Do you know that God’s desire is for you to continuously make progress and advance to newer and higher levels in your life? He’s always doing new things, charting new courses, and opening new frontiers, and He wants you to do the same. I want to challenge you today to get uncomfortable with your comfort zone, and set out for new horizons. This means you shouldn’t remain in one place for too long. There’s always a greater and far more glorious level than where you are right now!
There are no limits to how high you can go, or how great you can become. This was Apostle Paul’s understanding that brought about the statement in Philippians 3:13-14 GNB: “I really do not think that I have already won it; the one thing I do, however, is to forget what is behind me and do my best to reach what is ahead. So I run straight toward the goal in order to win the prize, which is Gods call through Christ Jesus to the life above.” Today, the Lord is saying to you, “Move up to your next and higher level in Me. Set new standards for yourself in My Word!”
To act on this counsel, you must decide now to set new standards for your personality, academics, commitment in church, giving, etc. You can also decide to take up the responsibility of reaching and changing the lives of more teenagers in your environment. Tell yourself, “It’s time to move up higher!” and get to work on it.
Prayer
Father, I thank you for showing me there are no limits to how great I can get and how much progress I can make in my walk with you. Therefore, I refuse to be stagnant or live an average life. I choose to always open my spirit to receive visions of progress, greatness and excellence, and I receive the ability of the Spirit to function in these new and higher levels, in the Name of Jesus. Amen.
