Reading about Abraham, I have realised that sometimes what we desire so much from the Lord can actually steal our love from Jehovah.
Let me break it down. Did you know Abraham's joy of having Isaac in his old age actually made him a love-slave to his son? Yeah... That's it! Have you thought of the fact that sometimes the things you have been praying and desiring from the Lord often times come to take the love you have for God. For example, receiving the job employment, marriage, fruit of the womb, etc you have been praying for. See how the growth in your ministry has made you forget God, your job has and taking all your time now, your husband and wife is all your heart cries for... Have you noticed it?
Often times the outburst of joy hailing from our hearts for our breakthrough actually makes the breakthrough an idol if not well managed. Selah.
I pray that just like Abraham gathered the confidence to sacrifice Isaac amidst he being his only begotten son, may we receive the boldness and passion to sacrifice our breakthroughs and chase hard after God regardless of the things we cherish so much. Amen.
I don't know if I may continue this message but let me say to be continued 😊
