Blessings to you today . . . . .
Recently, God and I have discussed my complete trust and faith in Him, fully, entirely, in all things; about letting go and letting God; exercising the faith to believe it's not my struggle, as He is victorious for me. The Almighty is taking care of me, and His care is the absolute best. His care is supernatural, which doesn’t compare with our care in the natural. I thank Him deeply.
Often when we think of movement, we think of literal, physical, “one-foot-in-front-of-the-other” movement. I’ve been dealing with that sort of movement in a huge way – the consuming list of “to-do’s” – the earthly things to be done. God has the plan. I’m allowing Him to lead and He is getting the tasks done, in His timing (not mine!).
I was having a random conversation with a brother in Christ I 'happened' to run into (no coincidence, remember . . . . . ). Not knowing anything of the activities in my life, he shared from the Holy Spirit, “Sometimes God wants us to move. When water stays still, stays stagnate, it is not healthy; it declines, weakens. When water moves, there is refreshment and growth and rejuvenation. Sometimes God says MOVE.”
Move, sure, absolutely, that I am doing! One thing I can say is there is physical movement – the physical movement of things being completed. In His timing. At His direction, but not without the consistent temptations from satan. I am, (sometimes still with resistance), letting go and trusting God for completion. In His timing. (Notice this seems to be a repetitive phrase?) Without my trust and complete faith in Him, I would be stagnating the forward movement. There is physical movement!
Then the revelation to me erupted. The real movement isn’t the earthly responsibilities being completed – all the ‘stuff’ I’ve been learning to trust and have faith in my Heavenly Father to accomplish for me. It isn't the doing, finishing, marking off the list of "to-do's".
I would never experience the real movement without first showing trust and faith in the current physical movement; without the trust of God taking care of the massive “to-do’s”. I'm a work in progress; the trust and faith is now present for the physical movement -- but that's not the real movement!
The real movement is much more important. The real movement is my continued spiritual movement towards Him; the movement in me for Him, in my relationship with Him, in His Kingdom.
With my faith and trust, God is taking care of the physical forward flow, but the spiritual movement – the real movement -- is up to me. I’ve been concentrating so heavily on the physical without realizing it’s the spiritual movement God wants for me now. He has the physical movement covered in His plan. The past few years have brought me the most phenomenal spiritual movement with God! That movement is to continue for refreshment and rejuvenation. My intimacy with the Holy Father will stay refreshed in Him, through Him, by Him!
Are temptations and attacks from the enemy still going to occur – you betcha. As satan throws his lies and deceptions and guilt, my God given confidence strengthens because I am His child. Only through the cross am I worthy.
I continue to cast all cares on Him. Continue to speak the desires of my heart and what I want to be true. I continue to line up my thoughts and words in The Word. Believe. Stay faithful to Him. Trust.
I do have “Victory in Jesus” because “Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus”!
1 Peter 5:7 “Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you.”
Romans 8:25 "But if we hope for what we do not have yet, we wait for it patiently."
Prayerfully, your sister in Him,
Robin
