Be Encouraged!
Beloved, be encouraged to have honest conversations with GOD, yourself and others.
Get rid of distractions, those things that hinder you, that waste your time, that cause you to doubt and delay. Examine the clutter in your life, in your space, in your mind, and in your spirit -- recognize it there to trip you up, to delay your destiny, to hinder your progress.
Will you let it hinder?
ABBA reminds each one of us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made by HIM -- HE has given us purpose because HE has a good, I dare say, great plan for our lives -- will we seek HIS way and HIS wisdom first.
Will we follow HIM completely?
Proverbs 14:1–2 (CEV) -- 1 A woman’s family is held together by her wisdom, but it can be
destroyed by her foolishness. 2 By
living right, you show that you respect the Lord; by being deceitful, you show
that you despise him.
Jeremiah 29:11–13 (NLT) -- 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are
plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In those days when you pray, I will
listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly,
you will find me.
Galatians 5:22–25 (TPT) -- 22 But the fruit produced by the Holy Spirit within you is divine love in all its varied expressions: joy that overflows, peace that subdues, patience that endures, kindness in action, a life full of virtue, faith that prevails, 23 gentleness of heart, and strength of spirit. Never set the law above these qualities, for they are meant to be limitless. 24 Keep
in mind that we who belong to Jesus, the Anointed One, have already
experienced crucifixion. For everything connected with our self-life was
put to death on the cross and crucified with Messiah. 25 We must live in the Holy Spirit and follow after him.
Ephesians 5:16 (TPT) -- 15 So be very careful how you live, not being like those with no
understanding, but live honorably with true wisdom, for we are living in evil
times. Take full advantage of every day as you spend your life for his
purposes.
Galatians 5:1 (TPT) -- 1 Let me be clear, the Anointed One has set us free—not partially,
but completely and wonderfully free! We must always cherish this truth and
stubbornly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.
Proverbs 30:5 (TPT) -- 5 Every promise from the faithful God is pure and proves to be true.
He is a wrap-around shield of protection for all his lovers who run to hide in
him.
