Let God Out of Your Box
When I was growing up, we lived in the outskirts of town in Georgia. One day, I saw a box turtle on the side of the road. I begged my mother to stop the car so I could get the turtle to take it home. After about two days, the turtle kept trying to get out of my box.
Just as I was holding that turtle captive, are you holding God hostage in your box? By that I mean, do you have your own agendas, plans, or timetables for your life? I encourage you to let God be God. Release God from your boxes or entrapments. God is thinking bigger & better than what we can think. If God can change water to wine, spit in the mud and rub on eyes to heal someone, make a donkey speak, place coins in the mouth of a fish, and raise many people from the dead, then He’s got your life & situation under control.
“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. And, my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.” Isaiah 55:8 NLT
Be willing to say, Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done in my life today. He will order your footsteps & perfect everything that concerns you. He is going before you, around you, beneath you, and behind you- you are covered by Him & His precious blood. And, His timing on everything in your life is perfect. Believe it!
I prophesy over you now, Isaiah 55:12, “You’ll go out in joy, you’ll be led into a whole and complete life.” Another version says, “You will go out with joy and be led out in peace.”
Let His Joy & Peace surround you as you relinquish, set free, and surrender to God and let Him out of your box.
