How Do YOU Respond...👊🏾🖐🏾🤲🏾

HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO OBSTACLES? I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, least after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified. 1 Corinthians 9:26-27, ESV How excellently we live to reflect God’s glory back to Him every day is our boot camp of faith, our training ground for the assignment He has for us. When I was in boot camp, I learned to shine my shoes, keep my bunk immaculate, and show respect to every other soldier around me. It is also where I was tested. In boot camp I was presented with obstacles and told to overcome them. If I did, I was presented with bigger obstacles; if I didn’t, I was sent back to the end of the line to start over again. As God recruits us and begins to work within us for our growth, we face a similar series of obstacles courses to overcome in prayer. How we respond to these situations will show us how large an assignment God can trust us with. Father,

I submit to Your divine boot camp because this is how I will become prepared for the mission I have been given.

Empower me, Lord, to overcome each test.

I don’t want to repeat any obstacles.

Cause me to grow in You so I will be fit for my assignment.

In the name of Jesus...

Amen 🙏🏾
