Leave the past and move to the future

God wants you to leave the past and move to the future. You might ask “how can I move to the future if I still have the issues of the past with me?”

The answer is YOU need to leave the past before the ISSUES of the past leave you. You might wonder what this actually means. Let me explain it to you.

You need to come out of the ‘past-tense’ and move to the future greatness that God has for you. You need to take your eyes off the pains of your past and keep your eyes on the future greatness that awaits you.

Jesus came across several people who had ‘tensed’ past and his message was ‘MOVE FORWARD’! Once he came across an ‘invalid’ who couldn’t walk for 38 years. Jesus asked one simple question ‘Do you want to get well?’ The answer should be yes or no. But this man was living so much in the past that he mourned and complained about his past “Sir,’ the invalid replied, ‘I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.’’ Then Jesus said to him, ‘Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.’ At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.5

His word to you today is “Stop mourning your loss, pain, troubles and mistakes and start walking… ‘Move forward..’”!
