The Absence of “Visible” Results Does Not Mean the Lack of “Invisible” Activity

The past tries to convince you that anything that didn’t happen in its era is not going to happen in the next. The fact that it didn’t happen in the “past” is all the more reason for it to show up in your “future.” Your “negative” past is one of the worse predictors of your “positive” future.

Don’t judge your life by your current speed, but by the speed at which God can cause you to catch up (and pass) where you hoped to be by now.

Start sending as much as you possibly can into your future. Start sending power prayers, prophetic words, dreams, hope, visualization, declarations, and expectation. What you release “today” goes into your “tomorrow,” and will be there waiting for you when you get there in the form of a harvest.

God is already in next week. He’s not stuck in this present moment. He does not submit to time. Your current stagnation in the “natural” is not a sign of a stand-still in the “supernatural.” Spirituality is your realization of and connection to the “invisible world,” that controls everything that we see in the “visible world.” The absence of “visible” results does not mean the lack of “invisible” activity. The Apostle Paul said it this way, “So that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” (Hebrews 11:3b). It’s what’s going on “behind the scenes” that’s controlling what we see “on the scene.”

God Could Be Behind the Scenes…

  • Scheduling a series of events that will propel you into your destiny.
  • Preparing to make one bold, swift move in your life that will catapult you quantum leaps ahead.
  • Clearing everything from the path ahead of you so you can walk in your future with no hindrances or encumbrances.
  • Doing something “in” you that will cause nothing but amazing things to spring forth “from” you.
  • Training your future to never ignore you like your past did.

Just because it appears that nothing “good” is happening right now does not mean nothing “God” is happening right now. Leave room in the equation for God. He’s behind the scenes right now aligning things for your future.

The Spirit of Acceleration!!

Do you need the progress of your life to speed up to catch you up with where you’re supposed to be at this point in your life? If so, you need the Spirit of acceleration to hit your life!

The Spirit of Acceleration is when God gives your life the ability to supersede times laws and break times speed limits. Its when God gives you a speedy turn-around. When things start happening quickly for you. Its when God causes you to bypass the process—where what normally takes 5 years to happen, God causes to happen in 5 months!!!

We are living in an era of compressed time, where time is condensed, squeezed together, and constricted. It’s almost like time is moving too fast. Sometimes it feels like there’s not enough time to accomplish all that God has placed inside of you. Let’s believe God to move the progress of our life at a speed that exceeds the speed of time!!

Anytime you have time compression, acceleration becomes the essence of the hour. You have to do things more quickly—you must make decisions more swiftly. If you are going to do something significant, now is the time!

image

God never asks time for permission to do anything He desires to do. God does not obey time, time obeys Him. Time is something that God created. He told man to take dominion over things created (Gen 1:26), which means you can dominate time!!

Warped Time

Warped time is where the flow of time is interrupted or distorted. It’s also when time is suspended—where time appears to stand still.

The prophet Amos said, Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when the plowman (the guy who tills the soil before you even plant anything) shall overtake the reaper (the one who takes up the harvest), and the treader of grapes him who sows seed…(Amos 9:13).

2 Possible Speculative Meanings

  1. Before you can sow your seed good it will be producing a harvest.
  • God will cause you to bypass the process of time.
  • The moment the decision to sow is made, God has the UPS Guy (in the spirit) to put the package on the delivery truck to your door.
  1. Second speculative meaning. Your seed is going to produce a harvest so large that before you can gather it all up, it’s going to be time to prepare the ground for sowing again.
  • That’s the first kind of warped time. God causes you to bypass the normal process of time; God distorts the normal process.

The 2nd Type of Warped Time

  • God suspends time; He literally stops time. …
  • God erased about a whole day out of the history books of man for Joshua—He froze events to allow Joshua and his allies to get an advantage over their enemies (Joshua 10:12-13).

It is likely that you feel like you should be further ahead than you currently are (in some areas of your life). It may not look like you can catch up. Stop the tape…God can supernaturally suspend time to allow you to catch up to where you’re supposed to be. Or, God can speed up the progress of your life such that it goes at a faster rate than time (where it looks like time stands still while you get caught up to where you were supposed to be).

