July 17-19

A few weeks back when i was with my family i was talking to them all about prophecy and basically just filling them in on how to prophecy and going to the Bible to read passages and learn on what the Word had to say on being prophetic. Anyways, my mom then wanted to try and get a word for everyone so she got Philippians 3:16 which was exactly what i need to hear at the time, and even now.
If this verse doesn't provoke you i don't know what will...
Philippians 3:16

however, let us keep living by the same standard to which we have attained.

This verse along with the verses preceding and following are very encouraging yet add a level of responsibility that should cause us to go back to our first love and seek the Lord in prayer and fasting.
So i'd encourage you to take a quick look at Philippians 3 and dive in to the deep and get some oil. Remember, your either moving forward with God or moving backward. As long as we are saying 'Yes' in our hearts and putting our best foot forward to seek Him throughout our day, He will move in our lives and take us higher. So get down with the Holy Spirit and pick His brain to find out whats on the Fathers heart for you this week, and how He wants to take you to a higher place. Stay at the natrual standard you've laid out for yourself through fasting/pray/quiet time with the Lord but remember He's got ya in His hand and He'll have His way no matter what. :)
