FORGET THOSE THINGS WHICH LIES BEHIND YOU

FORGET THOSE THINGS WHICH LIES BEHIND; PRESS FORWARD TOWARD A HIGHER MARK

We do not know our entire story for our life and have not reached our perfection in our walk with God; it has not been revealed. We press forward, with the strength given to us by God, towards the fate of a most glorious future. And rest assured, that as we continue to follow the Word and grasp Its meaning, purpose, and the vital part It plays in the direction we elect to go, we will see the undiluted love and glory, of the Lord, being poured out on our life.  But we must stand!

One of the doors we must unlock is the one to the “things” which are behind us; which should remain in the past. Open it up, one last time, then clear out the baggage, that which weigh your mind, heart, and spirit down; all the clutter, that which is strewn before you and stand in the way of your relationship with Jesus, and all the negative things of the past, which prohibits your spiritual growth, which should be ever-increasing.

Ask God, through Jesus, to help you with the habit of looking behind and bringing up your past mistakes and bad experiences. Do you know that the more and longer you look back, the longer it takes to pass God’s test He sets before you which matures you in the Word and your walk with Him. Make up in your mind that even though the rain may fall, the storms may come, and you want to fall out, faint, and give up, that you will continue to reach toward that which has been ordained and placed before you, knowing that when the right time has come all will be made clear. GODS GOT IT NO WORRY NO FEAR.

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