Get acceleration on your “spiritual radar.” Begin to believe God for the Spirit of Acceleration!

When Your Destiny Starts Pursuing You

Have you experienced the moment when your pursuit of walking in your destiny shifts to your destiny walking in you? There is a point when your destiny starts courting you; calling you; coming after you. There is a juncture where your destiny tells you to rest because it’s doing all the work. What you were once pursuing starts pursuing you.

I bet if you would relax a bit, you would find that your destiny wants to live in you just as much as you want to live in it. Maybe your destiny has already been sending you signals that it’s doing the heavy lifting for you behind the scenes.

Let’s “thicken the plot.” Is your destiny a place that you arrive at, or is it the journey that you experience while you’re pursuing the arrival? Don’t miss the journey while trying to get to a certain place.  The present moment is so often missed by our focus on the moment that has yet to arrive.

Your destiny is determined. Relax a bit. I believe if you are tuned in to the fact that you didn’t just show up here, but the originator and sustainer of all life reached inside Himself, pulled you out, and sent you here, that belief alone sets you on course with your destiny.

Now of course you can have a destiny and ignore it. You can have a destiny and refuse to cooperate with it. You can have a good course—a God course, and choose an alternative course. Having a destiny and choosing to walk in it are two different things. But you have chosen to walk in your destiny. So be who God made you to be. You’re the most powerful person in the world at being you. Stay in your lane. Travel on your side of the road. Your destiny will love you for it…and start pursuing you.  You must be exactly what God made you. It’s when you get out of alignment with who He made you that your life gets out of alignment.

Here’s 4 Other Things:

  1. Every moment in your past has brought you to your present.

Your destiny has brought you to this place. God never wastes any experiences. Every experience you’ve had up to this point has contributed to who you are. Don’t discount today in favor of tomorrow. Live in today while thinking into tomorrow.

  1. Stop striving to BE what you already are.

It should not require any effort for you to be who you are. Just be you. Striving is when you’re trying to make something happen that God is not supporting. Embrace who you are, while you’re endeavoring to improve the current version of “you.”

  1. Take a break and celebrate the path you’re on.

Don’t be so caught up in trying to pursue something that you fail to recognize how much you’ve already been successful at attaining.

  1. Begin to believe that every resource and person necessary for the fulfillment of your destiny will find its way to you.

The more faith you have in the fact that God has pre-chartered an amazing course for your life, the easier it is for that course to chart its way to you.  Let’s believe that we are now walking in a place where our destiny is scheduling the events of our life, determining who calls our cell phone, and what shows up in your mailbox.

Your “Future” Is Hidden In Your “Present”

Everything you do in the present moment will have some type of effect on a future moment. The effect always comes after the cause. You have what you have be“cause.” “Understanding” is the ability to relate events and information to the big picture. It is the ability to know what type of effect your current thought, word, and action will have on the broader scheme of things. That’s why the apostle Paul prayed, “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened…” (Ephesians 1:18).

That is what “living on purpose” is really all about. It’s about being deliberate. It relates to knowing exactly why you are saying what you are saying, and doing what you are doing. Living on purpose means you understand that what you do “right here” is going to affect something else “over there.”

Here are 4 laws of “Your Future Being Hidden in Your Present:”

  1. You can’t go somewhere you’ve never been.

You have to go there on the inside before you will ever experience it on the outside. In order to leave the current level you have to first have a vision of a higher level. That is why “vision” is so vital. Vision is the ability to see with the eyes inside your “heart” not the eyes in your “head.” You must practice using the eyes in your heart to see who you’re supposed to be, what you’re supposed to do, and where’re you’re supposed to go. God will show you pictures of yourself being something great and doing something great. You have to practice capturing those pictures and live there in your imagination and in your spirit. Then, you will eventually arrive there physically.

  1. What you entertain today believes it has a chance to enter your life.

Every thought that enters your mind is actually a word and action this is looking for expression. If you entertain a thought (a good or bad thought), it believes it has a chance to enter your life. The goal of that thought is to get you to convert it from a thought to a word—and then from a word to an action. If that happens, that thought will have transformed itself into verbal and visible expression in the earth.

