The Best Life

I love what God says in Isaiah 43:19 – Behold, I am doing a new thing, now it springs forth, can you not perceive it?

Years ago I was in Canada in the wintertime when I walked into a building that had two sets of automatic doors. There was about a three-meter gap between them. I walked through the first set of doors that opened quickly for me, but I stood in front of the second set, waiting and waiting for them to open.  I didn’t know what was going on.  It didn’t seem like these doors were opening, so I turned around and noticed that the first set of doors were closing – I became really concerned that I would be trapped in that gap.  But then the first set of doors finally closed completely and the second set of doors opened.

I had to go beyond the first set of doors in order to walk through the second set.

And it’s the same way in life – you need to let go of the things of the past – your failures and disappointments – let all those things go.  You cannot change the past, but you can determine that this is a new season – God’s going to do new things.  And for that to happen you need to let those first doors close and walk through the new set of doors.

You see what’s in front of you is more important than what’s behind you.  I believe that if you have the right attitude, you can give birth to more in the future than you’ve lost in the past.

Quit looking back – this is a new day.  It might seem like your dreams have passed, but God can resurrect your dreams, He is a supernatural God.  This is a day of new things.
