Don’t Drag Your Feet

When God brought the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, He said the Promised Land was theirs to go in and possess. He promised they would defeat every enemy and come into abundance. But when the ten spies came back with the report that the people were too big and powerful, the people became afraid and wanted to go back to being slaves. Instead of staying with a committed faith in the promise, they dragged their feet in unbelief. What happened? They never made it into the Promised Land because the promised hope wasn’t mixed with faith.

God’s promises give us hope. What you’re mixing with the promises will determine whether they come alive and you see God’s favor and blessing and receive everything He’s promised. The Scripture says, “Without faith it’s impossible to please God.” He doesn’t necessarily need your talent, your ability, or your education. He needs your faith to get in agreement with Him, to take that promise and believe it will come to pass.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You for the promise that You always lead me to triumph through Jesus. Thank You that I can take Your promises and keep my faith in agreement with You by believing that You will bring them to pass. I declare that I will not drag my feet in unbelief. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
