From my Book Word up! Chapter Three – It’s Time to Move!

Chapter 3: Now Word – It’s Time to Move!

Deuteronomy 1:6 –

"The Lord our God spoke unto us in Horeb, saying, ‘Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount.’"

Deuteronomy 2:3 –

"And the Lord spoke unto me, saying, ‘Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.’"

Horeb, the mountain range where Mount Sinai was located, means "desolate place." The Israelites had camped there for about a year, but God called them to break camp and move forward.

The same call applies to us today. We must not get stuck in the past, in fear, or in places that God never intended for us to remain.

🚨 Are you stuck in a cycle that is keeping you from your Promised Land?

🔹 Stuck in a job with no future? 🔹 Stuck in a relationship going nowhere? ("Once I get a divorce, we’ll get married." He told you that five years ago!) 🔹 Stuck in a business partnership with no vision?

The Israelites had the promise of a new land—a future of abundance. But before they could possess it, they had to move.

📖 Numbers 23:19 – "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?"

Now is the Time to Go Where God Leads You

📖 Genesis 12:1-3 – "Now the Lord had said unto Abram, ‘Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will show thee... and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.’"

When God says MOVE, obedience leads to blessing. Places matter—especially when God tells you to go.

📌 Elijah was sent to Zarephath, where a widow sustained him. (1 Kings 17:9) 📌 Jesus told His disciples to prepare the Passover in an "upper room." (Mark 14:15) 📌 The Holy Spirit was poured out in Jerusalem, as Jesus instructed. (Acts 1:4-5) 📌 Naaman had to dip in the Jordan seven times to be healed. (2 Kings 5:10)

🚀 You will succeed somewhere, but you will not succeed everywhere.

A sinner who understands decision-making will succeed faster than a Christian who is waiting for a miracle but never takes action.

📖 The Bible is a book about decisions: ✅ What you choose to focus on. ✅ What offenses you choose to forgive. ✅ Where you invest your time, energy, and faith. ✅ Whose opinions you trust.

Key Point: Never stay where God has not assigned you!

🚨 If you do, your weakness will flourish, and your strength will die.

A fish out of water will die, but once it is placed back in the water, its movement becomes electrifying, and its true potential is revealed.

A Higher Level of Thinking

📖 Isaiah 43:19 – "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it?"

When God is doing something new in your life, you must elevate your thinking.

🔥 Dream Big!

Many people get trapped in small thinking because they believe that nothing new can happen. Solomon, in his backslidden state, said:

📖 Ecclesiastes 1:9 – "There is nothing new under the sun."

But the prophet Jeremiah said otherwise:

📖 Lamentations 3:22-23 – "It is of the Lord’s mercies

Theme: The Road to the Cross

“Persecution Before Resurrection”

📖 Main Text: Isaiah 53:3–7 - 3. He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth.

📖 Focus Thought: You cannot get to resurrection power without first going through persecution pressure.

🎯 INTRODUCTION

Before there was an empty tomb…
Before there was a rolled-away stone…
Before there was a “He is Risen”…

👉 There was suffering.
There was rejection.
There was persecution.

Jesus didn’t just die…
He went through something to get there.
If you want resurrection in your life, you must understand the road that leads to it.

🔑 KEY POINT 2:

He Was Abandoned by His Disciples

“Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.”

🧠 Truth:

People who shouted with you may not suffer with you.
