That Higher Ground

 brand new year has come giving us   brand new opportunities for change and   success. With this new segment of time is   more reason to try to accomplish those   things dreamed of in the prior year. At any   rate if we can see that all things within our   heart can become new, a new attitude, melody, a new way of life more diligently worked out than the one before it, a new project or relationship with new hope or a pet dog. If we can focus on the new and resist the enemy of last year, all things can become new.

I spent so much time trying to convince the LORD that this trial was more than I could handle and seeking out scripture to say, well Cain said it was more than he could bear and your altered the situation. In this process, I wasted my progress that could have been in achieving nothing when I could have been demonstrating faith in the LORD and confessing that the LORD never puts more on us than we can bear, and that truly this is for my good as Joseph said.

Though devastated by circumstances, if had opened my mouth and expressed what the word of God said about the LORD’s relationship with me and all of his children, I could have been progressing toward the finish line of that sprint. It is for my good, it is for a purpose, and now LORD I seek that purpose that you are trying to enact in my life.


That higher ground that you are trying to place me on, I accept, and request the wisdom for the procedure in which to get there. I cold have been seeking the LORD’s direction and solutions thus acting out his improvement in me, by Him, as he already knew that I can be all that he wanted me to be. I can do this, because you are going to help me do this. There is a reason; it’s not just a trial that we are waiting for to pass. No matter how unbearable, when we seek the LORD’s wisdom and purpose in our University of Jesus Christ Service we can past the test. And be enlightened.

He is the author and finisher of our faith. As a mother eagle drops the eaglet off of a high pinnacle in order that it prove its elevating ability in flying, He pushes us out of the safety of the nest and says; stop screaming and crying, shush the pity party and realize that you can handle this altitude.

 Once , we’ve learned this as future situations proceed past us by, we have greater faith to stand equal to the test, and to show others that they too are equal to every test that the LORD allows in His teaching process of our advancing years through His University for God’s Over-Comers.


In Job’s multitude of suffering, the LORD told him to stand on his feet, and answer Him. God’s man shall not squirm in the mire of despair day and night, but to realize who God was and the vastness of His creations and abilities. In this way, Job could realize that in his righteous relationship with the LORD he could seek the wisdom of God in order to take him through this rough time. He was a righteous servant of God, and he could depend on the LORD’s righteousness for deliverance in this   storm  of life..


Job 38:31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

—Try and then try again, seek, and then seek again, ask and then ask again, for the wisdom of the ages is offered to us as we journey to our destination of Kings, priests and officials in the New Jerusalem of God. Knowing the LORD, we are not allowed to take only one class at a time, but are caused to face many “hazardous” situations during our education. He is looking for an overall high score and grade point average in attitude, as we focus on the purification, and educations of our souls in the wisdom that surpasses the understanding of men. All must make the Dean’s List. And Jesus is the dean. It is not too much for us, we are equal to every task and plan that the LORD has laid out before us. Our surrender to the person and Word of God will surly bring us through to the finish line. With the wreath of a winner’s gold medal. —

  I can do all things because Jesus Christ causes me to have the ability to. —  —  Philippians 4:13 —
