Lift Up (3)

Today we wrap up the final part of the discussion on the importance of obedience in progressing onward.
     Genesis 13:14(NIV) – “The Lord said to Abram after Lot had left him, Lift up now your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward".
     Lastly, Abram was told to look in all directions. We sometimes are so focused on pinpointing one specific way of doing something that we get pigeon-holed into believing that our blessings are only going to come through one particular avenue. There are some who think that it is only by working hard, long, unrelenting hours, that they will be successful in caring for themselves and their families. God’s grace could provide a new concept or idea that could make them a millionaire overnight if they looked up long enough to see it. Some might believe that it is only through education or through marriage that they will be able to achieve their dreams and desires. God’s plans may be in a totally different direction. So look up and look around – great things are on the horizon.
     Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day! Have an awesome first weekend of the New Year. See you on Monday. Be blessed! Rev. Dr. JoAnn
