Today’s Reading:
Proverbs 3
Isaiah 43
“Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go.”
Proverbs 3:5-6 TPT
The Spirit of the Lord says,
This is the day of the Lord’s grace. Today is the day of My grace. Rest in it. Trust in it. Rely on it like you would a raft in a pool. I will prop you up, and I will propel you forward. My grace is like a self-propelled raft atop the river of My anointing. My anointing has carved the path, and My grace will get you there. Be a willing vessel. Be an active participant. Be a partner with Me, and I will get you to the land of the vision. I will join you in making the dream a reality. Trust in Me with all your heart. Lean not on your own understanding or strength or power. In all your ways, acknowledge Me, and I will make your path straight, and I will propel you there.
15 “I am the Lord, your Holy One,
Isaiah 43:15-17
The Creator of Israel, your King.”
16 Thus says the Lord,
Who makes a way through the sea
And a path through the mighty waters,
17 Who brings forth the chariot and the horse,
The army and the mighty man
(They will lie down together and not rise again;
They have been quenched and extinguished like a wick)
This is a different kind of race than the one to which you are accustomed. That’s why you are so disoriented. That’s why you feel so much burden. You are treating it like the former races, but I Am doing a new thing. This is not a typical land race where you run under your own steam, and you are hard on your body and mind. No. This is a completely different time. I Am doing a new thing. This is not like the races of before. This is more like white water rafting. My anointing and My grace combine to cause great energy and propel you forward. You may paddle at times. You are active at all times, but it is a different sort of race, and you can get much farther much faster. See how I have put a team in your boat? This is a different season. Where you have grown accustomed to trail running solo, now I am placing you in teams. Now I Am giving you support and community. What was before will not be again. This is a new time with a new race.
18 “Do not call to mind the former things,
Isaiah 43:18-19
Or ponder things of the past.
19 “Behold, I will do something new,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?
I will even make a roadway in the wilderness,
Rivers in the desert.
Don’t fight the anointing and My grace. Don’t stand outside of it because it is uncomfortable or unfamiliar and you know how to do things under your own strength. Jump in with both feet and your whole heart. Live in the joy and exhilaration of this new race. It is a gift. It is for now. It is for you. Leave those solo trails behind. Abandon them for the stirred up foaming waters of My grace and anointing. This is the adventure you have been seeking. This is the ride of a lifetime. Forget those solo trails. It’s time for fun. It’s time for rapid, unexpected advancement. It’s time for close-knit community and family. It’s time for a multiplicative fruitfulness and an exponential impact. This is a new race. It requires a new mindset, a new frame. It requires cooperation, faith and trust. It requires you to jump in and leave those old solo trails behind. This is the new race. It’s the race of My anointing and grace.
How to Respond
- Trust the Lord with all your mind, soul and strength. Let go of the former ways of doing things and by faith jump into this new kind of adventurous race.
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You for shaking things up in my life. Thank You for hearing my prayers and bringing me into teams, sending partners and setting me on Your path of grace and anointing. Help me to not fight the new by using old methods. Help me to embrace the new thing and the new way. Show me new ways of operating that work in this new race in which you have positioned me.
- Declare, The Lord has shifted us into a new race that requires a new way of operating.
- Decree, today is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. This is a new day, and I am in a new race of the Lord’s anointing and grace. I will jump in with both feet and with full faith and joy. I will not revert to old ways of operating that do not serve me here. I will rely on the Lord and trust Him for advancement, multiplicative fruitfulness and exponential impact.
