HOLD ON TO NOTHING SO DEAR!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: GENESIS 22:1-15
A wise man prayed: “Lord, do not grant to me whatever cannot part with. Lord, do not allow me to receive anything I cannot give out.” Oh, welcome to another STORY TO GLORY devotional hour! God is speaking to you today about contentment in life and ministry and the above prayer is what you should pray daily! The truth is that a man/woman, who is comfortable but is not satisfied, will eventually get discomfort as a harvest!

In your strong desire to dream bigger dreams and move to higher grounds in life, don’t forget that the starting point is being thankful for where you are and being content with the little you have now. Until you are thankful for where you are, God cannot take you to where you should be. In John 11:41, Jesus said: “…Father I thank thee…” just before He commanded Lazarus to rise from the grave! Giving thanks for your dead Lazarus (dead, delayed or stagnant dream) will provoke its resumption!
Remember Abraham and Isaac! God will not give you what He knows you will I not part with! Hold nothing in life so dear, because someday, sometime, your God may tear your hands open and take it back! Hear Hebrews 13:5: “Let your conversation be without covetousness. and be content with such things as ye have. For lie hath said: ‘1 will never leave thee, nor forsake thee” Don’t forget that: “Life is a festival only to the wise! Seen from the nook and chimney side of prudence, it wears a ragged and dangerous front” (Essays).

No matter how 2019 has been, refuse to worry! Read what Dinah Craik told her son: “The secret of life is not to do what one likes, but to try to like that which one has to do.” This is being content with your little, while pressing on to your Promised Land. Pursue it in the remaining days of 2019. HOLD NOTHING SO DEAR THAT YOU CANNOT LET GO! BE WISE!
