How can you receive without first emptying what's in your hand?
How can you expect a great movement without first getting on your knees and pray?
How can you expect the walls to crumble, if you don't first find a way for it - pray?
How can you see the dust in the other person's eyes when you can't even see the plank in your very own eyes?
How can you listen without first hearing?
How can you expect for a good shady tree without first sowing the seed and watering it?
How can you expect people to see your light when you are hiding it?
How can you see the mountain to be moved without first having the faith it will?
And how can you hope for a change, if you don't first be willing to change?
Chains must first be broken in order to set those who are chained free.
Price must be paid in the process.
Our old lifestyles must be changed to what's birthed from the fruit of the Spirit.
Live a life of dependence on God.
He can only help if you put your first step forward of dependence upon Him. 1% you move, 99% He'll move. At times, you'll have to move 50%, then another 50% He'll move. It's always a two way connection.
That's why its a relationship.
"He will come—but when He comes, will He find faith on the earth?” -- Chandler
