9 STEPS TO BLOSSOMING IN YOUR LIFE.

 Isaiah 43:19 says “God is set to do a new thing, it will spring forth.

 To SPRING  means to rise, leap, move or act suddenly. To spring is to be suddenly released from  a coiled or constrained position. When a new thing is springing forth, it’s like a flower opening or blossoming in springtime.

STEP 1.

Transform from within.

When a plant is springing forth, it starts from within the seed that was planted, then it pushes through the soil and springs forth. There is a transformation from within that seed. Your newness, your change, your strength, starts from within.

When you allow the Word of God to bear fruits in your spirit, when you change your thoughts to progressive thoughts and change your confession to align with the Word of God, there will be an outward manifestation of the inward transformation.

You must break free from depression, low self-esteem and other limitations of the enemy.

TRANSFORMATION FROM WITHIN ATTRACTS EXTERNAL HELP.

 STEP 2.

Move past your pain.

Have you tabernacled at the place of your pain?. In the book of Ruth we see two women who made it back to Israel after suffering losses in their lives. Naomi was able to help position Ruth for Boaz because Naomi MOVED PAST HER PAIN. The loss of her son, Ruth’s husband was  left behind and she embraced the future.

Actually  Naomi was also a hero of that story and not just Ruth, because she made it happen for Ruth.

STEP 3.

Cast away negative garments.

Mark 10:50  “And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus”.  You need to cast away every cloak of limitation like Blind Bartimaeus did before he received his sight.  You must intentionally remove cloaks of fear, insecurity, self pity, low self-esteem and victim mentality so you can work out the vision that will make you blossom.

STEP 4.

Find out and walk in your purpose.

A life of purpose will keep you busy and focused. It is interesting to note that Rebekah and Rachel at different times in their lives were at their places of assignment. Rebekah was out fetching water when Abraham’s servant who was on assignment to find a wife for Isaac, located her. Likewise, Rachel was out feeding and tending her father’s sheep when her suitor (Jacob) met her by the well.

Walk in purpose, take your pitcher on your shoulder and go get the water of life for a thirsty soul. What vision has God given you to keep and nurture?, keep it well.

YOU GET BUSY FOR GOD AND YOU WILL GET SORTED OUT BY GOD.

STEP 5.

God does not need a perfect status before he can use you.

Romans 8:1. “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit”.  God used Kathryn Kulman greatly despite her marital status, infact it was when she allowed herself fall for the wrong man that things went very tough for her.

Release yourself to the work of God and walls of opposition against you will crumble.

STEP 6.

Keep hope alive.

Prov 13:12 says: “Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life”.

Psalm 31:24 also says “Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord”.

You have the responsibility to keep the promises of God alive in your heart until they manifest.

STEP 7.

Have a nice disposition to people.

Nice people attract others.  Proverbs 18:24 says “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother”.

What do people find in you?

Prov 18:22 says “Whoso FINDETH a wife FINDETH a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord”.

Prov 31:10 says “Who can FIND a virtuous woman….?

It is what you make of yourself that people will find in you.

STEP  8.

Engage in spiritual warfare regularly.

Isaiah 62: 6-7 says “I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence, And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth”.

You must pray through and without ceasing for your life to blossom.

Shalom!
