This is the Season, This is the Reason!

This is the Season, this is the Reason!

OKAY... life is in the details, right?!? I was thinking about the details of life (I am a very detailed person) and thought to myself, "are you too detailed?", "do I care too much?". The answer I felt in my spirit was no! No because God is in the details!

It was in the details that God created the heavens and the earth. It was in the details that God created mankind, He was into the details when He asked Noah to build the Ark. He was in the details when he had the Temple built. He was in the details when He was planning out all of history from beginning to end. He was in the details in every story that took place in the bible. He was in the details with the very plan of Jesus’ birth. He was in the details of His death and resurrection and every detail when it came to the salvation of mankind. Every thing that ever happened there were people and places and things that had to take place. I truly believe with all my heart that when you take a detailed person, who is self-motivated, there is no stopping him or her. Why? Because God instilled those details inside of them. If you don’t plan, and write down those plans, how are you going to accomplish the very things God places in your heart? Habakkuk 2:2 says “And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.”

What has God spoken to you? What dreams has He given you? What ideas has He birthed inside of you? WRITE THEM DOWN. READ IT. BELIEVE IT. ACCEPT IT. RUN WITH IT. AND COMMIT TO IT. WHY? Because God gave it to you! He wants us to commit the plans to Him and trust Him! Allow others to encourage you and cheer you on the finish it. But… can you say but??? True determination, true motivation, true commitment comes from within. Within your very spirit where God spoke it to you. Only you can do the work, others can only encourage! You have to truly want what God has placed in your heart more than anyone else wants it for you. You have to dig deep to figure out what your why is. Know what you want to do or what God has shown you to do and run with it. So, get into every detail! Dig deep. Talk to yourself. Speak life (Zoe Life) into your own life. Then allow your mentors to continue to encourage you and uplift you and cheer for you. And remember, not only Jesus but ALL of heaven is cheering you on too, to finish your race that God has set before you.

Now you may be asking what does this have to do with This is the Season, This is the Reason! EVERYTHING! This season is a glorious time, the birth of our Savior. From the beginning of time He had a plan for mankind. A plan for you while you were still in your mother’s womb Jeremiah 1:5 says "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." Just like He had a plan for Jesus, He has a plan for you. And, there was and still is an enemy that is still trying to destroy God’s plan, not only for your life but all mankind. I read a book one time that told the story about the fight that took place in the heavens just to get Jesus to earth! Just like the devil trying to abort those plans, He also is trying to abort the plan for your life.

This the season… He came to earth, to show us the way. The way we should live, the way we should love, the way we should praise and worship and the way to have communion with the Father, the way to have victory, and the way to fulfill our destinies.

Tis the Reason... He was born so to Teach, to Reach and to Die. Die to self, and to save all mankind so we could have total and lasting victory!

Are we going to allow 2019 to be defined by what God did for us? What He has taught us? What He has purposed in our hearts?

The greatest gift ever given to men was two thousand and eighteen years ago in the form of a baby, born in a manger. The greatest gift we can give to Him is to live our life worthy of who He is! NOT just because of what He has done but TRULY because of who He is! He deserves ALL glory, ALL honor, ALL reverence!

Let's make 2019 a year of worth… worthy of the call our Lord place on YOU!

Merry Christmas and may 2019 be filled with ALL that He is!

Until Next Time,

Kim
