My Declaration of Faith:
Sometimes, what I really need isn’t another pep talk, but a gentle and honest push. The truth is, I’ve been holding back. Maybe I’ve told myself I’m not ready, not qualified, or that it’s just not the right time. But deep down, I know that’s not the full story. I’ve been carrying around excuses like baggage when God is calling me to step up and step out.
“I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that
I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing;
therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;”
Deuteronomy 30:19
Since the time God created the first man and woman, He has given them a part of His divine inheritance, and that is to make their own choices. Unfortunately, they chose to make a path that caused the downfall of all mankind.
“Which of you by taking thought can add
one cubit unto his stature?”
Matthew 6:27
Have you ever considered that sometimes, after you pray for a miracle, your mind somehow comes into its own reasoning about how God would answer your prayer? And when He doesn’t answer the way you wanted to, you fall into a spiritual slump, thinking that God did not want to give you the miracle.
