May the Father work us into witnesses for Him

“I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course” Jeremiah 10:23

There are so many of us who sit and wonder about how things could BE, failing to let go and take bold steps in life for ourselves for fear of the unknown and what others might think. Osteen speaks this morning to Jeremiah 10:23 which says, “I know, Lord, that our lives are not our own. We are not able to plan our own course” (NLT). Osteen says, “Just because you don’t have all the answers, and just because you’re uncomfortable doesn’t mean you are not supposed to takes steps into the unknown…. Every step you’ll not only have God’s blessing; you’ll be growing and getting stronger.” We can do our own thing and stay paused in comfort, fearing the unknown, or walk in faith and REceive provision for every step God has planned for our lives. I don’t know about you, but I’m faithing it until I make it to where He desires for me to BE.

Numbers 33

As in Numbers 33:54-56, Our Father has portions of all that is His that He wants to give to us, but we must BE steadfast, working to REmove those from our lives who are harmful to us or could BE detrimental to our lives. Let us not BE guilty by association in comfort, but let us take bold steps in Christ to REap His REwards for our faithfulness.

REflection from Promises for Your Everyday Life

We all are guilty of complaining about something. This morning Joyce Meyer informs us that complaining is a sin, in which she REferences Ephesians 4:29, where the apostle Paul instructs us not to use any foul or polluting language. The antidote, she states, is thanksgiving. “Truly thankful people do not complain. They are too busy being grateful for all the good things they have that they have no time to notice the things they could complain about.” Let us continue to work to capture every thought. When we have an urge to complain, let us think and give thanks for all the things, no matter how large or small we should BE thankful for, to cancel out that one thing that probably doesn’t matter at all.

Isaiah 64:8

May the Father shape, mold, set us on fire, and even break us so that we BEcome who He desires us to BE. 🙏🏽💚🦋🌈

May the Father work us into witnesses for Him this Wednesday, my friend.
