Daily Devotion - Monday - December 28

12/28/2020

0 Comments

 
Every year I would hear of others coming up with a word for their upcoming year. Often it’s something we are in need of cultivation in our lives.  As I pondered it, last year, I said I was going with the word growth. As the last week of the Year went on, the word that kept resonating within my spirit was ‘authority’.  I could not really grasp why this was. I was in a leadership position in the church and was a natural leader most of my life, but it was always a double-edged sword for me. My nature was often something I would find myself backing away from. I never wanted to be considered “bossy”, so I would find myself falling into step with my nature, only to then pull back so I would not be pushy. 2020 was the year God began to change that for me. Every time I would find the urge to back off, I would be reminded by that still, small voice that the Holy Spirit uses that I am meant to use the Authority that God gave me. He will hold me accountable if I begin to let that leadership role go to my head. My job is to let God use me and the things He has given me. So, I ask as this year comes to an end, I ask: What is your word? What does God keep bringing to your sights that He tends to keep bringing back up? Spend some time seeking this - God will give you a word or a theme that He wants to cultivate in you. When you know this word, share it with others. Even if you only let me know, I can then stand with you in prayer that God will be faithful to bring this to fruition (Here’s a secret: He always does, when we are willing) - MSD
