Your Current Focus

The Lord says, “Do not get weary in well doing, My beloved. You will see the fulfillment and the fullness of My promises for you if you do not faint. I am encouraging you to persevere, endure, persist and press! Remain steadfast and do not give up. Take a breather if you must, but get back up and go again.

This is a time when you must persevere and keep your eyes on the prize. Not the object or the thing, even the goal, but keep your eyes on Me. I AM the ultimate prize and reward.

Deception is extremely prevalent and at very high levels in the earth in these times and can be very subtle; should you become distracted and lose sight of Me as the goal as you move forward, you could easily slip into deception, idolatry and delusion. So, stay focused as you press towards the mark – Me!”

Activation:

The Lord is encouraging us in this word to not only assess our priorities, but our focus. Take time to intentionally examine, with Holy Spirit’s help and guidance, where your current focus lies. Ask Him to identify any pursuits that you’re working towards that have replaced Him as the primary objective and have inadvertently become an idol within your heart. Lay those things down before him now, and declare Jesus’ rule and reign over your priorities.

Philippians 3:14 (MSG)

‘By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.’  

1 Corinthians 9:24-26 (NLT)

‘Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step…’
