My church, are you ready to step out onto the water with me? Will you risk the comfort and warmth of what you are familiar with to be pressed into a new shape?
I am doing something new on the earth and it requires total trust and belief in who I am. In the crushing and the pressing, my bride is being moulded into a new shape. While this can be hard, there is joy to be had as well.
My desire is for each believer to run the race set before them with everything they have in them. To allow every tendon to be stretched and every muscle made strong so that they may be utterly unstoppable.
There is joy to be experienced in the shaping. There is joy to be experienced in the stepping out. Come walk out on the water with me and discover the fullness of who you are meant to be.
Activation: Ask Holy Spirit to show you where you are in the water. Are you on the shoreline? Waist deep? Floating contentedly? When Holy Spirit has shown you where you are, process with him why that is; ask him if there are any areas in your life where you are holding back. Process this by releasing those things so you can step out further with him.
Hebrews 12:1 (TPT)
. . . we must let go of every wound that has pierced us and the sin we so easily fall into. Then we will be able to run life’s marathon race with passion and determination, for the race has been already marked out before us.
1 Corinthians 1:30 (TPT)
For it is not from man that we draw our life but from God as we are being joined to Jesus, the anointed one.
