When You Are At 20%

Psalm 51:10-13 “God, create a clean heart for me and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not banish me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore the joy of your salvation to me, and sustain me by giving me a willing spirit. Then I will teach the rebellious your ways, and sinners will return to you.” ~CSB

I know you are tired. I know in this life you have tried very hard to make some things happen and it seems you continue to fail. You are like a cell phone at 20%. Sometimes it seems no matter how much you spend time in the Word of God, no matter how close you think your relationship is with The Father, you feel like the righteous things you are attempting to accomplish, just won’t come together.

The obstacles could be anything; from having an understanding with your children. Lack of solutions to disagreements with your spouse. Not knowing how stable your finances will be in the future. All of these things can take your personal power of peace away from you. This will cause your vision of God’s power in His grace and mercy, to cloud up and weaken your relationship with Him.

It is time to realize that you are at a place in your life where, under your own power, you can do nothing. And that is ok. This is where God takes over and moves you. But you must become a faithful and willing vessel. Ask God to, “...create a clean heart…” in you. Allow yourself to embrace your ‘rebirth’ in Christ and become that new creation.


Then, ask God to, “...Restore the joy in your salvation…” Remember you have a spiritual goal that has been set. Jesus has prepared a place for you. All you have to do is continue to journey on in His name. Then, embrace your desire to ‘want’ to do the spiritual work of the Lord by asking God to recharge your, “...willing spirit…” Ask Him to restore you drive so that you can get up and pick up where you left off under your own strength; and now continue on as a vessel under His strength. 


When you do this, your life will be a testimony for others to look upon and follow. When you allow yourself to be in position, God will do the rest. His seed will move from you to others. And it is because of that action on your part you will, “...teach the rebellious…” God’s ways, and, “...sinners will return…” to Him!


​God created you to endure so don’t give up. Ask Him for a recharge and watch the renewed spirit go to work in you! May God continue to bless, protect and direct you as you journey in Jesus’ name.


Amen
