BREAKOUT POSITIVE THOUGHTS. 728 . ( Less is Greater, Greater is less )

“Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled;”

We each have a responsibility to keep in our own lane and get on with what God has called us to do. There is freedom birthed in gratitude of knowing what we have been entrusted with and then stewarding that well and being busy like an ant with our own particular delegation.

“Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.”

The emerging church has the requirement that we stop abdicating, grow up, mature and act in our assignment that God has given us.

God is our provider and we lack nothing for His perfect will to be performed.

We are not lacking if we are rooted in Him and have the mindset of trusting Him to be in control and we can draw from His source without feeling any dissatisfaction.

To be dissatisfied or covetous of others is to exhibit a mindset of lack.

God is generous and abundant in His perfect provision for each of us according to our need.

To be judgemental, competitive or dissatisfied belies the trust and belief we have in His wisdom and knowledge and the false entitlement that we think is denied us.

Having said that it appears we are in a season where he is expanding and increasing our capacity.

Casting His eyes to and fro to see who has stewarded well and be trusted with more and who can carry the weight of His glory.

“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward him. You have done foolishly in this, for from now on you will have wars.””

Many of us may feel or have felt that we have been under attack from the enemy and that would be a positive indicator that he is in fear of our success in the kingdom and God is giving us opportunity to overcome and to hold more of Him who is already victorious.

The battle is not evenly stacked because Jesus has already defeated satan at the resurrection.

‭‭ “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.”

Our challenges take us to the next level and transform us more into Jesus’ image. The power is increasingly removed from the enemy.

God is raising us to be able to deal with principalities, providing us with the knowledge of what we have to expect, empowering us at exactly the right time and resourcing our provision to have dominion.

We are equipped to occupy and establish and push back and take dominion.

“Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.””

The illustration shows us rooted in Christ, the source of all we require to carry our anointing, gifting, capacity to carry His glory into the world so that all might know of Him and in that revelation and light the darkness is pushed back.

Five Scriptures that come to mind:

“Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.” Proverbs‬ ‭6‬:‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭18‬ ‭ESV‬‬
