Deuteronomy 2:2-3

Breakthrough all the way…

 

Lesson: On a circle mode, one must not do a double turn around. These were the words of a speaker as he motivates on breakthroughs. If you do a double turn, then you will land in your starting point. Hmm, that’s yummy true. Well, the Christian journey may not take that way. The journey is quite mountainous, a kind of spiral climbing. As some has said that the Greek or Aramaic original staircase of Jacob’s Bethel was spiral and not the normal straightway we see in pictures.

 

The Israelites had journeyed from Egypt to the wilderness for some long years, almost forty by now. That the Lord then called unto their leader, Moses, now you’ve just began. They have turned in circles for forty good years, four decades or two scores. That’s too big for a generation. “And the Lord spoke to me, saying: ‘You have skirted this mountain long enough; turn northward.’”

 

The command they had wanted to hear for almost thirty eight or nine years came for the first time. The Lord had left them in their disarray of presumptions due to disobedience. Likewise, it is too to many Christian pilgrims. The race is not actually for the swift, but to them that are led by His Spirit. How long have you been in that circle of faith, faithfulness or faithlessness? Are you willing to leave or do you yet acknowledge the errors? Probably you need a turn. Pray that the voice tune in to you for direction. Pray now!

 

FOCUSTODAY: What is needed most of the time is not even a breakthrough, but a turn. Turn to the Lord. #fact #focustoday
