Unfinished Business — David Turner

We've gone through some things in 2024 but we all have unfinished business that might carry through to the new year if we don't actively choose to let go. The thing is, our unfinished business is not just going to go away at the start of the new year, that healing, forgiveness, that sin: if it's not intentionally removed will remain. Like the Israelites that came across Jericho, there are walls we face that can only be overcome through obedience. As we lean not on our or understanding and see a circumstance through the eyes of God, it begins to give us the strength to change.Often the directions of God are obscure but as we trust we get to speak the word of God over our situation we can see the truth begin to transform us. There are things in our lives that no one else can triumph but us and He knows our facts but He's looking for our faith. The baggage that we have can't come with us especially if we are expecting God to take us to the next level. God will put us in situations where our faith leads us to the last effort but our history with God should be the firm foundation for us to go from one victory to the next. The enemy wants us to be so shortsighted that we forget where God has come through. Here some some things we can think through:What do you see?
God is always challenging us to look past what our physical eyes can see. What do you hear?
What is coming through our ears and out of our mouths?What do you know?
Gods nature is pure and what we know about Him is the key to faith. We have to come to the step where we are not just reading the word but are we applying the word. Are we spending time with God but more than that are we being transformed by His presence. Don't go into what's next without finishing what's now, let's not be a church that is mostly healed but leaving a foothold for the enemy!
