I'm noticing a pattern in my life ...letting go of control. I am bit of a control freak. I have learned over the years to let go and leave it to God! Sometimes that is easier said than done. Sometimes I think I did it just to turn around in a situation and see my hand is manipulating it- CRAZY, I know!
The Messenger on February 3, 2019, spoke on "Enlarging Your Tents" and reference Isaiah 54: 2&3. I had to read it walk away, read it again.....lay down, and read it once more. What I keep coming back to is expanding your mindset; leave room for growth and possibilities. STREEEEEETCH...it won't be comfortable or convenient but it is necessary.
We need to have the ability to receive another idea or approach.
We need to be absorb the idea or the approach. Don't let something you just heard be a "feel good" message/advice and then later forget what convicted or opened your eyes.
We need to expand our thinking. How far you go depends on what you are willing to surrender.
Surrender, don't just sing about it...Be about it! Let go of the doubt and fear! Walk by faith! Tell your flesh you loss nothing because life on earth is temporal but life afterwards is eternal. If I had to define surrender it would be releasing your flesh like thought and actions, trusting God has knows what is best for you.
The expansion of your tents depends on what you do, what you choose, and what you think...Don't feel...BELIEVE!
Prayer: I pray right now our mindset gets cleansed we move to the right and left ready to expand our tents and embrace the goodness of God. Thank you God for having favor on us to receive your Blessings in due season will reap the mana and glorify your Name forever more.
Always with Love
A.P.E.P.
Letting go of control is something that I am working on as well. I pray all the time for God to help me see the error of my ways.
