God is with us to make a move and a way

The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights. Habakkuk 3:19

This morning’s passage from “Daily Strength for Women” is called “Feeling Stuck”. The passage says, “Maybe we feel stuck in our everyday lives. A job that doesn't utilize our gifts, a relationship that's more take than give, a habit that's edging toward addiction…. There is a direction to turn when circumstances have you feeling boxed in. Turn your face toward the Lord; let him fill you with the strength to move.” Just last night I wrote in my journal that align with this message, and one thing I have learned on my spiritual JOurneY is to give whatever is bothering me to Christ. Whether you write it down, speak it out loud, or give it to Him in your prayers, let it BE known to Him, even though He already knows your thoughts. We cannot heal until we REveal, and acknowledging a matter is the first step to change. Now that we’ve acknowledged a matter, we must REmember faith without works is dead (James 2:26). May we work to take steps to where He needs us to BE. If we’ll take one He’ll lead us on.

Matthew 17

Let us REmember as spoken by the Father in Matthew 17:20, “…if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Reflection from Hello Beautiful by Kara Barker

This morning’s message from Kara Barker is “You Have Been Rescued, Redeemed, Restored, and Forgiven”. She says, “By God’s grace, love, and mercy we have been totally redeemed.… All that is required of you is to believe, trust, and open your heart to God and live today. Live in the constant communion that God desires with you- and your days will become filled with life-giving transformation and freedom that comes from living in the light of your present redemption.” Did you REad that? Nothing hard is REquired of us by Christ, but we have to LIVE—live in the moment with no REgrets. When we live we allow ourselves to BE—sometimes still and sometimes in motion, but always governed by what the Father leads us to do. Live this day and each day FREE and REdeemed.

Revelation 3:20

The Father is always near. Let us listen for His signal and welcome Him to share in all aspects of our lives.

God is with us to make a move and a way, my friend.
