Beloved Covenant

For many, it’s a revelation that miracles are not God’s best for you. In fact, just needing a miracle means you are neck-deep in a mess. God would much rather prosper you by rewarding you for your hard work and generosity.

Wouldn’t you rather live in a house that is paid off than getting a miracle while your house is being repossessed and sold off to someone else?

Well, here’s another great revelation for you to catch: momentum builds when you begin to achieve God-given goals through hard work. That momentum becomes an impelling force enabling you to land in a better spot, so you don’t need a miracle.

We’ve all seen the wonder of momentum. In Guatemala City, Guatemala, you can still see the wreckage of a 747 airliner that ran out of runway and over a cliff, crashing into the slum below. The pilot was not used to landing on a short runway and, despite slamming on the brakes and hitting the reverse thrusters, went right over the edge.

The Bible clearly states that our relationship with God is one of constant forward momentum. That’s why we call it a “walk.” It starts off small, but the longer we walk with God, the bigger steps He requires of us and enables us to make.

Never underestimate the power of momentum! If God can give you the wisdom, favor, and character to get a raise at work, He can give you a promotion. If He can give you a better position at work, He can give you a plan to achieve a better job altogether.

Once you’re living by God-given plans and dreams, you are truly living by faith through momentum.
