Don't Let Life Direct Your Path....

Don't allow the situations and circumstances of life to dictate your direction.   God never said it was going to be an easy road to travel.   But He did say that He would be with you.   

Sometimes on our path of life we encounter debris.   Debris is the remains of something that has been broken up or destroyed.   The question is will we allow the debris to be a stumbling block in our lives?   A contractor can construct the most beautiful building, but after the construction process is complete there is still debris that needs to be cleaned up.   That is how our lives are.   

As we follow God, we see different things in our lives that still needs to be removed.   Debris.   The remains of the past.   Some of which we have held on to intentionally and some of which we didn't realize was still there.    All of these things that still remain show up at some time or another on our path of destiny.   When we encounter things that still need to be removed from our lives we need to begin to purge our lives.   Get rid of these things through prayer, through fasting, through the word.   We can't continue to overlook blockades and hindrances in our lives.   Hindrances are designed to do just that... "HINDER" you from getting to your destiny.  

We tend to be a people of avoidance.   Instead of seeking God's direction on what we need to do when we encounter "stuff" in our lives, we take the pathway of avoidance.   Or we find alternate routes....not understanding that the alternates routes just prolong the process and eventually lead us right back to the same path that God placed us on.  

We have to understand that God is Alpha and Omega (the beginning and the end).   Life exists within Him. Anything outside of God is death.  He knows where He is taking us because He knows what is in us that needs to come out.  He did not call us to walk the path of least resistance.   He called us to be overcomers.

Have faith that He knows the direction He is taking you and when you get there....you will be like pure gold.

What Do You Do When You Are Not Sure What To Do?

In the midst of all the trials that come with life, what do you do when you don’t know what to do?   Do you quit?   Do you give in?   Do you...
