Have you ever come up against a "brick wall"?
You're going down the road of life then all of a sudden, almost out of no where,
you run into an obstacle. Your path is completely blocked- you can't go
forward, there is no way around it, it's just there. What do you do?
Do you sit down and just stare at it? Do you turn around and go
back? One of the two is usually the course that we take.
Neither of them are the course of action we should take- one keeps you stuck in
the present and the other pulls you back to the past. We are suppose to be
advancing forward.
There is another course of action that we can
take. It's called praise, speaking to the mountain, putting your trust in
God. As you look to Him instead of at the brick wall- praising Him,
seeking His guidance, stepping forward in faith and confidence in His ability to
cause you to keep going forward no matter what arises, something is going to
happen to that wall. You will see it either move aside to let you by, see
it vanish away, find a door of passage through it, or you will
discover loose bricks that can be removed one by one until the way is
clear.
Don't sit there and stare at it. Don't be
discouraged by it and turn back. Seek the Lord about it, listen to what He
says, let Him show you what to do, then obey Him. The Israelites came to a
"brick wall", it was called the Red Sea. Moses acknowledged the Lord and
waited to hear from Him, God showed him the course of action to take and it was
moved out of their way. The same thing with the walls
of Jericho. Joshua sought the Lord for the course of action and the
walls came tumbling down.
Have a great day. Seek God concerning
the course of action you need to take so that you can keep moving
forward.
