Scripture for today

Deutronomy 1:6 Back at Horeb, God, our God, spoke to us: "You've stayed long enough at this mountain. On your way now. Get moving (Msg) 

Imagine how many days it will take to get to Cannan? Just 14 days but it took 40 years. Deutronomy 1:2.  Have you dwelt at the same spot in your life for a long time?.  You wish things could change but it just seem you are running around in circles. God is saying to you today that you have stayed so long on this mountain. 

Just yesterday God revealed to me ways I have allowed the devil hold me bound in my mind with negative thoughts.  These negative thoughts have a great and dangerous impact on my personal and spiritual growth. Moving forward for me now will need me to tell myself all the truths in God's word.  I have believed the devil so much that I let him have an upper hand in my life.  It's not God's pleasure that we dwell at one spot in our lives without moving forward.  He wants us to progress and move to our promise land. 

Understand that the children of Israel were held bound in their minds,  in their mentality.  To them getting to the promise land was no longer a priority, they were chained from their minds so the desire to move forward is not there.  You understand those areas that of your life you have allowed the devil to chain you down with his lies.  God is telling you today that it's time to move. 

It's time to drop off the lies and pick up his truths and move forward.  You have stayed so long in that bad relationship, in that sickness, in that frustrating, in that anxiety, in that trouble of life.  It's time for you to move forward.  Pick up yourself, speak God's Word and Excel. 

Prayer: Father, I move forward from any negative thoughts that has held me bound.
