Making Room

October 11, 2017 //  by Nikol//  Leave a Comment

He had been living in a place where God had blessed him.  (Notice the past tense)
He had reaped a hundred fold. (Again, in the past.)
And he became very wealthy.

His enemy was not amused for God had made him too powerful.

So, the enemy started to cut off much needed resources. And God allowed it.
Forcing him to move.

One day, he found a place no one else claimed.

“For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.” (Gen. 26:22)

There was room there for all of God’s blessings.

Sometimes, in order for God to bless us, we have to go to be willing to let go of the familiar.

We have to go to another place that is able to handle all of the blessings God has in store for us.
We have to be be willing to go to a place where He has made room for us.  Not where we feel comfortable.

What place are you not willing to let go of?
What is holding you back?
Is it memories of blessings past?
What if God is making room for you elsewhere, so He can bless you in a new place?

Are you willing to go?
