Do you feel stuck in your spiritual walk, not moving forward? Know that the cause is not on God’s side.
“…his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:” 2 Peter 1:3
God has given us everything we need to succeed, and all barriers have been removed by Jesus Christ sacrificial death on the cross.”
…submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.” James 4:7-8, 10
James tells us a couple of steps to get things moving forward:
1. Submit to God.
2. Resist the enemy.
3. Confess sins and do not continue in them.
4. Ask the Lord for a clean heart.
5. Renew your mind.
6. Take an active stand against negative thinking; and
7. Humble yourselves.
