27:40)
We Have To Stop Being Comfortable With Our Yoke
The problems we have in this world are not in our toe or elbow but our head. The yokes we carry restrict our thinking and are not comfortable. God wants to stretch our thinking. He wants to get us uncomfortable with where we are so that we will step out of our comfort zone and into what he has placed in our hearts.
Before God Can Do Something With Us, He Has To Do Something In Us
We have to get the focus off of the past and the thinking that it will always be THIS way. That the situation we are in is normal and will never change. That repetitive thinking that drags us down such as:
You’d have been married by now.
You’d have been running that business by now.
You’d have been out of debt by now.
You’d have lost the weight by now.
NOW is the moment that matters!
Stop wondering, wavering and waiting, NOW is full of opportunity! God is in this moment walking with us. Let’s include him, let’s act on what he has placed in our heart, and make a new decision today. I encourage you to start doing that today because this is the year to ADVANCE!
