Do not doubt how intricately God is working in your life, on your behalf, for His glory, and because of how much He loves you!
I used to run and walk regularly for a lot of years. I still enjoy it, but I do struggle significantly with back, hip, & joint pains daily. I took up doing the rowing machine about three and half months ago because I knew I badly needed to strengthen my core in order to help my back, and besides, exercise is just so vital to the body, mind, and soul!
God has used the experience to speak symbolically, because, well, He’s just awesome like that! He’s spoken to me on my own life journey.
“When you put in the dedication, you gain endurance. You gain strength, and you gain ‘muscle’ for where I am calling you! How bad do you want it? I know you have it in you, daughter…I know you have inside of you the strength and endurance to push through every single battle that you have to trek through to walk tall, confidently, and completely prepared for where I AM taking you. I chose you for this calling. I birthed you for this. And the changes you see in your body from your dedication symbolize the changes within you that are happening as you push daily to arrive where I am taking you! Your outer strength resembles your inner strength.
What man sees on the outside is symbolic to what I see on the inside- but what can only be seen by man’s eyes cannot compare to what is seen inside of you by My eyes!”
Wow…amen!
I also went solo to see a movie today- “His only son.” God spoke to me with that, too. (Of course He did!)
He reminded me how vitally important it is to trust Him no matter what…no matter what! He tests us as He tested those spoken of in the Bible. He needs to know our faith and trust in His ways!
If He speaks to you on something, take Him at His word. Do not sway, not matter what any other person tells you- yes that can even include your spouse. Abraham needed to not sway despite things his own wife said!!
It was understandably (to both Abraham and Sarah; to us) impossible to understand, because it seemed to completely contradict what God said before! But Abraham chose obedience… the type of obedience that required a level of faith he probably didn’t even think he could possess.
We are no different. We need to choose obedience at times that requires a level of faith we probably don’t even think we possess.…
No matter what anyone thinks about your obedience- when God speaks, you do it!
He will be faithful beyond your comprehension!
He loves you.
He’s jealous for you.
And He is incredibly protective of you!
Why?
Because you are His. His precious one...
And He believes that you do have it in you!
