“Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:13-14)
The enemy will do anything he can to keep us dwelling on the past — but Jesus is calling us FORWARD and UPWARD to our true destiny! And this destiny is often something we must fight for (in our thoughts and emotions) and choose daily. BUT IT IS SO WORTH IT!!!
“So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.” (Hebrews 10:35-36)
This concept just keeps coming back to me. To persevere. And to persevere is often a severe action and heart focus and mindset. In some ways, such a foreign word to our culture. But absolutely necessary for spiritual victory.
Don’t trade your calling from God for ANYTHING!
Don’t allow the vision He has given you to be hijacked by the busy-ness and trivia of the world and the path of least resistance!
Return to your First Love — and to the adventure of Love He has called you to!
Don’t let the Flame go out! Rage, rage, against the dying of the Light!
