Leaving the Past Behind!

2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore, if anyone is in CHRIST, they are a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

Leaving the Past Behind!

Do we extend HIS resurrection power to the past or present things?
Do we gaze with “dry bone Faith” on those possessing broken wings?

Or are we looking backwards to
the former days with longing?
Does this view consume our thinking? Do we let it mute our calling?

Stay Beloved, in HIS WORD, found
every Hour – forward faced!
For former steps reflected often
can create unpleasant pains.

So know which way fixated are your heart’s most zealous eyes…
…before you ever wake each day!
Therefore! Keep pressing to the skies!

As HIServant progressing both upwards and forwards in HIService,

Whitney

Devotional: Philippians 3:13-14 “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of GOD in
JESUS CHRIST.”

Easier said than done for most of us.

However! We cannot comprehend how much quicker we can run for HIM until we release the past to where it belongs.

While we learn from it, it cannot be our main focus. While we can take time to review, we must not linger needlessly. Our present service for HIS NAME is at stake!

So review, take notes, apply and MOVE ON!

Countless intersections await each of us where souls who are chained to their pasts need us – with CHRIST’s power – to release them.

Let us be going then!

Amen and amen.
