“Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” (Genesis 22:12 NIV)
by Chris
The truth is God does not want it all.
He wants all of you but he doesn't want all from you. He just wants to test your heart and see if you are willing to give Him everything.
But you must first show that you are willing to release what you have in order to make room for what He has for you.
You have to learn how to release to receive.
God has been challenging me personally in this area. I found myself holding on to what I had with expectancy for more. I just wanted God to add to what I already had.
But there is no faith in that.
God showed me whatever I release by faith, I will receive back in abundance.
I received that word and have seen it manifest in my life. I have released money to God and been blessed with wisdom and understanding how to generate more than I initially asked Him for.
That's not it...He has blessed my business, marriage, and children.
He will do the same for you if you just trust that what you release to Him he will return in better condition than he received it.
Don't just take my word for it...take His word for it.
Lets pray...
"Father, I claim the spirit of release on my life right now. Show me the areas I need to let go to make room for your abundant blessing. I know what you have for me is greater than what I currently possess. Lord I trust you and receive the spirit of release in Jesus name. Amen"
