Today, you may find yourself facing unique situations unlike ever before. As a matter of fact, what you’re going thru is new, it’s different and the situations in your life seem out of place. You don’t understand it. Your mind and your emotions are running wild. You’re confused, not knowing what to do.
The storm that has hit your life has shaken you to the very core of your being. What you have experienced is a physical and emotional earthquake.
Psalm 109:23 I fade away like an evening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.
The locust represents your sinful nature. Your sinful nature keeps trying to revive itself. It is getting in the way of your blessing, of your inheritance, your reward, your break thru, your deliverance, your healing and the desires of your heart.
When that locust, that sinful nature, is on you; you need to shake it off because it doesn’t belong there. Your sinful desire, that temptation, the issues that keep bringing up those thoughts, they don’t belong there.
Romans 8:5 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.
Let me ask you, what is your mind set on today?
Let me tell you, God is shaking things (your sinful nature) loose. God is shaking it loose!
Hallelujah!
Your job, today, is to resist the enemy within.
James 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
During this shaking God will reveal those places of offense, those things that grieve His Spirit (your disobedience, your anger, your pride, your hurts, your pain, your un-forgiveness). He will reveal your poor attitude (negative thoughts, double-mindedness worries and doubts) and moral issues (ethics, principles). He will show you the point of your rebellion.
He’s shaking it loose because that is the process God is using to bring about a transformation in you. Why? Because, He is preparing you for kingdom work and The Kingdom of Heaven. Those things which are not allowed in Heaven must be shaken loose here on earth. He is shaking it loose because that’s the process you have to go through to get into where you need to be; at the right hand of God in Christ Jesus!
The shaking has overwhelmed you with fear and doubts. Now you have these confusing thoughts that are trying to lead you astray from the path God planned for you. You’ve gotten to the point that your doubt is causing you to murmur and complain and even question God.
You’re struggling with your faith.
Hebrews 11:1 Now, faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Just like you, King David, was overwhelmed too.
Psalm 13:1-2 How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
You find yourself walking around with no direction kind of like the children of Israel. You’re feeling angry and frustrated. You’re feeling unfulfilled and guilty because you wrongly responded to situations in your life and made bad decisions.
ENOUGH!!
It’s time to grow up now.
Stop the sinful nature of feeling trapped and down. Shake it off!! The past is behind you and it’s time to press forward and begin to make things right according to God’s Word.
Proverbs 11:6 The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the unfaithful are trapped by their evil desires.
It would benefit you to consider carefully the choices you are facing now based on what you love the most, the Word of God.
Psalm 119:127-128 Because I love your commands more than gold, more than pure gold, and because I consider all your precepts right, I hate every wrong path.
It’s time you seek Him for wisdom and direction. Seek God, not man.
James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.
Isaiah 2:22 Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?
I have learned this, “Many times the most favorable option will not necessarily be the most logical according to your natural circumstances”. Follow the Holy Spirit that lives inside of you.
Trust that what God is shaking loose is not fitting for your use nor is it for you any longer. Let it go, let him go, let her go, whatever it is let it go!! Take your hands off and let God do his perfect work.
He’s shaking it loose to fulfill His purpose, His perfect will for your life. You might not understand why He does what He does, but like me you need to trust Him today.
You’re confession today should be, “He’s doing a new thing! To God be the Glory, Hallelujah!! “
May God bless you,
