DON’T DRAG YOUR FEET!


I was up at once, didn’t drag my feet, 
was quick to follow your orders. The wicked hemmed me 
in-there was no way out-but not for a minute did 
I forget your plan for me.” Psalm 119:60-61 (MSG)

Thus says the Lord: THE TIME IS NOW. Isaiah 49 calls it “the acceptable time”. Esther says “for such a time as this”. The Spirit of the Lord is saying the time is NOW. Whatever it is that you have been dragging your feet on, it’s time to break loose from those chains that are weighing your feet down and move forward. God is speaking. Take time today to get quiet and hear what He is saying to you. You may say “I didn’t hear anything”, but I promise it’s not because He’s silent. Sometimes He comes with an audible voice, sometimes it’s just that ‘peace that surpasses all understanding guarding your spirit’ around a decision or circumstance, at times it’s through the words of others…these days God even sends emails and text messages. Be intentional about stripping yourself of the noise of your life. Clean out your spiritual ears. Don’t allow the wicked things of this world to hem you up. And when the Word comes to leave, move, do, be, say…Don't just continue to talk about what "you're gonna do" or what you've been "meaning" to do. This is not the time for talk. This is the time for action! DON’T DRAG YOUR FEET and be QUICK in following through, and watch God move on your behalf as a response!

Be blessed as you pursue him with fervor in this day!
