Now Is The Time
“And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations.” - Ezekiel 36:26-27
In the book of Exodus, God tasks Moses to help the Israelites escape the oppression of slavery in Egypt. However, Moses, retorts, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharoah and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?” (Exodus 3:11). He pleaded, “O Lord, please send someone else to do it” (Exodus 4:13). He didn’t feel ready, but God knew he would equip him with the right tools and people to aid him on his journey.
Similar to Moses, God has a plan for your life, and he has equipped you for the task. He knows what He wants you to do, who He wants you to become, and where He wants you to go. You may believe, Lord, I am not fit. There are certain areas in my life that make me unworthy of your calling. However, where God guides, God provides.
And when God is ready for you to move, He will say NOW IS THE TIME. You are currently on the training ground and God is preparing you for your next move. What He wants from you is your faith and obedience.
Ezekiel 36:26-27 says, “I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations.”
God wants to position you to become all that He created you to be. Are you ready for the shift? He is ready. He is calling you. And when He wants you to move, He will say, now is the time!
