Let’s Dig It Up
“I'm not denying impossible things. There are impossible things, but we have the answer for the impossible. We have a God who loves the Impossible. He's drawn to the impossible. He loves you so much that when you step up to the possible, he'll give you the power to take the steps. Jesus knew where they buried him. Just like He knows where you lost hope. This part of the story is for us. For us to realize we lost hope somewhere because the situation seemed hopeless. So, He has to walk you back to where you dropped hope and then he instructs you there. This is why it matters that you hear the voice of God.” Pastor Tim
Walking back to the place where we lost hope can be quite painful. Most of us actually prefer to not dig up those thoughts and feelings that caused hopelessness to set in. We believed a lie. Have you ever heard, “It is what it is?” This phrase is from a place of hopelessness. It says this can’t be changed. When we see situations that look impossible it is an invitation to hear His voice. It starts with asking Jesus this question. “What possible thing can I do in this moment to move this to the door of impossible where you take over?”
Pastor Tim gave a couple of examples of what it looks like to confront the stone of hopelessness in our lives. Like going for a walk by yourself and talking to Jesus can move the stone, giving a word of encouragement to a spouse who you would love to see Yahweh change, or maybe it is relinquishing control over a situation. Order in our lives looks like us yielding control to the Holy Spirit areas you have had control over. A lot of times when we have a root of hopelessness it can cause us to want to control everything so we don’t find ourselves back in situations that could become hopeless.
It is time to be honest with ourselves, with Jesus and with others. Where did you lose hope? He loves us too much to let us walk around with holes in our soul. On the outside, we pretend everything is great, but we have holes of empty spaces. This cannot continue. We, Beloved Sons & Daughters, are called to live on the earth fully alive walking in the power and authority of Jesus. Our souls are made to be whole, complete in His presence.
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.” Proverbs 13
Desire is defined as a strong feeling of wanting to have something happen. You must allow desire to come to see things change. Do the practical steps Jesus is showing you. It may be so practical you’ll think this isn’t Jesus, but it is because He cares so much about your life and the fact that you are here to be a light set on a hill. As the Bride of Christ this is what our lives should look like…. A TREE OF LIFE!
“Be enthusiastic to serve the Lord, keeping your passion toward him boiling hot! Radiate with the glow of the Holy Spirit and let him fill you with excitement as you serve him. Let this hope burst forth within you, releasing a continual joy. Don’t give up in a time of trouble, but commune with God at all times. Take a constant interest in the needs of God’s beloved people and respond by helping them. And eagerly welcome people as guests into your home. Speak blessing, not cursing, over those who reject and persecute you. Celebrate with those who celebrate, and weep with those who grieve. Live happily together in a spirit of harmony and be as mindful of another’s worth as you are your own.” Romans 12
Today, October 10, 2024, is the day Jesus is saying to you, take my hand and let’s walk back to the place of hopelessness so I can talk to you. It is time to be who I created you to be, My beloved one, who is made whole in mind, body and spirit. You are designed to radiate with My Light. Trust Me in this union as we do it together.
