Week 121: A Freed-Up Mind



                                    A Freed-Up Mind
                          Now the just shall live by faith: Hebrews 10:38   
                               
• Free to be creative. . .
• Free to live your purpose…
• Free to be happy. . .
                    
Each week I write what I feel God has given me to write. With that said, this is the third consecutive week I’ve written about worry. Hmmm! Evidently I need this; I have to trust it’s helping you too.

        God wants us to have enough faith to trust Him to handle our problems. He doesn’t have to give us His itinerary: What He’s doing? How He’s going to do it? When He’s going to do it? We have to just believe that He is working no matter how it may seem. That’s faith! (Hebrews 11:1)

 However, since God will handle our problems, this will give us a freed-up mind to do what He wants us to do—for such a time as this. 

It doesn’t take a big stretch of the imagination to see how a freed-up mind is a threat to the enemy. The question is: What is it that he doesn’t want us freed to do?
                Worrying keeps us busy and out of the enemy’s hair.

If your mind was freed from worry, what productive thing would you do? What leaps of faith would you go for? Whatever that “thing” is could be a major clue to what you should be focused on, not some problem that only God can fix.

Ask God: Where should my focus be while You are handling my problems? This takes faith. Many times we are brainwashed into believing that we don’t have the wherewithal to do the will of God. Something else to worry about I guess.   

God is not going to expect us to do what He has not equipped us to do.

                     What will you do with your Freed Up-Mind?
