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)

Think Big

. 'For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he...' Proverb 23:4 Limited thinking prevents one from progressing. A man went fishing and each time he caught a big fish, he threw it back into the water and kept the smaller ones. When confronted, he said his frying pan was a small one and couldn't contain the bigger fish. He couldn't think of something else to do with the bigger fish. That is limited thinking. When a small idea gets into a big mind, it can produce enormous results, but if a great idea gets into a small mind, the idea will be reduced to the size of the mind. Related Topic: Have a Wealthy Mentality A shallow thinker seldom makes a deep impression. Only a person who sees the invisible can do the impossible. God gave us the world unfinished so that we might share in the joy and satisfaction of creation. Creativity has been built into every one of us; it's part of our design. Each of us lives less of the life God intended for us when we...

      Don't Relent On Your Prayers "After this manner, therefore, pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name." (Matthew 6:9) The child's mind is unwaved towards his parent. When you take your child to the school, he stays there with the faith that you will come back and pick him up after school. The child depends on and trusts his parents. If God is your Father which I trust He is, then depend and trust in Him. 'For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong on the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him...' (2Chronicles 16:9).
