In the Far North, where I live, the geese have migrated from their northern breeding grounds, flying thousands of miles south, for the winter. They fly, in a V-shaped formation and honk to communicate. Geese take turns leading, in the front, while the others fly slightly higher than the one in front of them. This makes for less wind resistance and a better lift, with less effort. The geese not leading, spend less energy, so they rotate the lead place. Also this formation, helps them keep track of all the birds in the flock, and helps communication. Flying together allows them, to fly long distances, with little effort. If a goose falls out of formation due to illness, injury or tiredness, two geese will go with the goose, until it recovers or dies.
Geese flying in formation are a great example of teamwork and unity. They travel thousands of miles because they work together. God calls Christians to dwell in unity and to work together. When we work, as a team together, no one gets exhausted. Difficult tasks become easy, when everyone helps the others, nothing is impossible and it brings blessings!
How good and pleasant it is when brothers and sisters live together in peace! It is like the finest oils poured on the head, sweet-smelling oils flowing down to cover the beard, Flowing down the beard of Aaron, flowing down the collar of his robe. It is like the gentle rain of Mount Hermon that falls on the hills of Zion. Yes, from this place, the Eternal spoke the command, from there He gave His blessing—life forever. (Psalm 133 VOICE)
Your life is not defined by your past but by your destiny that God has for you. As believers, we live in Christ and have special assignments planned by God. Each destiny is important.
Are you looking forward to your purpose and destiny or are you stuck in the past?
We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny he has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it! (Ephesians 2:10 TPT)
“More than anything, more than any material possession, I want you to create in me a pure heart and renew in me, your righteous spirit. Don’t cast me away from your Presence, Lord”
Even when your heart is hurting, God is still healing you. Even when you’re still struggling, God is still delivering you. Even when you’re needing funds, God is still financially increasing you. Even when you’re lacking character, God is still maturing you. After and before anything and everyone, GOD is STILL GOD…
When you surrender your will, for God’s will, there is a cost. However, following God’s will results in joy and fulfillment that you can not imagine. Surrender to God and trust him completely, letting him direct your life. Yielding your opinions and following his instructions results in great rewards.
Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go. Don’t think for a moment that you know it all. (Proverbs 3:5-6 TPT)
Don’t worry about it, pray about it. Whatever is anxiety on your mind, concern on your heart, happening or needed for your day, pray. Pray about everything. God will respond when you pray. Anxieties disappear when you pray. Concerns are perfected when you pray. Your daily bread is given when you pray.
Praying the Father’s heart, changes things, people, regions, nations, and generations. Prayer releases vision, power, and purpose.
God says, “Call, cry out to me, and I will show you great and mighty things you’ve never dreamed.” Don’t worry about it, pray about it. (Jeremiah 33:3; Philippians 4:6)
Did you know that Yahweh’s (I AM the covenant keeping God of your present) view of you, often differs from your own? Gideon (one who permanently cuts down the enemy) had the angel of Yahweh appear and talk with him. Gideon was hiding, in the winepress, threshing wheat, due to fear of the enemy, who had oppressed the Israelites for seven years. The angel said, “Yahweh is with you, mighty warrior.” (Judges 6:12) Even though Gideon was fearful, weak and felt he was a nobody, Yahweh knew his true character. He was a mighty warrior, who would obey Yahweh and see his country delivered.
Israel suffered devastation, by their enemies destroying their crops, houses and land. They were hiding in caves when they then cried to Yahweh to save them. Gideon was the mighty warrior, who fully depended on Yahweh.
Gideon took down the idols that his family and the rest of Israel were worshiping, rather than the true God, Yahweh. Then 32,000 Israelite men came to fight the enemy, who had invaded their country, like locust. Yahweh only wanted a small army and reduced the number to 300 men against a huge army. Gideon obeyed Yahweh, who fought, for the Israelites. The enemy turned on themselves and killed their own. Then Gideon ruled as a judge, and Israel enjoyed peace for forty years. (Judges 6-7)
Today, Yahweh is speaking to the weak and calling them strong, the fearful he calls mighty warriors, the people-pleasers he challenges to live as God-pleasers, the mild become roaring lions, the helpless become empowered through God’s transformation of them. His Holy Spirit lives, inside of believers, and they see the truth, about themselves.
With Yahweh leading and guiding you, your reliance is no longer on what you can see, in the natural world or your circumstances. He fights your battles and lets you help him!
Pure Glory
