Step Out of Your Tent: Embrace Your Divine Future

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

As you journey through life, there are moments when you decide to take a pause. You take some rest, and then continue. However, this hibernation tends to be a redefining moment in a person’s life. What happens during this time is rather astonishing. That is, either one remains in this state much longer than expected, or he/she settles. In effect, we build mental tents and dwell in them. If you have built a tent, you must step out of it. If you have gotten stuck in one, you must also step outside. Only then can you count your stars and connect to your future, your destiny.

Often, we stay too long in the tent and miss the glorious future God has for us.

Your tent can be your past successes or your pains and rejections. It might be a comfort zone or a familiar way of life. It could also be a good enough relationship, etc.

God wants us to live a higher life, as He has placed unlimited resources within us. However, before you can see and move in that direction, like Abraham, we have to step out of our tent.

Today, can you identify a tent that is hindering your progress? Is it preventing you from seeing the promises of God concerning your life? Are you willing to step out? If yes, I pray that God enables you with the courage you need in Jesus’ name.

The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. (Psalms 37:23, NLT)

You have testimonies to share. Beginning today, even now, believe that your steps are directed by God. Thus, pray, listen, and start. Whatever He shows you as you step out shall come to pass.

God bless you richly. 🙏

MY LITTLE STORY

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

It is about how a bird changed the destiny of a man. This man had been a Christian for about 5years and his new life in Christ hasn’t been easy for him. He finally decided to end it all as he was not ready to cheat people to make money. He decided to cheat life this time by hanging himself.

One early morning, he went to the forest to commit suicide. As he journeyed to end his life, he noticed a bird was following him at a distant. When he walked, the bird walked. He stood still, the bird did the same. He sat, it sat. He sang, it sang. Then the man yelled “wonders shall never end. How could a bird repeat what I do? This is not right. There is something wrong somewhere.”
The bird also responded “wonders shall never end. How could a man created in the image of God decide to end his precious life? This is not right. There is something wrong somewhere.”
The man after hearing this broke into tears. He told the bird “you have no idea what I have been through for the past 5 years; no wife, no kid, no family, no job, no money, no home, and no joy. I want to end it all!”

The bird came closer and said ” Man, you are a perfect creature of the Most High God. He created you in His image and likeness. You have the ability to do things and think like Him. You can sow and reap. You can create and recreate. You can do everything you set mind to do. Look at me, I can’t sow, reap, think like God. I can’t invent. And you guys kill us for food yet we find good reason every morning to give thanks to God.
Man, you have power to change your situation. Search within you and you will find something, something unique that you can use to change the world around you. I don’t kill myself when there is no food in the morning, I keep searching, and searching till I get food. God will be disappointed if you kill yourself. Your life is the greatest thing you have on earth so don’t sell it to the devil.”

The man prayed for forgiveness and went home to start life all over again. He sowed the few seeds he had in his house, and after 5 years he became the best farmer in his town. He produced enough to feed his community, and the nearby communities.

This is my message for you today. God created you in His image and likeness. He equipped you with all you need to succeed in this life. You have something on the inside that nobody on earth has ever thought of. The world is waiting for you come out with your ideas. You are not ordinary my friend. You are perfect creation of the Most High God.
