Act Like Men - FOR REAL! - Are You In A RUT?

Are you in a rut season? Our bucks are in a rut, and they don't eat. They don't have one focus on their mind. What does a rut mean to you? Are you outside of God's will? And focus on one thing that'll satisfy you only. We're not animals. We're creating the image of God.
 
Romans 1:16-17 AMPC[16]  For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God's power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death] to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, [17]  For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith. 
Colossians 2:20-23 AMPC[20]  If then you have died with Christ to material ways of looking at things and have escaped from the world's crude and elemental notions and teachings of externalism, why do you live as if you still belong to the world? [Why do you submit to rules and regulations?–such as] [21]  Do not handle [this], Do not taste [that], Do not even touch [them], [22]  Referring to things all of which perish with being used. To do this is to follow human precepts and doctrines. [Isa. 29:13.] [23]  Such [practices] have indeed the outward appearance [that popularly passes] for wisdom, in promoting self-imposed rigor of devotion and delight in self-humiliation and severity of discipline of the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh (the lower nature). [Instead, they do not honor God but serve only to indulge the flesh.]

REFOCUS
Life does not only happen on the highs, but in the valleys, too. You have to break away to the Most High to be still and regain your focus. We always have a clearer vision from a higher vantage point. Here we get to also regain our strength to keep on and keep going (Isaiah 40:12-31).
Break away daily and be still. Don’t wait for the highs or the lows.
Remember, even in the midst of the storms and struggles, you can still break away and be still to recalibrate...
 
 
Psalms 46:10 GW
[10] Let go ⌞of your concerns⌟! Then you will know that I am God. I rule the nations. I rule the earth.

---------------------------------------------------
As you ponder all this with God today, consider asking Him:
Father, how is this word/theme meant for me in next season?
Jesus, would you show me how this word/theme might guide me in the year ahead?
Spirit, would you open my mind and heart to all that this word means to you?
------------------------------------------------------
Spirit, would you allow me to hear the anthem you are singing over my life? Would you awaken all my senses to be aware of what and how you are singing? Would you show me how to keep the word of this year and the verse you have given me on my mind, in my heart, and walking out in my life this year? What reminders might help me to keep your anthem in my heart?

Who AM I - Identity Crisis of Youth Today - Illumination - Nov 18 2024

RestToday I want to go to the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. In verses 5-6 we read,Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.” Then he looked, and there by his head was a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and lay down again.Notice that in the midst of his crisis, Elijah rested and ate. He took care of his body.Some of the crises you experience come because you are sleep deprived and you don’t eat right. And you know what? Your body, your soul, and your spirit are all tied together. What you do to one affects the other two. It affects the whole.We are intricately woven together. And the wisest thing you can do when you get into a crisis is just give your body a rest, because it affects every other part of your life.When you are exhausted and physically weak, it is easy for everything to be blown out of proportion. When you are tired, it can look like your whole world is falling apart when it really is not. It is like Mark Twain said, “I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened.”You and I do need to rest. If you are in the midst of a storm today, make sure not to neglect the rest you need.

Corrie ten Boom once said that if the devil can’t make you sin, he’ll make you busy.Her logic is sound: both sin and busyness have the exact same effect—they cut off our connection to God, to other people, and even to our own soul.
