RHEMA 10/04/08 PRECIOUS ASSURANCE
EXPERIENCE: This whole adventure has been very
stretching for me the last several weeks as I have been
full time into trying out new software for building a
new home for the QW Class, and depending upon the Lord
to move me and those who would like to join me on this
more intimate level of growth. It has taken me out of
my comfort zone and made me feel not very qualified and
inept. That is how it is when we learn new things. We
may be very accomplished at what we do, but when we
learn something new it puts us back at kindergarten
level!
Today I am still searching for software... feeling
insecure, continuing to pray for help in the search,
help in the upcoming teaching. Right now I am testing
more software, and suddenly when I am feeling all this
insecurity, I was asking Him, “Are You SURE I am going
in the right direction?” I turned to the following with
anointed hands and just soaked in His loving comfort.
Some of those who jump into the new class may feel past
their comforts zones too. God assures that we are all
in this together.
ANOINTED HANDS: I turned to this one in my Words to
Ponder book:
Yes I understand that this new place is a real stretch
for you. Promotion is something that you are prepared
for, and you must trust Me that I have prepared you. I
have taken you inch by inch and you are more than
ready. Now you must walk in this new place and walk in
peace. Let My peace be your compass. If you lose your
peace, don’t run away. Instead RUN TO Me and lean,
lean, lean. I will straighten and steady your gait and
grant you all the help you need to remain.
Put all qualms aside that you are not qualified. You
feel this way because it is a new place that you have
never walked before and so it is outside your comfort
zone. I AM your comfort zone. As long as you abide in
Me, your new boundaries will flourish with much comfort
and grace. Every stretch is a growing process until you
have fully occupied and are walking in the fullness of
what is before you. Draw upon all the training and
preparation I have already given you. Even your past
mistakes are the perfect foundation, having learned
those lessons well. And now, ask Me for revelation to
build upon what you have learned, so that your occupying
will encompass these new boundaries with a steady and
sturdy gait.
Isa 54:2-3 NKJV
"Enlarge the place of your tent and let them stretch
out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare;
Lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes. For
you shall expand to the right and to the left, and your
descendants will inherit the nations, and make the
desolate cities inhabited |
