Outlooks determines outcome.
Proverbs 4 Verse 25: "Look straight ahead and fix your eyes on what lies before you."
In the Book of Jeremiah, by today's standard the ministry of Jeremiah was dismal failure. He preached to the same people for over 40 years and yet few of them believed or obeyed his message. But the important lesson from Jeremiah teaches us is, that the test of living for God isn't success, it is faithfulness.
We need to have a Posture of Faith in everything we go through. A lot of things can change our posture, we could start to slouch if things are getting tough.
1 Corinthians 9 Verse 26: "So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what I should." {Training it to carry Faith with a Posture of Faith}
Posture of Faith. Hebrews 12 Verse 1: "Let us strip off every weight that slow us down."
Exchange your yoke with a Posture of Faith.
Matthew 11 Verse 29: {Jesus} For my yoke is easy to bear and the burden I give you is light."
Some people always look is though they are carrying something heavy. Put on a Posture of Faith, so we can carry all we need for our journey through life.
Posture of Faith - Expecting to receive.
Posture of Faith - Expecting to be used.
Posture of Faith -Expecting a Faith outcome.
William Carey said. Expect great things from God, and attempt great things for God.
Live and Walk in a Posture of Faith and that dare to believe.
God Bless.
