Stay focused on what is ahead

Stay focused on what is ahead

We have all been on the verge of a breakthrough for the past few years. Things start to happen or begin to change and then it seems to taper off and subside. These are given to us as deposits to what is coming. There is breakthrough on its way, even if it is incrementally smaller or in different areas of our lives than we have expected to see. We are being challenged in how we think and view situations. We must find a new way to operate starting this year.

We really are in a time similar to David in 1 Samuel 30. David had numerous prophetic promises and had been anointed to be the next king but Saul (the current king) was trying to kill him. As we do something new, there will be opposition from those who do not understand. David’s breakthrough happened after what did not look much like a blessing at all. In fact, it came after a tremendous amount of loss (1 Samuel 30:6).

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us (Romans 8:18)

Live each day with gratitude and joy while focusing your hope on the future and not the current situation. God is about to use what seems like a setback to propel us into our destiny at a greater level. The next few weeks are going to be interesting.

Blessings,
Doug Addison
