In the
first part we talked about the importance of keeping your vows. Now we´re going
to talk about the strength; so lets meditate on this:
“Now
then, just as the LORD promised, he has kept me alive for forty-five years
since the time he said this to Moses, while Israel moved about in the desert.
So here I am today, eighty-five years old! I am still as strong today as the
day Moses sent me out; I´m just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was
then”. Joshua 14.10,11
The
second secret to reach what you want is to BE STRONG, I mean, keep trying hard
no matter the circumstances. It doesn´t matter how many times you´ve already
sacrificed, or pray, or fast, or persevere or fought for your dreams.
Caleb
waited for 45 years for his dreams to come true, and when he was 85, he said he
was still as strong as he was back then when God promised He was going to bless
him. Now think: an 85 year old grandfather saying “ I´m ready for the battle!”
The ENERGY within Caleb came from God because he kept being loyal to Him; Caleb
never stopped doing his best to get where he wanted to get.
When God
sees this kind of attitude coming from a person, He makes sure to provide
her/him with strength, positive energy and the disposition to fight until the
end.
Now
after reading about this example of faith, I ask you: Are you still putting all
your strength or you´re not as strong as you were in the beginning? Which one
is your situation?
You have
to be STRONG to reach your dreams, even if you have to do things all over again.
Don´t let negative energy take away your faith, leaving you without strength or
doing whatever it takes to make you desist from reaching your dreams.
To be
continued..
God
bless you
