Genesis 9:1-29
So many in life are
overshadowed and are driven by their fears, their hurts, their blunders, their
mistakes, their burdens and their hick-ups in life. Noah and his family are now
back on dry ground. It's been a rough ride but now God has dried up the waters
of the earth. God hangs a rainbow in the sky and says; " Never again will
a flood destroy the Earth"
This is a sign of the
covenant I am making between me and you and everything living around you and
everyone living after you. I'm putting my rainbow in the clouds, a sign of the
covenant between me and the Earth. (12)
Even God says it's time to
move forward. Too many of us in life live in the past instead of our future.
None of us can do anything about our mistakes, our failures, our shortcomings,
the things we wish we could change in the past. It's time to move ahead.
"Twenty years from
now, you'll be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than the ones you
did do." Mark Twain
There is a reason that you
are still on planet earth. God isn't finished with you. There are still more
mountains to climb, valleys to cross, victories to win, storms to overcome, and
challenges to conquer. God is taking you and me somewhere. Regardless of the
past or the forecast, like Noah; "I have all intention of staying on the
boat till I see the sun shine again, and I see the heavens open up over my life
and fulfill the mandate and the promises of God in my life.
What are you dealing with
today? What keeps lingering in your fuzzy thought life? Allow the Holy Spirit
of God to overshadow you with fresh vision, fresh energy and fresh faith to go
places you have never been, to do things that you have never done, to become
someone that you have never been.
Through
the spirit of God within you say; " No longer will I allow my past to
overshadow my life, but I will be driven by Christ alone and the faith He has
placed in my heart. He will take the steering wheel of my life, and I will
become all that He has created me to become for His honor and glory. In the
days He has assigned my life on this earth, "I declare; today is a new day
with new beginnings, yes new beginnings." dannysdevotional.com
