YES YOU CAN


MANY OF US HAVE MADE RESOLUTIONS FOR 2018 AND PROBABLY BROKEN THEM ALREADY. SOME OF US HAVE PROMISED TO BECOME A “NEW YOU” BUT ALL WE DID WAS TAKE THE OLD US INTO THE  NEW YEAR BEING THE SAME OLD US.
You see, the Lord was referring to the children of Israel, they had been wondering in the desert for 40 years on the way to the promise land.

And what He was saying to them was, I have something better for you; aren’t you getting tired of the same old thing yet?!

Haven’t you been walking around this wilderness long enough?

Don’t you want experience the change in scenery that I have in store for you,

the promised land that has been waiting for you all this time?

You’ve circled this mountain long enough; turn you northward.

Can you imagine, wondering around in circles, in the desert for 40 years?

As hard as it is to have imagined that happening, it really did happen.

You see, they never sought the change that was necessary for them to experience all that God had in store for them.

Instead of “I am, I can, I will,” it was more like “I’m not, I cant, I won’t.”

 There are still people today, just like the children of Israel were, reluctant to make a change in the course of their lives, to experience all of the blessings God has in store for them; blessings so close, that they could throw a stone and hit them!

Like a strong pot of coffee brewing, they could smell it, but not taste it.

The word of the Lord said: you’ve been in this place long enough.

God said it then, and it still holds true today, its time to change your circumstances!

You can, you know, because Gods word says it’s possible.
