There is a point in life where we must change in every area! God is not going to allow us to sit still, and He will stir up the nest and cause things to prick our side and make us uncomfortable. When we will refuse to move forward, the pricking will cause pain. Is God being mean to do this act? No! He is actually showing grace because he could just let you die in your sins. After death, there is no coming back unless God sees that your heart is willing to change.
Genesis 35:2 Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments.
What garments? The clothing garments and the spiritual garments that none be dirty but pruified to represent the kingdom of God in the earth.
1 Kings 2:15, And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother's: for it was his from the LORD.
Daniel 7:18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
Hallelujah!!! We as the children of God and the brothern of Jesus shall receive all that He has for us!!!
It is far better to allow the pricking in the nest push us to fly! When a baby eagle has been nortured long enough, the mam eagle will begin to put thorns in the nest to prick the baby to get up, get out and fly forward. Much like the baby eagle, we too like to be comfortable, but too much comfort will cause us to get lazy and snuggle in deeper. God knows if we stay too comfortable, we will not fulfill His plans for us, nor reach our destiny. The Lord has to prick us to go forth to save us and fulfill His will in the earth.
God had plans for us before we got here! Jeremiah 1:5, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
It would be a crying shame to have left earth to be present with the Lord and we did nothing for the kingdom. God's grace says, rather than you standing before me empty handed, i will save you from yourself!
God's grace is sufficient unto us! Acts 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Hallelujah!
2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
John 1:16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
1 Corinthians 15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
My God!! This is great news!! Oh how the Lord loves us, and He has given everything we have need of through His son, Christ Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice!! Bless you Lord!!
Let's get busy so we can change and allow God's helping hands to save us from ourselves, that we might be able to live for all of eternity! Glory hallelujah!!
Listen to this song and be encourage to change for the kingdom and souls sake. Amen
