CHANGE THE CONDITION OF YOUR ENVIRONMENT

12/20/2022

"When He came in, He said to them, “Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping.” And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying. Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, “Talitha, cumi,” which is translated, “Little girl, I say to you, arise.” (Mark 5:39-41)

For some, the reason you haven't seen as much as the Lord desired for you to see is the condition of your environment. The old associations that supported or sustained mediocrity, addictions, and holding patterns that perpetuated debt, lack and homelessness are still in your life.

Now if God broke any of such relationships as I know He did for some, I beseech you this day, "Do not go back or it will cost you your life."

For others, He is saying, "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you.” (2 Corinthians 6:17). It means that you can break free of those associations and replace them with new ones. One of the ways you can do this and I sense this for some might be to quit social media completely. Put these people out as Jesus did.

Notice that in the miracle where He said "little girl arise" that miracle was only possible because Jesus changed the conditions of that environment. He selected what I call "high-stakes" people in that context to be in His social orbit for that moment.

Saint, it is time for you to do the same. As we move into the new year, identify the "high-stakes" people that would help you deliver on your God-appointed inheritance and placement by the Holy Spirit and immediately include them in your daily affairs.

The process of changing the conditions of your environment is two-fold. "And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever." (Genesis 13: 14-15). You must separate from some people and then the entities of God will become the ecosystem for your miraculous advancement.

Have a blessed day!

Faith-Filled Confession

I take responsibility for my spiritual advancement by tweaking people in my spiritual environment by the Holy Spirit. I advance. And I arise by the lifting power of God that is inside me. Nothing dies in me. And I bask in the glory of the LORD. Hallelujah!
