AS WE WALK THIS WALK OF FAITH, GOD TAKES US FROM ONE LEVEL TO ANOTHER LEVEL AS WE GROW. GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD, GOD WILL NOT EVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU, GOD WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO GO THRU MORE THAN YOU CAN BEAR. BUT HAVE YOU EVER RECEIVED A MIGHTY WORD FROM GOD, ACTED ON IT BY FAITH, WALK INTO IT DECLARING HIS WORD, FULLY FAITHFUL THAT WHAT GOD SAID HE SHALL BRING IT TO PASS. AND AS SOON AS YOU PLACE BOTH FEET OUT OF THE BOAT ONTO THE WATER AS PETER DID, LOOKING STRAIGHT AHEAD INTO THE EYES OF THE LORD, THE BOTTOM FALLS. BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT A BABE IN CHRIST, YOU BIND AND LOOSE, YOU GOT SCRIPTURES WRITTEN IN YOUR HEART TO CHEW ON AS NEEDED, AND YOU ARE STILL WALKING THIS THING OUT. YOU ARE DETERMINE TO STAND ON HIS WORD AND WORK IT. WHILE OTHERS CLOSE TO YOU ARE QUESTIONING WHAT YOU SAID GOD TOLD YOU. BUT EVEN WITH THAT YOU KNOW WHAT GOD HAS SPOKEN TO YOU, HE HAS CONFIRMED IN HIS WORD, "MY SHEEP KNOW MY VOICE AND A STRANGER THEY WILL NOT OBEY". THIS IS NOT A STRANGE VOICE TO YOU, HE HAS CONTINUE TO CONFIRM THIS WORD TO YOU. BUT THE BOTTOM FALLS. YOU REFUSE TO LOOK AT YOUR SITUATION, OR GO BY WHAT YOU FEEL. YOU ARE DETERMINE TO PUSH THRU TO SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD. BUT THE BOTTOM FALLS. YOU ARE STILL HANGING IN THERE, YOU ARE DEFEATING SATAN WITH THE WEAPONS GOD HAS GIVEN YOU. BUT THE BOTTOM CONTINUE TO FALL. THEN AFTER FIGHTING A GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, SATAN THROWS YOU SOMETHING THAT BUCKS YOUR KNEES, YOU KNOW IT'S SATAN, BUT IT HURTS PAINFULLY. YOU CALL IN EXTRA FORCES TO PRAY WITH YOU, TRYING TO STAY FOCUS ON WHAT GOD HAS INSTRUCTED YOU. YOU STILL BELIEVES BUT........, I WANTED TO PUT THIS OUT BECAUSE I REALLY DESIRE RESPONSES FROM THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN HERE. THIS IS WHERE I AM. PRAY FOR ME. MY FATHER IS SERIOUSLY ILL, HE HAS BEEN A PASTOR FOR 27YEARS UP UNTIL HIS HEALTH BEGAN TO FAIL 2 YEARS AGO. BUT THINGS HAVE GOTTEN WORSE. I AM FOCUSED, I BELIEVE, BUT I NEED YOUR WORDS AND PRAYER.
