CONSIDER THIS... He Humbled you and allowed you to hunger (Deuteronomy 8:3)
It is a good place to reach when you REMEMBER The Lord. He just wants to be remembered after all He made you in the first place.
The greatest place to get to is one of trust and one of knowing that ALL things work for the good of those that love Him.
But consider this, everything that has happened to you and that He has been permitted in your life has been ALLOWED to show you how you cannot rely on your own sense of righteousness. Now the test of this is wether you can reach a place where you acknowledge this. Even THE LACK in your lives a loving God has allowed so that you don’t get ahead of yourselves.
We humble ourselves and in He lifts us IN HIS TIME. Yet we always want to EXALT OURSELVES.
The cheif victory in your lives will be won when you recognise that God has allowed everything in your lives, good and bad, to show you that you cannot advance in your own strength. others will not join you because it makes sense but because YOU ARE IN OBEDIENCE TO MY VOICE.
End this year in Praise for who I am not what you can do or have done.
Turn it ALL around thank me for what you have and that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME.
So how does this work. Well don’t focus on what you don’t have but that I have showed you where you are at...at this time and that it is somewhere worth thanking and praising for. It is this that will change your attitude.
Takes your eyes off yourselves and put them on me more than you have done, but in the areas of pain and lack in your lives. I want to inhabit you!!!

Consider This... There Is A Wall Between Us.
CONSIDER THIS... There is a WALL BETWEEN US.
“The voice of my beloved behold he cometh leaping UPON THE MOUNTAIN" (Song of Songs 2:8)... "my beloved is like a roe or a young hart behold HE STANDS BEHIND OUR WALL."
When we are a child we protect ourselves from hurt. However the very thing that is used in this way CAN BECOME A PRISON. When we try to turn to the Lord we find it hard in the long term to have the kind of un-hindered and free communication that He wants for us.
CONSIDER THIS...
"We have many more things to say and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing" (Hebrews 5:11)
We are spoilt for teaching and meetings in the western church. We go from place to place according to the preacher and style that we prefer. We even become cynical when we say... "I have heard it and it sounds great but I still hurt". Our worship has become routine and frantic, but our problems become worse.
CONSIDER THIS...
‘Therefore behold I will hedge up thy way with thorns AND MAKE A WALL, that she shall not find her paths... then she shall say... I WILL GO AND RETURN TO MY FIRST HUSBAND (Hosea 2:6)
So WHERE IS THE HOPE. The hope lies in being honest.
Turn to Him let Him love you. Let Him heal you. Let Him renew you. LET HIM BE YOUR FIRST LOVE AGAIN. (Revelation 2:4)
Be honest... acknowledge that He allows us to be in this position. His LOVE disciplines us. THERE IS HOPE but it is right in the middle of what seems to be a mess. (Hosea 2:15)
THE ENEMY SAYS ITS ALL OVER BUT GOD SAYS... YOU ARE JUST BEING PREPARED.
