Let Go Of Your Past And Reach Toward Your Future in Christ
“Let go of your past and reach toward your future in Christ, for it is here where your focus should be directed. (Isaiah 43:18-19, Philippians 3:13) You can’t change the past, but you should not be chained to it or tormented by the memories of things past. You have repented. (Acts 3:19) You have turned to Me. (Joel 2:12) You have asked for forgiveness (1 John 1:9) and have attempted to make right past wrongs done to others. (Numbers 5:6-7) No longer do I hold these things against you, so you shouldn’t hold them against yourself either. (Hebrews 8:12) Move forward. Shed the burdens of the past. Live in the present. Look forward to the future and who you are becoming in Christ Jesus, your Lord and Savior. Reach forward to the future and take hold of the promises that I have spoken over you. (Philippians 3:14) I will see my covenant through to completion if you will continue to obediently seek Me first in all things.
Every day you live is a blessing from God and you should treat it like such. It is no accident that you are living in the day and time that it is now for I do not make mistakes. I do not err. (2 Samuel 22:31) I Am God and I change not. (Malachi 3:6) I Am the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. (Hebrews 13:8). Place your trust in Me to solve life’s problems. (Psalm 50:15) The battle is not yours, I will fight for you (2 Chronicles 20:15, Exodus 14:14). All I ask is that you fix your eyes on Me (Psalm 121:1-2) and follow where I lead (Psalm 139:10). When the battle arises, pray and I will intercede for you on your behalf. You are not meant to fight the evil things of this world on your own. You can’t. It’s impossible that you fight the spiritual realm in the physical body. (1 Corinthians 2:14, 15:46)
But when you pray, when you cry out in your despair about the circumstances taking place in your life, I will move on your behalf. (2 Chronicles 16:9) I will come to the defense of those who are seeking to live a righteous and holy life according to My Word. (Revelation 22:11) I will meet your every need according to My riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19) Yes, I Am Your Father (Ephesians 4:6), I Am Your Intercessor (Romans 8:26), and I Am Your Comforter (John 14:26). I Am all that you need. I Am your All in All. (1 Corinthians 15:28) I Am the answer to life’s problems, so you will do well to learn to seek Me (Isaiah 58:2) and walk with Me daily (Colossians 2:6). For then you will find favor in My sight (Proverbs 3:4) and I will move the mountain for you or I will walk with you through the valleys until you reach the mountain top and then back down again. I Am with you always. (Matthew 28:20)
Who can satisfy your soul like Me? (Psalm 63:5-7) You will find true fulfillment when you lay everything at my feet. Do not fear. Do not be afraid for I Am with you. Trust that I will see you through no matter your circumstances. I Am here for you. I stand with arms extended, waiting for you to trust Me with everything. That’s right. Everything. I will not let you down. I will not leave you or forsake you. I will strengthen you. I will raise you up with My righteous right hand. I know all and I see all. (Isaiah 41:10) And when you allow me to work things out for you, I can do so for the good of those who love me and according to My purpose and My plan for your life. (Romans 8:26-28) It’s time to go. It’s time to move. It’s time to walk forward in faith trusting that I know where you’re going,” saith the Lord.
