Victrory Sweet Victory
fighting words. His faith is increased from this battle plan there will be victory each time.
Tell God of the situation, talk to God, praise Him and then declare what is going to happen by remembering what God has done before.
Talking God’s ear off with the problem or need doesn’t move Him, God already has a plan before you spoke and His plan is for deliverance. God isn’t surprised when the enemy lashes out and neither should we. Our part in the Lord’s battle is to focus on Him and His mighty power, worshipping Him, giving praises for the manifestation of His remedies and listen for a word or direction from Him.
Take your dreams, desires, visions, right now today and work them into reality. By faith in God they will become visible. August is going to happen, but we have to start today, putting off by killing your time will end in nothing.
Ecclesiastes 11:4 (Living Bible says, “If you wait for perfect conditions, you will never get anything done.”)
The first step to procrastination is to eliminate all the reasons and excuses for not taking immediate action. We are moving forward. This baby is coming. Let’s not make the mistake of making the main goal to keep busy, that’s a trap. What is more important than busy is, are we progressing. It’s activity versus accomplishment.
John Henry Fabre did a study of the processionary caterpillars. You know the ones that follow each other in a line, head to tail. Well, he took agroup of them and put them in a circle. They stayed in that circle, round and round they went. Then he placed some water and pine needles, their favorite food, in a saucer in the middle of the circle. The just kept going round and round eventually starving to death with their favorite food two inches away. Busy, busy, busy caterpillars, never accomplishing anything, just doing the same thing over and over.
They confused activity with accomplishment.
All this to say, Christians need to be accomplishing great things for God. After all, He did invest His Son and Spirit into us to do just that, accomplish great things not just talking about them.
Noise produces nothing. Often times a hen will cackle after laying an egg even if it was an asteroid.
We need to be like the Apostles, they weren’t known for policies, procedures, theories or excuses. They are known for their acts. Some people say, “I’m waiting on God.” reality is, God is waiting on them.
Psalm 31:15
The cost of growth is always less than the cost of stagnation and the only thing necessary for evil to win is good people do nothing. The longer we take to act on God’s direction, the less clear it will become. Procrastination, a marvelous tool of the enemy, holds us back form the blessings God has because we miss God’s timing.
Proverbs 21:25
Try to remember, everyday, excuses for delay keep the answers away. And don’t forget this, even when we see someone who appears to be successful, isn’t always the case because the adage is, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
It’s time to life the life you’ve wanted.
It’s time to let the Lord have His battle.
It’s time to rise from prayer and enter praise.
It’s time to move forward and leave excuses in the dust.
It’s time to admit we are dependant upon God.
II Chronicles 20:12
We can’t solve the problem, God can.
We can’t make August happen, but God can.
We can become united, use
