And they rose at twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians; and when they had come to the outskirts of the Syrian camp, to their surprise no one was there. – II Kings 7:5
REFERENCE
II Kings 7:3-8
The Israelites were experiencing a severe famine because their enemy besieged their land until it became empty. As a result, there was hunger, death, frustration and hopelessness all over the city.
However, these four lepers did the unimaginable by rising up and going to the camp of the enemy. Little did they know that God will magnify their feeble steps to terrify the enemy. But think about this, What if they hadn’t moved? What would have happened?
Today, a lot of people are discouraged, defeated and hopeless because they experienced failures, broken dreams and have uncompleted projects starring them in the face. They therefore have lost the zeal to go on for fear of failing again.
God’s word to you today is: ‘PRESS ON.’ It is only when you press on that you will see what God’s grace can do with your steps. Confront your fears today and make a move! Forget how you lost in the past and press forward!
When you press, you will be surprised that most of your fears are not real, you will be surprised that you can still become that dream you have given up on. You will be surprised that you can do what you thought you couldn’t do. You will be surprised to know that God is willing to help you more than you are willing to move forward.
Progress’ is your birthright, don’t be satisfied with average. Push off your barriers and limitations and press!
This TUESDAY, receive grace to TAKE steps towards the fulfillment of your dreams!
