When
you’re going through the delays in life, waiting for an answer to prayer there’s
some things GOD says don’t do because they prolong the delay.
There
are a lot of reasons for the delays that happen in your life but this one is
your own fault. GOD says don’t be
afraid. “They would not enter the land.
They said ‘We are afraid... The
people there are stronger and taller than we are...’” If you know the story you know they had enough faith to move out of Egypt but they didn’t have
enough faith to move into the Promised Land.
They were afraid.
The
first one is, don’t fear.
We are
looking at the Children of Israel and GOD’s dream for them to go into the
Promised Land but they were delayed. In Deuteronomy
1.26 + 28 (TEV) it says, “...They…would
not enter the land. They said... ‘We are
afraid ... The people there are stronger and taller than we are...’”
This is
the first mistake the Israelites made.
There
are a lot of reasons for the delays that happen in your life but this one is
your own fault. GOD says don’t be
afraid. “They would not enter the land.
They said ‘We are afraid... The
people there are stronger and taller than we are...’” If you know the story you know they had enough faith to move out of Egypt but they didn’t have
enough faith to move into the Promised Land.
They were afraid.
The
problem with fear is that it keeps you in the wilderness, in the desert of
life, the barren stage. It prolongs the
delay.
Many of
your dreams have never been fulfilled, not because of God, but because of you,
because you wouldn’t step out in faith. “One
of these days...” The bottom line is
fear. God says, “Don’t fear.” Fear causes the delays in your life and keeps
you from moving ahead.
Maybe
that is what is holding you back from what GOD has for you today.
Just a
thought from the front porch…
