PROCESS OF GOD

Do you not know that you are the temple of God
and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? – 1 Corinthians 3:16

The yellow brick road to God’s greater things is not a product of random circumstances. What I’m about to tell you goes against the grain of our fast food get-it-now generation. Are you ready for it?

God is a God of process. Strategic, specific progression. We have to submit to His will if we want Him to perfectly complete the process in our life. Those three stages are Egypt, the Wilderness, and the Promised Land. The book of Exodus is a great starting point for understanding this progression.

In Egypt, the Hebrews were slaves. What are you enslaved by? Finances, a loveless marriage, anger, addiction, poor health, a past you can’t shake, lies that continue to follow you, a job that robs your soul? When you’re in Egypt, you’re digging a great big hole for yourself. God is still with you and wants to deliver you, but you have to put the shovel down!

In the Wilderness, the Hebrews were free, but they had to learn how to trust God for their provision and build a relationship with Him. They failed miserably. They feared they would starve to death, so God provided manna every morning. They grumbled. They complained. They feared the unknown. Are you like the children of Israel? Do you long for Egypt because it’s familiar? Do you see the miracles God works in your life but doubt His power? Getting out of the wilderness and into the Promised Land takes faith and action. You have to step forward into God’s promises.

In the Promised Land, the Hebrews trusted God and took the land He had set aside for them. They learned that when you advance into new territory, you don’t fight for victory, you fight from victory. They no longer needed manna because they were ready to step into God’s promises and bear fruit of their own. Are you bearing fruit? Are you walking in God’s promises?

“Hear, O Israel! You are crossing over the Jordan today to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than you, great cities fortified to heaven…” – Deuteronomy 9:1

Declaration: Jesus saved me, so I am not a slave to sin; He redeemed me, so I do not wander in a barren wilderness; He transformed me so that I am walking as a child of the Lord Most High.
