DON'T LIVE IN THE PAST!!

"Tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you". Joshua 3:5. My friend, here Joshua is talking to a nation whose yesterdays were a long list of repeated failures and rebellion against God. They had been convicted, judged, punished, and reinstated frequently by the God they'd flagrantly sinned against. But Joshua said to the people "Consecrate yourself, realign yourself with God's plan and watch Him begin to work in your life. In the New Testament, Martha is concerned with the HERE and Now, and doesn't look very far into the future even though she knows Jesus is her Messiah. But Mary trusted in the Lord for her future, and she doesn't care about the value of her possessions; so she anointed His feet with the most valuable things she had. Judas, Humm..lived only for the present. He didn't care about the Lord, or any person. He was totally self-centered. Well, I have a news for you- whatever you past was, just when the enemy has convinced you that with your past God couldn't possibly have a future for you, God calls you to prepare yourself so He can bless you! God is fully aware of your yesterdays, but He's much more focused about your tomorrows. My friend, DON'T GIVE UP YOUR TOMORROWS BY BUILDING MONUMENTS TO YOUR PAST FAILURES. Yes my friend, I am talking to you and you know it, right??? Yeah...GOOD!
