What is it that stops you

in HeartChurch3 years ago

Jeremiah 1:4-10
4. Therefore the word of the LORD came to me, saying:
5. Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I sanctified you; I gave you as a prophet to the nations.
6. And I said, Ah! ah, Lord Jehovah! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child.
7. And the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for whatsoever I send thee, thou shalt go, and whatsoever I command thee, thou shalt speak.
8. Fear not before them: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
9. And the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth, and the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
10. Behold, I have this day set thee over nations and over kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down, to destroy, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.

The most beautiful thing here is to know that God began to relate to us from our mother's womb, that is why He loves us, He cares for us, He is merciful, He is just with us. God does not call us because we have qualities, nor when we are older, He does not call us when we were not even born, He alone knows what He will do with us, regardless of age or qualities, He is Sovereign and if we already know all this, then what stops us from serving or believing God? Is it as the prophet says, that you are a child? Or is it that you do not know how to speak? Then God says you will say and do all that I command you, do not be afraid!

So if God gives us that command, what's stopping us? He puts the words in our mouth, we just have to trust Him. And then He says that He puts us over nations and over kingdoms to uproot and to destroy, to ruin and to tear down, to build and to plant; we must uproot the works of evil and destroy the plans of the enemy, we must ruin what God wants to assign against us, we must tear down any argument of evil against our generation and so we will build and plant in people who want to praise and glorify the name of our God.
So if God calls you by name, forms you, sanctifies you, touches your mouth, tells you what you were called by Him, gives you a vision and a purpose, what stops you?
God did not call you to stop, He called you to move forward, because His purpose for you is greater than any circumstance or problem.
