Unstoppable

Is it Superman: Spiderman, The Green Lantern or Underdog: or is it a Spirit filled Christian, on fire and living for the Lord that is unstoppable?

   Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans  8:37-39

“Talents are better nurtured in solitude: character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.”

-       Johann Goethe

Every journey needs a first step to start

Every fire grows from a single spark

A great symphony begins with just one note

One voice can give the whole world hope

There’s no impossible, nothing we can’t face

The tallest mountains are moved by a seed of faith.

Come together, don’t you know that you are not alone.

We will rise up

For the Kingdom come

Lay down our lives

For the sake of love

If God’s with us

We know that,

Nothings gonna stop up.

-       David Fry, Ben McDonald and Ben Glover (lyrics from ‘Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us’)

For the true unstoppable nature of the Christian to be realized, evidenced and attested too – that individual must step out beyond the confines of their comfort zones and into the battle of life – which belongs to the Lord.

It is not our power or our intellect that makes us unstoppable: instead it is the power of God within us.  It is The Holy Spirit, that when unleashed and given absolute liberty, can accomplish greater things in us and through us than we can even hope to imagine.

Sadly, many Christians seem to be caught ‘dead in their tracks’ so to speak because they have failed to give liberty to the Holy Spirit of God within them to completely live throughout them in everything they do.

What about you?   Are you unstoppable?

Today’s Prayer

Father, I want to be unstoppable for your kingdom and your glory, so let your spirit loose in me and then give me the good sense not to get in His way.
