Numbers 11:23 “Is there a limit to my power?” the Lord answered.
You have invested your most valuable assets into the spiritual riches of God’s Kingdom. Your contributions of trust and loyalty are given freely to God and His returns never disappoint.
Unflinching faith comes to you like a divine download and you are often amazed by a sudden level of confidence which seems to appear out of nowhere.
You actively seek help from God because you know His power has no limit. As a reward for your humility and authenticity, the Holy Spirit infuses you with wisdom and power that far exceeds your natural human abilities.
You are able to accomplish things others have deemed unattainable and you give all the credit to Jesus who turned your impossibilities into possibilities.
You find that this realm of ‘ridiculous faith’ has proven to be the most exciting and fulfilling method of maneuvering through this human experience.
As a world of miracles opens before you, you scale to heights you never dreamed possible. And as your confidence in God grows stronger, you see your life filled with the reality of His limitless power.
We don’t have all the answers, and that’s okay. In fact, sitting in the unknown is what keeps us intrigued and engaged. It places our curiosity on high alert and keeps us digging for more clues.
We enjoy stumbling through the vast expanse of the unknown because we love tapping into an intelligence that outpaces our own. We pray for a fresh word and feel certain there is always one on its way.
We make peace with our unanswered questions. We know they will serve as the driving force that keeps us captivated with the vast expanse of this great eternal mystery.
What are some unanswered questions that you struggle with?
Judges 11:6 They told him, “Come, and lead us, so that we can fight the enemy.”
God is always in front of you, guiding the way, clearing a path, and leveling the field.
Much like the football player who receives a handoff and advances up the field on a path cleared by his teammates, you run with the destiny you’ve been given. You remain confident that angelic forces are blocking the opposition and opening a path to the goal line.
With a sure win in sight, your life is filled with first downs, goals, and extra points.
Eventually, when the clock runs out, and you leave the field, you will be met by your adoring fans from past generations who have been cheering you on.
Jesus will welcome you with a winning smile and enthusiastic praise for a game well played.
Some people were standing there and asked, “What are you doing? Why are you untying that colt?” Mark 11:5
Happy Birthday 11/5
You have a call on your life, and you have always known it. Others may not understand it, and some will ask why you do what you do.
You know that you have received specific instructions from the Lord about what He wants you to do. You can’t explain it to others because you don’t really understand it yourself.
You are accustomed to hearing the inner voice of the Holy Spirit. You often adapt your plans or rearrange your schedule to accommodate this expression of God that resonates within your own spirit. Sometimes His instructions are vague or segmented, and you must step out in faith, believing the rest of the plan will come when the moment is right. Yet, other times the instructions are laid out so simply and clearly, you know what you need to do in no uncertain terms.
When Jesus told the disciples to go get the colt, they couldn’t possibly have known His purpose or plan. They wouldn’t have been able to explain it to anyone else because they didn’t understand it themselves.
Therefore, Jesus gave them the perfect response to those who asked what and why. They were to respond, “The Lord needs it.”
When you are following the inner voice of the Holy Spirit, others may question your purpose or your motives. Rather than offering explanations that might lead to confusion, you can simply report, “The Lord needs me to do this.”
You do not need to explain what Jesus asks of you or why He specifically selected you for the task. You may not even understand it yourself, but that’s okay. All you know is the Lord has asked you to do it, and you have no intention of letting Him down.
Psalm 11:4 The Lord is in His holy house. The Lord’s throne is in heaven.
You are the dwelling place of God on this earth. You serve as His hands, eyes, ears, and heart while you journey through time.
Since God is a Spirit, His impact on the physical realm can only be supported by those who coordinate their efforts with His.
Knowing that the Creator of the Universe has entrusted you with His Spirit and made His home within you gives you purpose and direction.
You know that none of the daily tasks of life are insignificant.
You recognize that each conversation you have with another human being is a sacred connection.
You know that each impulse of compassion, mercy, kindness, or strength is a signal for action from the Spirit of God which leads you to your next assignment.
As the temple of God, you keep your mind and body healthy and strong.
You offer your physical presence to God as a living space where He can function through you to bring light and life to the people you meet on the paths you walk.
Exodus 11:3 The Lord made the Egyptians respect His people. Even the officials and all the people considered Moses to be a very great man.
******
God has caused you to be respected by those who are naturally inclined to disregard you because of race, religion, culture, or economic status. You have gained the favor of those in power because God has placed you in a position to serve them.
You are kind, trustworthy, and compassionate. You are loyal and dependable. You are confident and comfortable in your own skin. Your submission to God’s authority has caught the attention of human authority figures and caused them to admire you.
You are respected wherever you go. You maintain a wide circle of influence and are surrounded by powerful people who are inspired by your call and willing to help you on your journey.
As you hear God’s words, your faith surges. Supernatural energy infuses you with a heavenly mindset. As you focus your attention on Kingdom goals, you are simultaneously improving the world in which you reside.
In this way, you are living in two realms at once. You are a citizen of Heaven, and an ambassador of Christ. Your heart is set on things above, and your days are filled with bringing heaven to earth.
The spiritual sound waves of that still small voice within, creates melody in your mind and harmony in your heart. This music of heaven shifts your gaze away from human struggles and toward the throne room of your King.
You are able to enjoy the presence and comfort of God, while existing in a finite dimension. You reap the benefits of a dual reality where His Kingdom is as real to you as the world in which you live.
I tell you, do not worry. Don’t worry about your life and what you will eat or drink. And don’t worry about your body and what you will wear. Isn’t there more to life than eating? Aren’t there more important things for the body than clothes? Matthew 6:25
********
In the passage Jesus is telling the crowds that there is much more to their lives than the clothes they wear or the food they eat.
What is this MORE he was talking about? Perhaps it is true satisfaction and purpose.
Each of us has a MORE in our divine DNA. It is the unique effect we were designed to deliver to this earthly planet. It is the portion of the Kingdom that we each bring to earth during the years we spend here. The ‘more’ Jesus spoke of are the blessings we give, the encouragement we offer, the mentorship we provide, and the miracles we perform.
We realize that if we continue to focus on these Kingdom matters, we can level up to a life of satisfaction and contentment. God takes care of our needs, and we expand His Kingdom.
A good person can look forward to happiness.Proverbs 10:28
