When does morning come? That is the question many ask. They forget what is said before it. All they want to know is this, when is morning coming? When will the suffering be over? When will the pain cease? When will the heartache be gone? When? You are going to have to go through something to get to the joy.
Every day it seems like I am adding something else to the plate. I said God I need help with this. I am feeling very overwhelmed God. I need help with narrowing things down. I need help with prioritizing and then just basically motivating myself to do it. Because let’s face it, God, there are times I want to say that’s it. I am not doing anything else. I’m tired. I’m over it. I’m done. But you can’t do that, you must find a way to keep it moving. And that is why I called on God, my Heavenly Father. I needed His help. I needed His guidance. But what I received as a response was not what I was expecting.
Stop casting out your net and coming up empty. Cast out your net and receive all that I have for you. Cast out your net and speak God's Word over your life. Cast out your net and take God at His Word. Cast out your net and walk in your healing. Cast out your net and walk in your breakthrough. Cast out your net. God is saying try me, TRUST ME. Cast out your net.
How many of you are sitting on gifts that God has blessed you with? You are sitting on talents that could bless someone else. You have been given a dream and instead of making a move, you leave it at just that…a dream. How many of you are sitting there doing nothing?
What is faith in action? Many do not know what that means. You must live what you believe. You have to believe without seeing. It is knowing that God is going to answer your prayer.
The one asking the question is God. He wants to know DO YOU LOVE HIM? If God was standing in front of you today and asked you that question what would your response be? Would He be able to see it?
Who's on your boat? Many believers do not realize that you cannot have everybody on your boat. You need to be careful who you let on your boat. Everybody is not for you, and nobody is going to have your back when things get tough or out of control. So, who is on your boat?
To rise up above your situation requires faith “ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1 What are you hoping for? What are you waiting for? What are you expecting to happen? While you are waiting for it to manifest act as if you have it already. Start making preparations for it I don’t see it but I believe it will happen. I don’t understand it but I know it’s going to work out for my good. When will you rise up above your situation? How long will you sit there? How long will you wait for someone to come and rescue you? How long will you feel sorry for yourself? How long will you blame others? When God has already given us the power to rise up. Can you imagine? You are in service and someone you have known for years of being lame and now they are instantly healed. For years of wanting to be healed, years of being rejected, years of not knowing who you are, years of living in confusion, years of living in rebellion, years of not knowing your purpose, you messed up, get over yourself. It’s time out for excuses. God knew it was going to happen, God knows what you were going to do or have done. It’s over; now rise up!
If His eye is on the sparrow, why are we feeling discouraged? Why are we feeling lonely? Why are many of us walking around here saying I don’t know what I will do. How am I going to make it? How can I pay the mortgage? How am I going to pay the bills? How am I going to fix my marriage? What stands out in those statements is “I”. What am “I” going to do? If His eye is on the sparrow, then what are you worried about? His eye is on the sparrow.
You are in the middle of the sea, and the ship that represents your life is being tossed and turned. You are going through a turbulent storm. The storm could be your marriage. The storm could be losing your job. The storm could be financial struggles. The storm could be that child that is not acting right. The storm could be grief, you just lost a loved one. Whatever your storm is, God is saying I got you. Just grab hold of one of the broken pieces. I will pull you safely to shore.
