Title: “Time’s Slippin’ Away – Make It Happen”
Today’s the deadline to have my book sent to my editor and publisher so you
already know I’ll be sitting in front of this computer from sun up till sun down
brainstorming and typing as fast as I can. I’m on my grind sure enough, but I realized that
many of you need to step up and get going on the things that God’s empowered and
equipped you to do. I really since an urgency in your life to burry the excuses in the sand
and pick up where you left off. It’s time to get the plan out of the dream category, and
move it into your reality in box. The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Let’s get to
work!
Let’s decide right now that whatever happened to derail us in our past only succeeded in
slowing down the process, not destroying it. What you saw back then that you knew was
orchestrated by God is still waiting on your leap of faith to bring it out of the attic. It’s been
tucked away under some old items that have started collecting dust and cobwebs and now
is the time to pull it out and get it done. Whatever it is, I’m telling you that God’s provided
a platform for its exposure. You just have to do the work to get it done.
If you’ve been watching the olympics then you know that the ones who finish and win the
gold medal are the ones who give it their all at the optimum time. It’s not just about having
goals and training for victory, but it’s about precise execution at the time the official fires
the starting gun. It’s about nailing the routine that you’ve spent your life working on at the
very moment you hear the music play and see the judge give the ‘go-ahead’ nod. It’s about
fighting with every breath left in your body to be the best even when others around you
say it hasn’t been or cannot be done.
So how long my friend are you going to talk about what shall be one day but not do
whatever it takes today to make it happen now? How much longer are you going to talk
about your vision that will materialize when you finally have provision for it? How long
will you allow the barriers of doubt and uncertainty run interference in your
accomplishing what God’s already ordained? I mean if not now, when?
I’m just fired up in my spirit right now at what I see happening for the body of Christ, well
in particular, for those who have a Joshua spirit in this brief season of triumph. The heart of
a believer is attuned to what God has planned to manifest in certain moments of life. It’s
important that you believe beyond what you can explain and that you give effort beyond
what others would do themselves. It’s not going to jump into your lap because of your
intense prayer life, but it will be close enough for you to grab if you’re willing to chase it
down and make it yours. Remember, time’s slippin’ away – make it happen and make it
happen NOW!
EVERYTHING WE DO MOVING FORWARD WILL BE INTENTIONAL AND DRIVEN WITH
PURPOSE TO REPRESENT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IN THE BEST POSSIBLE LIGHT!
NOTHING WILL BE DONE WITH ENERGY LESS THAN OUR BEST AND EFFORT BELOW
OUR MAXIMUM POTENTIAL.
OUR SERVICE IS LOCAL, BUT OUR REACH IS GLOBAL – SO WE CANNOT REDUCE OUR
PRESENTATION DOWN TO WHAT’S CONVENIENT, BUT RATHER WE MUST RAISE IT TO
THAT WHICH IS EXPLOSIVE!
Get ready for major change that’s coming systematically, intellectually, purposefully, and
professionally. Nothing we do moving forward will be done haphazardly, sloppily, poorly,
or carnally.
We Are the LIGHT!
Sincerely,
Pastor J.E. Chandler, Sr.
