Forgotten
Words of Encouragement
If you have found yourself believing a version of who you are that does not match what Daddy God has spoken over your life, you are not alone, and this is not a new struggle. Even those who walked out of Egypt with their own eyes, who saw the sea split and ate bread from heaven, forgot within their own lifetime. Forgetting is not a sign of how far gone you are. It is simply evidence that this has always been the adversary's oldest scheme, and it has never worked because it is true, only because it is repeated often enough to feel true. The remedy has not changed either. Spend time with Daddy God. Spend time in His Word. Let sonship be restored, not through effort, but through presence. Your life can still be the poem it was always meant to be, and the world around you needs to see it remembered.
Life
Words of Encouragement
If you have felt like your faith has become something you occasionally reach for rather than something you actually live from, take heart. Sir Gregory's word today is not a rebuke meant to discourage you, but an invitation to remember something that has been true about you the whole time. You are already seated with Christ. You have not lost your place in the throne room. You have simply, understandably, gotten absorbed in what was right in front of you, the way anyone does when life moves fast and demands attention. The good news is that looking up does not require earning anything back. The position was never lost. It only requires remembering. Lift your eyes today. See from where you are actually seated. And watch how differently everything looks from there.
Focus
Words of Encouragement
You are not just a physical person having an occasional spiritual experience. You are a spiritual person having a physical experience — and the spiritual dimension of your life is just as real, just as active, and just as important as everything you can see and touch and measure. Your inner being is being renewed right now — today, in this moment, in this season — even if your outer person feels the weight of time and trouble. The difficulties you are facing are not wasted. They are not random. They are producing something of such eternal weight and glory that Paul says there is simply no comparison. Wake up to that today friend. Both eyes open — natural and spiritual. That is the fully alive, fully awake Kingdom life you were designed for. And it is available to you right now.
