The body has many abilities, and one of them is ability to do more than one thing simultaneously. You can eat and talk, comb your hair and walk, cook and watch TV simultaneously. But there’s one thing we can’t do simultaneously, and that’s try to go forward whilst walking backward.
We all agree that God created us perfectly. Everything in our body is in the right place for the right reason. He made our body point forward, so we must always look, walk and move forward.
Just as our bodies must keep moving, we should want our lives to keep moving. You should want to see improvements, achievements, and things working out in all areas of your life. But some of you reading this, are not moving on at all. The Bible says:
“Yet they… went backward and not forward.” Jeremiah 7:24
Is this how you feel? Are you trying your best to move forward, but you are actually going backward?
On many occasions in the Bible, God motivates His people to move forward, which is the same thing that He does today. God doesn’t want you to get stuck or go backward; that’s why He gave you faith.
Faith is like a machine that helps you keep moving in life.
To you who say – I feel like my life is going backward. Do not give up! You need to use your faith to help you achieve the blessed life God wants for you. But above all, to receive the Holy Spirit. He is the only one who can help you move forward in all areas of your life.
Now it’s time for your life to move on.
May the God of the Bible bless you,
Bishop Bira Joshua
