Choose the Good and Leave Behind the Bad!
I just have to share this POWERFUL and TIMELY message from Marsha Burns from the Spirit of Prophecy website! Be blessed and encouraged!
Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — September 23, 2008: As you prepare to enter a new spiritual year, you can and must choose what to take with you and what to leave behind. It will benefit you to take all that you have learned through the fiery trials you have endured – – the things that have enhanced your understanding and spiritual strength. And, leave behind all that has undermined your confidence and boldness in My kingdom, says the Lord, — the things that left you with feelings of condemnation and failure. It will be like sorting fruit when you keep what is good and throw out what is rotten.
Jeremiah 24:3-7 Then the LORD said to me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” And I said, “Figs, the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, which cannot be eaten, they are so bad.” Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge those who are carried away captive from Judah, whom I have sent out of this place for their own good, into the land of the Chaldeans. For I will set My eyes on them for good, and I will bring them back to this land; I will build them and not pull them down, and I will plant them and not pluck them up. Then I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am the LORD; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God, for they shall return to Me with their whole heart.”
