Philippians 3:13b

You ain't taking about nothing. I'm tired of hearing about this and that, yesterday, and last week. Listen, to me, because I want to give you the good word. Didn't the Bible tell you to to forget about what you said and did last week. I know you made a big mistake on your job, and you got a ticket for speeding in a school zone. But, go on. Forget about it. Don't sweat what happen yesterday. Forget it! So what, your wife forgot your birthday. I keep on telling you to "forget it." Listen, the prophet Isaiah had the good word from God, writing, "Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Listen, you can't remeber what happen last year, neither can you consider, saying, "what if," about what you didn't do that you thought you should have done. Don't even consider what should, or could, or would have happened if you had done this or that. No, no, forget it. Yes, you made a poor choice; yes, you got yourself in debt; yes, you act a fool. But, forget it. Refuse to remember what when down yesterday.Why? God is doing a new thing. The new thing that God is doing he is doing now. Do you not see what God is doing? Listen, you will miss this thing that God is doing in your life;in your ministry, if you are looking at yesterday. You can't see what God is doing today, if you eyes are on what you did yesterday. Now when you look backward you are look at yourself because God is not present in the past. And you know as well as I that there in no power in self. But when you look forward you are looking at God. You see humanity knows about what happened yesterday. Hey, just check out the news. But no man, or woman, can predict the future. That's why the future is of God. It's a God thing. God is a futurist God. A God who moves forward, a progressive God, demanding a progressive people. God is moving, so you've gotta move, if you want the new thing that God is doing. Can't you see it? Well, if you can't it only because your eyes have a backward look.Don't look back and miss God. Look forward! In the words of old man Paul, forget those things which are behind, and reach forth for those thing which are before ( Philippians 3:13b).Now listen, you can't reach out and touch those things that God have for you if you are looking backward. Come on, give me a forward look. I know you can. Yes, you can; yes, you can. Oh, yes you can. __________________________________________________
