Go Forward!

                   


"If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small" (Proverbs 24:10).

I remember the account in the Bible when the people of Israel were caught up in the middle of the road. The option of going backward or forward wasn't a better one. Going forward meant getting drowned in the red sea, and going backward meant being captured by the Egyptian army. Amidst the challenge, Moses inquired of the Lord. Surprisingly, when God's Word came, it said, "Go forward". This is what God expects of us, to keep winning, even amidst fierce opposition. Whatever challenges we may face, God expects that we rise above them and succeed. Why? Because greater is He that is in you, than any opposition that may come your way. (1 John 4:4 paraphrased)

If you are challenged, identify the problem and then take a logical approach to tackle it. Instead of complaining like the Israelites, we should be like Moses who was able to identify the problem and take the logical approach to solve it. Moses understood that the challenge was fear so he dealt with it by bringing a word of encouragement to the people, "And Moses said unto the people, fear ye not, stand still and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you this day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more forever" (Exodus 14:13). He also took a logical approach by crying unto the Lord,  "And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward" (Exodus  14:15)

Move On

" ...: _but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward calling of God in Christ Jesus_ ". Philippians 3:13-14 The past is always going to be the way it was, so stop trying to change it. Your future contains more happiness than any past you remember. Believe strongly that the best is yet to come. Today we remember Paul more as an Apostle of Christ than a persecutor of Christians. He never had the opportunity to be with Jesus physically but he had more revelation of Him than the other Apostle that was with Jesus. He was never ashamed and went about preaching the Gospel of Christ. Each time he remembers his past, he will try to forget and move on. "... this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind..." (Philippians 3:13-14). God through Apostle Paul performs great miracles. God is very good at changing ugly situations to pleasant situations if you believe He can do...

Break Away From Consumer Mentality

"And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities." (Luke 19:17).  If you keep consuming everything without producing anything, you will have nothing to fall back on. Immediate gratification creates poverty or lack in the future. Short-term thinking and living for today is the bane of many individuals but long-term thinking will help you to imbibe a producer mentality. An investment mentality is a way of thinking that supports thoughts and behaviors directed at achieving wealth. It compels you to automatically think about, recognize and take advantage of wealth-building opportunities. It also drives you to structure your lifestyles to preserve and continue to grow the wealth you have created. Helpful Topics:  If your mind is concerned with the acquisition of liabilities, then you are missing out. You must let go of your consumer mentality through delayed gratification if you want to rise fina...
