DON'T SETTLE FOR LESS
We are living in a time that
the kingdom of darkness appears to be prevailing but the truth is that
the people of God are rising up and taking their rightful position. We
are in a time in history when things are accelerating at a rapid pace in
the natural as well as the spiritual realm. It is crucial that we make
the right choices today for our future. As many of you are crossing over
into the destiny that has been assigned to you, don't settle for less
than Gods plan for your life. His plans for you are beyond your human
comprehension. Many of you think that you are not able to accomplish
what He has called you to do. When Jesus does something with a mortal
man or woman it is something phenomenal that cannot be achieved in the
natural. If He has called you to something beyond your natural
capabilities He will also equip you to do it. Gods qualifications are
not the same as mans. You can't understand the ways of God with your
natural mind. Someone once said: You know your mind's renewed when the
impossible looks logical.
1 Corinthians 2: 14
But the natural
man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are
foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually
discerned.
When you have a personal relationship
with Jesus, you don't have to strive to hear His voice. You will
naturally walk with Him just as Enoch did when he was taken up. Some of
you will also have spiritual encounters where He will show you heavenly
things.
There was a man in the bible named Gideon. Although Gideon was a
man with a great calling on his life he was actually very insecure and
fearful in the natural. One day he was beating out wheat in a winepress
in order to hide it from the Midianites. The Lord sent an angel to him
and the angel referred to Gideon as a mighty man of valor. Gideon was
called to deliver Israel from the Midianites. He asked the angel for a
sign and the angel did this by consuming the meat that Gideon offered
with fire. The angel then disappeared. Gideon realized that it was an
angel sent by the Lord. This encounter changed his life and Gods plan
was accomplished because Gideon simply obeyed what he was called to do.
Judges 6: 11 - 12
Now the Angel of the Lord came and sat under
the terebinth tree which was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the
Abiezrite, while his son Gideon threshed wheat in the winepress, in
order to hide it from the Midianites. And the Angel of the Lord appeared
to him, and said to him, "The Lord is with you, you mighty man of
valor!"
The
Lord says; forget the former things, don't dwell on the past. Don't
settle for less than the calling that I have for you because this is the
time to advance into your destiny. I have great plans for you beyond
your natural reasoning. Don't look at your situations in the natural
because I Am the God of the supernatural. As you follow My plan and My
leading you will be able to accomplish all that I have set out for you
to do. Do not fear because I will be with you and equip you. Just as I
sent the angel to Gideon with a message, I say the same to you; "Rise up
you mighty man/ woman of valor and carry out the assignment that I have
for you".
Don't be intimidated by the mountains,
giants and armies ahead of you because I have already made a way out for
you. I have enabled you to be more than a conqueror. I
have placed My word in your mouth and I have given you my cloak of
authority. Don't compromise what I have imparted to you. Don't settle
for less than the high calling that I have for you but trust in Me to
bring it to pass says the Lord
1 Thessalonians 5: 24
He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.
