to encounter a miracle we must get beyond the limitations of conventional thinking. Miracles occur on the way. That means we must move out to meet them. God rarely sends us out with a miracle. Instead, he creates scenarios for us where we learn to trust, move in faith and discover favor. Expectancy is always built on our experience of God’s faithfulness.
Moses did not need the miracle of the parting of the Red Sea until he got there. Israel did not need the experience of breakfast flying in every morning until the food ran out- exodus 14 – 16. We move our trust in God to get us there, we have specific situations where faith can overcome our lack. all obstacles are overcome in time as we stay in the favor that Jesus consistently ignites in our spirit.
The obstacles that appear at the beginning open enterprise may only be threats. It is initial intimidation to deter us from even starting. As we move forward the real blockages will appear, and so will our provision. Next every problem will be a solution. In the same place as the crisis will be an opportunity. When God orchestrates our path, a negative and a positive are always paired together. As we focus on the positive, trust, faith and expectancy rise up within and the negative disappears. This is the way of our helper, the Holy Spirit. He is a genius at life in Christ. He loves our journey in the walk of faith.
In Christ we see the end product first. We see ourselves overcoming and growing in Christ because of this challenge. The primary goal of all circumstances is that we become like Jesus in relationship with the father. The secondary purpose is that we receive under pressure and achieve the breakthrough that is present.
All that is required is that we walk forward to meet the challenge of his goodness.
What kind of person do you expect to become at the end of this situation? The difference is made by your learning curve and the growth in your identity. As you focus on the primary purpose the secondary objective it’s more easily achieved.
