It is Time

"You have stayed long enough on this mountain. Break camp and advance into the hill country..."
(Deuteronomy 1:6)


Where have you remained long enough? This verse has been resonating through my mind for days as the Lord has reminded "You have stayed long enough in this place. Break camp & advance."

We love to be comfortable. We can easily enjoy great time with the Lord, hear Him speak a word to our spirit, or enjoy a wonderful season of growth with Christ... and then set up camp there and sit. This can all to easily happen with our perspectives and presumptions as well. We presume God is a certain way (it's the way we've viewed Him our whole lives). We believe God to act a certain way (it's the way our believed God to act). We view life a certain way (a perspective we've seen life through for quite a while).

Oh that we would allow God to take us on from this place. It's time to break camp & advance. God is always after a fresh work in our lives. There is an adventure awaiting us , treasure to uncover, and power to behold... But it will not come if we remain at our tent. Ask the Lord to take up on from the place of comfort today and lead you up the mountain with Him. For that is where the glory of God dwells... and oh we want it.
