Write it for the Runner

It is my desire to live a life of purpose according to God's will. To be spirit led and achieve all that I was created to be. I believe that I can live life on top of the world. I can have an abundant life with no lack. I can be a blessing to others and claim victory over all. I already know that in the end "I Win."

I must write it out and see the end from the beginning just as my creator has done. It is his will to fulfill the desires of my heart and to carry forth all that I call into existence. This is my vision for the future.

Habakkuk 2:2-4

“Write my answer plainly on tablets,
so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.
3 This vision is for a future time.
It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled.
If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently,
for it will surely take place.
It will not be delayed.

4 “Look at the proud!
They trust in themselves, and their lives are crooked.
But the righteous will live by their faithfulness to God.

I will
Recognize and develop my spiritual gift(s) and purpose for my life.

He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. 15All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you.

so the borrower is servant to the lender.


What dreams, desires and goals do you have for your future? Are you holding them in secrecy to yourself or have you released your faith and put them to paper, based them on the promises of God, and spoken them out loud? Let today be the day you call your future into existence. Write the end from the beginning and see it manifest before you. We know from scriptures that everything that is came from the spoken word of God. So speak your faith today.

Isaiah 55:11

11 It is the same with my word.
I send it out, and it always produces fruit.
It will accomplish all I want it to,
and it will prosper everywhere I send it.

Alone

It may look to most as if I'm alone, but I'm not. God is with me everywhere I go. It may seem as if others are lucky for having someone in their lives, but really I am the one who has been blessed. How do I know you ask? God told me so himself. He has filled a space within me that can contain all he has to sow into me and at the same time be so filled that his essence overflows out of me.

At this time in my life God wants me all to himself. He has set me aside for his purpose. He is doing a work in me, around me, for me, for his chosen time. Do I see clearly my final destination? Not at this time, but I know I am headed someplace I could not get to if I were not... alone.

I use to look at alone differently. Alone was a lonely word. It was a place where only I existed. It was a destination I never wanted to visit. It was a time spent on wishes. Wishes that didn't involve being alone.

Next time you find yourself in that place, being alone, consider that it may just be a state of mind. This place of aloneness may be the greatest place you will ever be in your lifetime. The possibilities are endless when you are alone. Sometimes God needs to remove us from the people and places that are holding us back, influencing our destiny, blocking our divine purpose, diluting the wonderful power that he has put in us.

Next time you feel you are alone, embrace it. There may never be a more wonderful time in your life. Allow God to nurture the spirit he created you to be. Rely solely on him to complete you. Grow into him and allow him to grow into you. You will find that you were never more not alone as when you are alone with him.
