Forfeit

WOW what an awesome week we have had so far. We have a new radio program. It’s called Breath Of Life Morning Show with the Pastors. M-F. 7am -9am. Click here for more information.

Isaiah 1:19 (King James Version)
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
When a team forfeits a game, they loose, even though they never played the game. We can forfeit things in our life because we are unwilling to follow through in every thing God speaks.

We have to be willing and obedient. You might say is there a difference? Yes! You can be obedient, but not willing to do what you are obedient in. Example, you may tell a child to take out the trash. They know if they do not obey they will suffer the consequences of their disobedience. Even though they obey, they are not willing to do it. Willingness deals with the heart. If your heart is not in it, then you are simply going through the motions.

Make sure your not going through the motions. Take a self-evaluation so that you will not forfeit what God has planed for your life. Face what it is that would cause you not to be willing and obedient. Is it pride, fear, doubt, selfishness, insecurity, failure, the list can go on and on. Give what you have faced to God and begin to replace it with the Word of God by speaking what He has spoken in His word. Moses forfeited the promise land because of his disobedience, and His unwillingness to completely follow through on everything God had instructed him to do. Partial obedience is still disobedience.

Today, don’t forfeit everything you have worked for just because you think you have arrived or what you have not seen yet come to pass.

Remember, What God has promised will come to pass as long as we continue and not forfeit what He has spoken in our lives.

God Bless,

Pastor Mark