  1. What you do today determines what you receive tomorrow.

You are familiar with the law of sowing and reaping. It simply states that your future is hidden in your present. Everything you do today is sowing. Your thoughts, your words, your smile, your laughter, your kindness…are all seeds released in the present that will have some sort of effect on your future. Sow wisely; sow strategically; sow purposefully.

  1. Your future is watching your present to see what instructions were sent to it.

The future doesn’t just happen—it gets its assignment from the present. That’s why today is one of most powerful days of your life. It’s setting you up for tomorrow.

The “You” Who Asks for Something Great and the “You” Who Receives It Are 2 Different People

When something is missing in your life it is very likely because you have not qualified for it yet. God often puts desires inside you for great things that are beyond your current level. You think that the great thing you’re pursuing is the reward, when the real reward is the new “you” that the pursuit is going to produce.

Several years ago I was frustrated by the fact that I wasn’t producing 60 per month in a certain area. I prayed and asked God why I was not able to hit “60 per month.”  For 2 years God did not say one thing in response to my prayer. After 2 years I started averaging over 60 per month. Then, for the first time in over 2 years, God begin to talk to me about it. He said, “Two (2) years ago you weren’t in position to produce 60 per month.”  “You didn’t have the structure for it; you didn’t have the staff for it; you didn’t have the marketing in place for it.”  In other words, you can pray for something that you have not even prepared for.  You can be praying for something that you are not going to receive because you do NOT qualify for it yet.

Many times we’re a roast beef sandwich level individual asking for a filet mignon level blessing. The “you” who asks for something great and the “you” who receives it will be two (2) different people. The “you” who receives the great thing you’re asking for today is usually a much more structured, disciplined, organized, and wiser individual. Focus on becoming the individual who already has the great thing you’re seeking. When you become that person, the thing you’re seeking will start seeking you…until it finds its way to your door.

Here’s how to accelerate the process:  Just start acting like the person you were going to give yourself 5 years to become.

New Blog Post: Be Careful…Your Life is Watching You to See What It’s Supposed to Do.

 

You are always being observed by someone whose life can be greatly influenced by what they see you doing. You may also be being watched by someone who has the ability to bless you beyond your imagination. Have you ever considered the reality that your most influential observer is your life itself? Your life is always watching you to see what it is supposed to do.

If you are a habitual procrastinator so will your life be. It will wait until the last minute to bring you the things that you urgently need. It may even hand you things in disarray because it learned that pattern by watching you. It waited too late to get started gathering the things that you needed from watching you constantly wait too late to do the things that you urgently needed to do.

If you fail to prepare, your life will fail to prepare. If you fail to plan, your life will fail to plan. If you do things sloppy your life will respond by giving you things in shambles. If you’re inattentive, so will your life be. It will fail to cover the important details. If you’re habitually late, your life will be late. The things you need won’t show up on time. They may show up way past the deadline when it’s too late for them to be really beneficial.

Your life is mimicking you (its parent). It learns exactly how it’s supposed to act by observing how you act. If you are messy, it will arrange itself to be messy as well. Things will always seem to be out of order and chaotic.

We all tend to be more conscious of what we’re doing when we know someone is watching. Particularly if it is someone who will be influenced by what they see us doing. However, we tend to let our guard down when we think no one is watching. Well there’s always someone watching. It’s the one who is impacted the most by what it sees you doing. It’s your very life.

Here’s What To Do:

  1. Always Be Conscious That Your Life Is Observing You.
  • You are your life’s parent. It will do what it learns from you.
  • Stay alert and focused on the reality that your life is watching you.
  • It will give to you what you give to it.
  1. Give Your Life What You Want It to Give to You.
  • Show your life what you want it to do.
  • Stop procrastinating.
  • Show up ahead of time. By doing so you’re teaching your life to bring the things you need ahead of time.
  1. Don’t Do In Front of Your Life What You Don’t Want It to Do In Front of You.
  • Be an amazing role model for your life.
  • Don’t lie if you don’t want lies, falsehood, and error to be thrown at you.
  • Don’t be sloppy. Don’t be lazy. Don’t take shortcuts.
  • Don’t give anything to your life that you don’t want it to give to you.
