The Gap & The Glory  Thursday, December 30, 2021Now when you were a child, your parents bought you clothes. Most of the time they bought you clothes that were a few sizes too large because they knew you were growing and you would fit into them eventually. Believers do that too! They start out their walk going for the heights, searching for their calling and aspiring to fulfill the Great Commission. But many believers after they mess up, or don’t see all they hope to see, they start lowering their expectations. But your calling does not shrink, never. He is waiting for you to rise to it. Rise to your calling. Don’t give up the calling, give up the doubt. Believe what God’s plans are for your future. Believe a few sizes bigger than you are. Believe you will become a person of victory, of righteousness, a person of the Spirit, of joy, of purity, of unstoppable love, walking in the power of the resurrection, because God will only give you a calling that is perfectly tailored a few sizes too big.From Message #621 – The Mantle Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-4TODAY’S MISSION – Envision who you want to be in Messiah, put on the calling that the Lord has given you, and rise to it.To Donate to Hope of the World Ministries: Click here |
This is the first of three in a series: Rise – fill the gap. One key tool I have found is to follow fellow warriors that seem to be way ahead of me, so to speak. The Air Force recruiting pitch is: “Aim High”. So, “the best of men are men at best”. It is all about God’s grace. But God calls us to participate, using our minds, bodies and souls as a community. Praise God!
Soli Deo Gloria!
