In this Special Episode 9, I deliver a move forward in faith message. Below you will find a segment of the episode's transcript about this crucial topic of moving forward. Moving forward is a tricky thing. It means that by faith you put one foot in front of the other and walk in the direction that is ahead and not behind. Sometimes, it takes courage. There are times when there is no thought to it. It is almost a reaction because it is a destination that one must reach. No other option is available to get things done. How many times have you been there in auto-pilot doing the things that are necessary? How many times has it led to a place of nowhere? There is a calling that God has for me and you as well. There are people who will be blessed by what we do for the Lord. It is bigger than me and what you have to do is bigger than you. I, we, cannot settle for the mundane. There is a purpose attached to our lives it takes focus, focuses forward into God’s glory. It is the move forward that brings us into alignment with Jesus and into our divine assignment. Share with me or leave a comment regarding your move forward at www.godspromisesmedia.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
