Let us be thankful, then, because we receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken. Let us be grateful and worship God in a way that will please him, with reverence and awe.

Hebrews 12:26-29 (GNT)

 

Change and transition do not come in neat little packages. But God always uses them to reframe and change our perspectives, separating what is important from what is merely a distraction. Thus, we must allow God to shake what needs to be shaken out to remain rooted in an unshakeable kingdom.

We must learn to embrace change and pursue God's purpose with eager hearts and open hands. While God's way of change may appear disruptive, it provides us with far greater rest than anything we have previously experienced. If you let God guide you through what lies ahead, He will provide you with everything you need for the journey.

Don't act and behave like grasshoppers when God has created you to live a glorious life in which you eat grapes and fight giants. In the Bible, the Israelites lost the Promised Land because they measured their faith by the size of giants rather than the size of God. When God appears small to us, it means we have stopped growing and expecting from Him, leaving our faith fragile and easily lost.

Change begins with choosing to see as God sees. This stems from a genuine desire for our Father to go to any length to ensure that we truly step out and shine as sons and daughters in a world in desperate need of change.
