THE TITLE FOR TODAY’S EPISODE:  UNMOVABLE

Have you ever been around that person that nothing shakes them? Bad news comes, they say, God will take care of it. Devastating things happen maybe their house burns down or is washed away in a flood. They are one the news standing strong saying, I don’t know why this had to happen. Yes, it is hurtful and sad but God will take care of me.

They appear to be solid like granite. They have unshakable faith. Every child of God should be that unshakable.  We have our lives built on the solid rock. Things in this life are looking unstable and are beginning to shake. But His children will be unshakable.

Psalm 125:1 They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

Mount Zion is God’s dwelling place. It is symbolic of being unmovable. It is a place of security to us who believe in God. Follow me for a moment if Mt Zion is unmovable because it is the place God dwells. Then our lives should be unmovable because God dwells within us. Being unmovable will make us grow deep roots and allow us to be fruitful.

Being steadfast doesn’t mean that we are not emotionally moved. We will still feel disappointment, loss and pain when bad things happen. But we will not let our faith waiver. We believe that God has got our backs and will work out our issues.

I Cor 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Abounding means plentiful, large quantity.  We must be steady or consistent, unmovable always working for the Lord. Our labor is not in vain in the Lord. We cannot outgive God. He will take what we give him and always multiply it into something good. Having consistency in our faith walk, with help us to be steadier and more unmovable.

Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

These verses explain what it means to be strong and steadfast. We have chosen as Christians to walk in the path of God’s way. Not in the way of the ungodly. Not in the seat of judgmental and critical. Being negative and critical is not walking in God’s plan. Our happiness should be in God’s plan. As his children we must be saturated with God’s word.

We as children of God are compared to a tree that is planted beside of water. Trees beside of water has to grow deep roots, to keep from being washed away in the water. By having deep roots, the tree will grow strong and bring forth fruit at the right time.

The thing that makes the tree fruitful is that it has strong roots. The tree is unmovable. We too can have the kind of roots that will produce godly fruit.

Col 2:6-7 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:  7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

No one starts out being an instant mature Christian. It takes time to study, learn and establish our faith.  It takes time to sort out man-made religion and to find God’s plan for our lives. As we grow into mature Christians, we become established and grow the roots we need to be bold in our faith. To be unmovable.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS

WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

The title of today’s episode: UNMOVEABLE

Many of the prophets have said that we are going in to a season of shaking. God is allowing the shaking to wake people up. He is also shaking our enemies, those who God has determined to be like Pharaoh and has hardened their hearts toward God. These people believe they are God and cannot fall.

As we move into the season of intense shaking, stay strong. I spoke to you yesterday about the fiery trials. We may have to walk through a rough spot or two to get to the other side. God will not leave us nor forsake us. He will take care of his children.

I want to encourage you today to walk by faith that God will not let the shaking be too intense. Walk by faith that he will lead and guide his people. We cannot walk by sight. Things may look scary. Things may seem intense, but just as the children of Israel had the blood over the door post of their house. We have the blood of Jesus applied to our lives.

I Cor 15:57-58 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

The synonyms for the word stedfast: committed, dedicated, dependable, steady, determined, relentless, unwavering, firm and true.

A person that is steadfast, has their minds made up that a course of action or a belief is right and they will not change from that belief. In other words, they are unshakeable. This is something we need to pray, “Lord help me to be unshakeable and steadfast when it comes to your truth. But anything that is a man made idea or religion, help me to shake it loose from my belief system, until nothing is left but Your truth.”

The above verse tell us that we have victory through Jesus and we need to be unmoved by the things the enemy is doing. We need to be full of the work of the Lord so that our labor is not in vain.

Psalm 1:1-4 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

There is a lot packed in these four verses. Blessed is the man that does not do evil and does not stand in the way of sinners finding God. Some so-called church people will stand in the way of sinners finding God by their judgmental and self-righteous attitudes.

We are to delight in the law of the Lord and meditate on it day and night. If we do, we will be like a tree that is planted by the rivers of water.

These trees must have deep roots to keep from being overtaken by flood waters. Remember that when the enemy comes in like a flood the spirit of God will raise a wall or dam to protect us.

Trees planted by the water will not suffer from drought, they will always have water. If we are planted in God we will not suffer spiritual drought, because we stay in the word. We will have all the living water we need to keep us strong enough to bring forth fruit. God will prosper the work of our hands.

But the ungodly are not planted and are like chaff which the wind blows away. They are not unshakeable. Their foundation is on the sand. There is no one they can trust to not betray them and their evil plans.

But the Godly are on a firm foundation, the rock, Christ Jesus. The storms can come and the winds may blow, but we will still be standing when the storm is over, because we are steadfast and unmovable.

Seriously, take some time to think about how determined and steadfast you are about standing on the word of God. What if you had an ultimatum, bow to the evil ideas and deny Christ or die?  People, this is a serious thing. I try to be upbeat and encouraging every day, but I want you to be steadfast and strong in your faith. I don’t want you to be caught off guard.

We must have a made up mind to follow Jesus at all costs. I know from other hard things I have faced in life, that God gives us strength when we need it. He would give us strength in that moment too. If we are prayed up and have a firm foundation of his word in our hearts.

Be steadfast and unmovable, be strong in the Lord and the power of his might.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
