During these 10 days of preparation - - you are now half-way there - - Half-way to your prophetic future in this new season of God! This is a word of encouragement for you to "Keep Pressing and Leave Your Past Behind!"
Paul said in Philippians 3:13-14 - I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead. I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
The enemy wants to keep you looking back - - Back over your past mistakes, back over your past regrets, back over your traumatic experiences. All the things you've done in the past that was not so pretty - - all the things you've done in the past that you're ashamed of, etc. etc. etc. If the enemy can keep you looking back you will never press forward to cross over into your inheritance! "No one having put his hand to the plow and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God." (Luke 9:62)
You might not be able to obliterate the past from your memory - - but you must REFUSE to let the past obstruct your progress! Satan does not want you to claim your inheritance! He does not want you to have the spiritual and material assets available to you as a "seed of Abraham" and a "joint-heir with Christ Jesus!" He wants to use up your energies keeping your focused on the past so that you can't reach forward for your prophetic future. Let the enemy know today - - that you are half-way there and you will not turn back! Tell Satan that your past has been left behind and covered under the blood of Jesus!
By Faith - - Keep Pressing! WE ARE PRAYING FOR EACH OF YOU!
REMINDER: Please email me any testimonies and praise reports after Friday, September 22nd. I would like to share them with others as a testimony of the power of God's word in your life.
Stay in the Glory!
Apostle Sandy
