Stretch

There is a place of ‘stretch’ between natural and supernatural, your ability and mine. Look out for the areas in your life where I am teaching you to stretch beyond the familiar. To partner with me in this area is to partner with miracles and healing! 

Gideon was told that through him, Israel would defeat the Midianites. In obedience, he gathered 32,000 men. I began to stretch his faith, telling him to let all those who were fearful leave. Only 10,000 remained! I continued, asking him to remove all those who were not battle ready. Now only 300 men were left! Finally, I gave him instructions to defeat the enemy using only trumpets, empty jars and torches! Gideon still chose to not shrink back but stretch and consequently supernatural doors of deliverance and victory were opened not only for his family but an entire nation! 

Today,  will you partner with me in the stretch?  I want to raise your expectations of what I can do in and through you, for the truth is I am able to do immeasurably more than you could hope or imagine! 

A Prayer to Pray: Dear Lord, I repent for the times I have shrunk back and not stepped out in faith. Today, I lay down fear and choose to partner with you when you ask me to stretch. I ask that as I do, you will open up heavenly doors of victories, miracles, and healing in my life! Amen 

Hebrews 11:6 (ESV)

And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Ephesians 3:20 (NIV)

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we could hope or imagine, according to his power that is at work in us.
