First Step is Taking the First Step
This morning I started a new five-day devotional called “The Chosen” and invited friends and family to join me. The first day it talked about us in “the before” and God calls us when we are in “the before.” You see God uses ordinary people to do HIS work, amen?
There is a victory waiting for us if we will submit to HIS calling, amen?
The one thing that all victories have in common is that we must take the first step!
When God parted the Red Sea, Moses and all the Israelites still had to take the first step!
God has aligned victories in each and every one of our lives and HE wants us to get stepping!
Are you ready for a victory in your life?
The first step in any victory is taking the first step!
Remember David and Goliath?
1 Samuel 17:32-40 is where you can find this story.
In verse 40 it reads: And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd’s bag which he had, even in a scrip, and his sling was in his hand: And HE DREW NEAR to the Philistine!
Please don’t miss this. You see, even after David had made all the promises to go and fight!
Even after David had rehearsed his story and gave a resume of his accomplishments to Saul
Even after he had told everybody what he was going to do
David still had to TAKE THAT FIRST STEP! Amen?
Ask yourself, “Are there victories without fighting?”
Some of us have a victory waiting in deliverance!
Some of us have a victory waiting in healing.
Some of us have a victory in kicking a habit!
Some of us have a victory in being a true witness!
Some of us have a victory waiting in a new ministry.
Ask yourself this morning, do you have a victory waiting?
Do not let satan steal your willingness to fight!
Take the First Step today!

Have a blessed day.

This is so powerful and true. Are we just plain stubborn or afraid to take that step? I pray that we all find the courage and desire to take that first step and do what Jesus, our Lord and Savior is calling us to do.
