ARE You Ready for the NeXt LEVEL!!!

Sometimes when the door closes on a path, it might be the best thing to happen to your VISION!



I was  wondering why sometimes when you are looking one way, that your opportunities or blessings usually come from another direction?

It is not silly or even frustrating it is all about LIFE.


Don't get stuck in the mud; because the path, goal, person, job or whatever you have been waiting for is not coming in the direction that you have been diligently seeking it to come from--- keep watch or check other options.

It might be that what you wanted is not what you need for the NEXT level of your life.

Habakkuk gave us good advice:

Habakkuk 2:2-3  King James Version (KJV)
I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that reads it.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

But remember what happen to the man at Bethesda Pool, whom keep his eyes on one direction; and Jesus came in the other:


John 5:1-8  King James Version (KJV)
  After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

You see, this man was waiting for his healing (or blessing) for 38 years, looking in the same direction. He knew the vision he was waiting for and did not tarry, but Jesus showed the man, it was coming but not in the direction or path he expected. Habakkuk said "Write the vision" it does not matter how it might all play out, just keep the end result of the vision in hand. Even though it seems it might never happen, wait for it......IT SHALL COME to PASS!!!!!

Good films examples of this are: Sparkle (original or new version), the sisters wanted to be a star.
                                          Pursuit of Happyness: his dream was not deferred.
                                           Love Jones: the book was published, but love had to be lost 2 reflected it.
                                           Incomplete (2014):the best things in life, are right in front of you.
                                           Things Never Said (2013): a poem and new possibilities can heal.

Check these titles out; and meditate on the above scriptures. I believe that might give you new insight on some things that you have been pondering on for a while.

Remember:   though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

Let's Pray:  Father God, we praise you for this time and hour to reflect on your mercy and grace. We have been waiting for some dreams and visions that we do not know that you have ordained for us or made to tarry; because it is for an appointed time.  Please come now, Lord. Make it plan. Speak to our anxious hearts. We are trying not to be anxious about anything, but sometimes it is hard. Speak to us, Lord bring us fresh anointing to carry us on. And we wait for your to come by our side and speak softly in our ear: "Rise, Take up your Vision, and walk."
Thank you in advance for what you are going to do in our lives.
In Jesus precious name, Amen.


I stand with you in your rightful VISION, rest now. It will come, don't look to the right or left. 
Let the Master encourage you....read this:

Proverbs 4: 25-27 (KJV)
                               
25 Let your eyes look right on, and let your eyelids look straight before you.
26 Take a good the path that your feet, and your ways have established.
27 Turn not to the right hand or to the left: remove your foot from evil.

Enough SAID, Now go REST.
see you next level.....I mean Next Time.  (wink!) ;)
