Focus

Acts 1:6 “So when the apostles were with Jesus, they kept asking him, ‘Lord, has the time come for you to free Israel and restore our kingdom?’”

My apostles trusted me but did not understand my ways. They had a specific idea as to what salvation I was bringing. To them it was a military style victory over their enemies and those who oppressed them. You today are equally misguided. Do not believe you know how my victory will come. Do not believe you know what it will look like or when it will arrive. My salvation is guaranteed. First and foremost, you have already achieved my salvation – the salvation of your eternal soul. That is the only one that matters. You are my child and I will have you with me for eternity. Right now, you are in a war for souls. You are in a battle against an enemy whose only real goal is to separate my children from me in whatever way possible. Do not believe you know what this battle will look like, what will happen, how it will end. Just listen to me and understand what I would have you do and obey. Yes, this war is mine. Yes, I am victorious in the end. But, the end is not today and you do not know when it will come. So, focus on today. Focus on whom I would have you reach today as my warrior. Focus on bringing me out of the shadows into the light into the minds and hearts of your fellows. That is the aspect of war which concerns you. The rest is to be put aside. Trust me. I will take care of you. I will guide you. Just look to see what is in front of you and where I would have you walk. (2021)
