The Holy Spirit is really showing me, that I need to PRESS ON!!!
Phillipians 3:12 says: Not that I have already attained all of this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that which Christ took hold of me.
Why did Jesus take hold of me? Well there are a host of reasons - not the least of which is to redeem me to God the Father.
But today, I want to talk about the fact that He took hold of me so that I could live in VICTORY!
I need to re-train my mind, in order to press on. I too often get caught up thinking about the past and my failures. Worrying about the future. Dwelling on my weaknesses. Fill in the blank _____________
That is NOT why Christ layed hold of me!
I purpose to set my mind on whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - I will think on such things!
Christ lives in me! Not the evil one - he may mess with my mind - but I don't have to accept his impressions of who I am, or where my life is going!
God has a plan for my life! He will prosper me! He gives me HOPE - He has my future in the palm of His hand!
My friend - He wants to be your REDEEMER as well! Your VICTORY! He loves you and your name is written on the palm of His hand, if you have asked Him in to your heart. Walk in His glory today....knowing you are PRESSING ON~
