During hard times and desert moments when we seem to have lost focus, we must return to His Word to find assurance and truth.
There are many who are in transition, in between doing good and then to wake up realizing man dumped on us again. Hey I’m just speaking first hand experience from the last few years as it comes into retrospect. As long as you are seeking His will, you will find and unlock the mysteries if you seek the truth of the Word of God. Trying to put pieces together is futile when reasoning with your mind only. May I suggest setting aside reasoning and rekindle thanksgiving in your life? Getting past the hardship thinking and offenses to the point of falling in Love with what first burned inside you. For those of you reading this, if you will agree with me. “I break all false affection from man that has broken your stride in the Lord. I break all chains of disapointment and bondage of saddness that has come to set on your joy. I break all the deception of Satan concerning your mindset of defeat.” Now Lord Jesus I ask you to spark a fire for wanting your presence more in the life of those that agreed for this in their life.
I challange you to do whatever it takes to put yourself in His path, prayer, fasting, get teaching from people that are in the midst of God. Don’t settle for anything less everyday! Everyday! Your lamp needs to be full for the upcoming days. You will be used, if you are ready.
Hebrews 7:20-28 (The Message)
20-22The old priesthood of Aaron perpetuated itself automatically, father to son, without explicit confirmation by God. But then God intervened and called this new, permanent priesthood into being with an added promise:
God gave his word;
he won’t take it back:
“You’re the permanent priest.” This makes Jesus the guarantee of a far better way between us and God—one that really works! A new covenant.
23-25 Earlier there were a lot of priests, for they died and had to be replaced. But Jesus’ priesthood is permanent. He’s there from now to eternity to save everyone who comes to God through him, always on the job to speak up for them.
26-28 So now we have a high priest who perfectly fits our needs: completely holy, uncompromised by sin, with authority extending as high as God’s presence in heaven itself. Unlike the other high priests, he doesn’t have to offer sacrifices for his own sins every day before he can get around to us and our sins. He’s done it, once and for all: offered up himself as the sacrifice. The law appoints as high priests men who are never able to get the job done right. But this intervening command of God, which came later, appoints the Son, who is absolutely, eternally perfect.

Very good post.
@ Mike I know what your saying there . In the current economy its tough to find a career that pays good enough to live on and is consistent. I have found that if you just work hard and are consistent you can go places . Look at the writer of this page , they are oviously hard working and have just been consistent over time and are now enjoying at least what would appear as somewhat of a success. I would encourage everyone to just keep hustling and moving forward.
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
This information is actually useful and definitely is Comment-Worthy! Hope you wouldnt mind if I use some of the information on my own blog? Cheers.
