The Table Is Spread~
Mark 5: 18; 19 says: "Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had compassion on you."
There are three words to examine in that verse which is (Go, Show, and Tell). It takes faith to release the power of God to change your circumstances.
In the story, Jesus traveled to "the country of the Gadarenes". Where he was unwelcomed….We all have felt unwelcome at some point in time in our lives. Whether it was going to a party, getting a promotion, etc… Having felt as if you wanted to hide or even worse lay low so you would not bring any attention to yourself. If you never bring faith to bear upon your circumstances, all you will do is live in hope. Your circumstances will never change.
First Corinthians 15:58 says: "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."
If you want to change you have to be willing to be mature enough to leaving childish things behind and remain steadfast for something new. Even if hell rises up against you, if the water rises, you stick with the goal. This is what steadfast means. It takes discipline and commitment to be constant.
Jesus said in John 15:18-19: "If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you."
The enemy will put pressure on you when you attempt to reach your goal, but remember you can handle it. Jesus did. You are in good company my friend.
