UP TO YOUR WAIST IN IT

UP TO YOUR WAIST IN IT

When I find myself walking in a difficult situation: Up To Your Waist In It (I like to define it as: entwined in a situation or condition that could have the ability to hinder or constrict your forward movement and keep you from accomplishing your goals in life or one that exalts your forward movement through the default of trials you have to go through allowed by the LORD: spiritually or mentally), I choose to believe that YHWH, through Yashuah, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, has put me there for a very good reason. (Jeremiah 29:11-13 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”) And through whatever we go through we will, with the help of our Lord and Saviour, Yashuah, will come through it better than we were before. We know, also, that the more you desire to serve the LORD, with your whole heart, the greater the opposition will be that come against you.

When going through a “happy” time, in your life, it seems to be very short lived but it seems to take a long time to go through problems, situations and circumstances; they become more intense before they taper off and finally go away (ready for the next one). Yes, you find yourself up to your waist in it, again; trying to push past the pains that are present while attempting to regain your spiritual, mental and physical balance, from the past, as you walk through the tears, the fears and the years of YAH’s preparing you, through Yashuah, guided by the Holy Spirit, for your purpose to be revealed to you (yes, if you hold on long enough, remain steady in your walk, you will see your life changes, from glory to glory, one test at a time). But we are so impatient and still carry so much doubt as to who our God is and what our GOD is capable of, that any little test, trial or tribulation seem to take its toll. Every time you find yourself up to your waist in any circumstance or situation, problem or whatever you are facing, call on and talk to YAH, He will answer.( Psalm 91:14-16 14Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. 15He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. 16With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation).

If you look closer at yourself you will see the new you, slowly emerging from the ashes of your battles; a little scarred, a little scared. You may be still a little rough around your spiritual edges but smoother than you were before. And we all know that YAH does not say it is over until His word is complete (Isaiah 55:11 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it).  

As you look back, you should be able to understand that while you  were, are and always will be, Up To Your Waist In It (instead circumstances getting the best of you, use it as a catalyst to participate in and develop the plan and purpose of your life: the one YHWH has for us individually), the experiences and exposures, while not exactly easy to bear, have made you stronger. All these not so kind and gentle situations that have happened in life has given you access to the wondrous workings of YHWH’s supernatural highway, through Yashuah, to experience a longer, clearer and smoother one. This access enables you to carry your cross; bearing it with the promises of YHWH, through Yashuah, our Lord and Saviour; helped by the Holy Spirit to guide you no matter what you find yourselves up to your waist in; taking you higher and higher in your hope for today and tomorrow with love, peace, joy and happiness. God’s got it no worry no fear.
