There's no time like the present...

They say when your spirit is low that the devil is trying to mess with you and  your breakthrough or deliverance must be around the corner! How many times have you heard that or had that said to you! The question is, do you believe? Now let's be honest, it's great to hear that the current sticky situation your in, if your anything like me, the tears, the tantrums and the restlessness are all because there's a breakthrough around the corner! Sounds like a 'cop-out' right....well no it's not, because God does show up in his perfect time! If you are willing to hear from him and place yourself in a position where he can speak to you!

Let me share my testimony with you....

The week started out like any other week; university, home & new job. I went into the week thinking right i'm ready, devil throw what you've got at me because my God is a God of good and not evil. He will protect me and all you do will bounce off me. I learnt the lesson the hard way! I came to the revelation that Christ does not stop us going through the fire, but it's who we call on and how we handle the fire that matters? For either way, he'll bring us through for in his Word it states so.

It got to about Thursday and the devil was messing with my mind, messing with my inner peace, the only thing is I didn't notice it! I woke up in a very low spirit and that was my day for the rest of the day and even into Friday. I classed it as 'one of those days' for two days straight! But unknown to me the Lord was working in an unseen place and my deliverance was only 48hours away! You see it doesn't take long for God to show up, even if its in the form of a preacher from Atlanta Georgia.

The message was entitled 'I'm Gonna Jump' and I certainly did that in more ways than one! It was made clear that the Lord gives you moments in life, a window of opportunity that you will never get again and I knew in my spirit I'm currently in my Kairos moment (a window of opportunity that will never be returned) and I HAVE to jump. The message was simple, jump or stay the same! So I choose to jump and keep looking forward!

I guess what I'm trying to get across to you is the Lord will only give you certain opportunities once in life. Remember, we have a free will. We can follow his word or not, either way he still loves us but surely you'd want the better path. It was as if the sermon was written just for me! The revelation I have caught is simple! Focus on the things that matter to me, and with or without you I'm jumping! In order for me to have all my hearts desires, I have to keep it moving! I began to realise that all I've been through was preparation for where I am now! For the current tasks the Lord has put in front of me! That means focus! So I obey...I am fully aware my obedience to God will no doubt upset people, but obedience to God is better than sacrifice!

I look forward to the future and hope you do to. Understand that every up and down you have been through is preparation for the next level in your life! Never regret it, embrace it! No matter what you have been through, God can still use you, because he has seen what you went through, as he knew your life from birth and he will continue to use you for his glory!

My question to you is, where will you be when your Kairos moment appears? And most importantly will you jump into the unknown or stay where your comfortable? I know where'd I'd rather be :)

There truly is no time like the present.... ;)

God Bless you,
