We are meant to sow in obedience to FATHER’S Divine Intent and accept nothing less.
Paul wrote in Hebrews by The Holy Spirit in the 11th chapter:
1 Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. 2 This testimony of faith is what previous generations were commended for. 3 Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated by the power of God’s Words! He spoke and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen.
When FATHER speaks to us about our individual paths to pursue, HE is guiding us to our ultimate calling as long as we sow in obedience. HE knows our hopes and dreams and as a Loving Father wants to fulfill them, but in HIS timing.
I have always been known as a “doer” thus when operating in the soulish realm, I would try to assist FATHER in making things happen. No, HE doesn’t need my help, HE needs my obedience in order to fulfill my calling. My immaturity seemingly delayed the fulfillment of those prophecies which were encouragement and confirmations of my calling. In my immaturity as a Son, I got ahead of the plan.
Obedience to HIM includes proper timing. Being led by The Holy Spirit requires us to be timely and respond when FATHER directs us to action. We are not to be late either. In the area of finances, people will often delay their giving, especially if it is out of their comfort zone. I found without exception that it was to see if I would sow in obedience. I am sure that many of you have similar stories. I now resist delay in giving so I don’t allow the soul to begin compromising the Word given to me.
6 And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that HE is real and that HE rewards the faith of those who passionately seek HIM.
I am passionate in seeking a more intimate relationship with HIM. HE has rewarded me beyond my greatest expectations. Obviously the adversary isn’t pleased and has tried to remove me from the scene five times over the years… but failed. Each time I passed the test of faith and trust in FATHER in overcoming the evil one and his minions. There is nothing special about me, HE is willing to do the same for all HIS Sons and Daughters. You need to know it!
35 Faith-filled women saw their dead children raised in resurrection power.
Yet it was faith that enabled others to endure great atrocities. They were stretched out on the wheel and tortured, and didn’t deny their faith in order to be freed, because they longed for a more honorable and glorious resurrection!
Physical death is no deterrent to our calling. Jesus proved that over and over again. No suffering can keep us from fulfilling our calling if we will only sow in obedience. Being an overcomer requires us to overcome something out of our comfort zone. When we experience resistance and pressure, we must not give in but earnestly seek FATHER and wait for HIS instructions. The Holy Spirit inside us will navigate us through the current challenge. When we have done all to stand, we must stand.
Was Noah right about building the ark?
7 Faith opened Noah’s heart to receive revelation and warnings from God about what was coming, even things that had never been seen. But he stepped out in reverent obedience to God and built an ark that would save him and his family. By his faith the world was condemned, but Noah received God’s gift of righteousness that comes by believing.
FATHER has kept track of everything you have walked away from in obedience to HIM. As you and I refuse the world’s deliverance but instead we look to FATHER for our path of deliverance, we sow good seed toward our Divine destiny. Even if it looks bleak, don’t give up.
I was expected to die in June of 2017 yet here I am. FATHER told me specifically “You will live and not die.” I held onto that promise and once again can testify of HIS faithfulness. It is not about me, it is totally about HIM! I do not fear death thus it has lost its sting in my life. I am grateful to My Lord Jesus Christ for ever morning I wake up. You should be grateful as well. IN HIM I have my being!
Every morning I look forward to the time praying in The Holy Spirit because I am convinced of its importance in my life. This is why there is no issue with what time THE SPIRIT wakes me up. These words and testimony are meant to encourage you in the challenges you are facing.
I am willing to share both past failures and successes simply to provide perspective. We are meant to come into unity thus each of us is equally important to FATHER’S overall plan. Each of us is to sow in obedience and as we do, we will fulfill our calling, position, and relationship as the Bride of Christ.
Don’t ever give up and don’t ever back off, sow in obedience.
