You’ve Been Here Long Enough

Deuteronomy 1:6 & 8

6The Lord our God spoke to us at Horeb: “You have stayed at this mountain long enough. 8See, I have set the land before you. Enter and take possession of the land the Lord swore to give your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their future descendants.”

Sometimes we can stunt our own growth by putting our roots in the wrong place. Though this place was good for a while; sustaining you with nutrients, soil, water and light, it can no longer contain that which was meant to disperse. It is time to put your faith into action. Go! Plant your roots in the place that He has showed you. There, you will find the right combination of nutrients, soil, and water. And just as He always has, the Son will give you just the right amount of light, at the right time, to establish you and cause you to grow.

~ Prayer ~

God, I thank you for allowing me to see that I was stuck. Bind my fears and loose my faith as I move forward into the place that you have set before me. And if my growth once again becomes stunted, uproot me and plant me in the place that you would have me to grow.
