that way and old determinations running right on his heel, Determination knew without a doubt he’d have that old fox this day, he could feel it, and became excited about the prospect of finally getting that old fox out of his hair and away from the chickens at last.
That fox cut this way and that way and finally leap over a hidden hole, which Determination didn’t see because of the single mindness of the chase, he ran right in the hole and fell some six feet deep, knocking the wind from his lungs and dizzy. By and by he came to himself and began to assess his situation, which didn’t look all that good.
Determination jumped up at the top of the hole trying to get out but didn’t have enough momentum to accomplish the task. He did this several times before he noticed that every time he jumped and try to get his claws into the edge for support to cling and pull out he’d fall back down, but dirt would also come from the side back down in the hole, so he reasoned that if he continued to jump and pull dirt down in the hole, he could eventually pack it under him and cause him to slowly rise to a point of advantage for escape. This he did, he’d jump for the opening, and pull dirt down in the hole, he’d then turn around packing the loose dirt under his feet, Determination wasn’t aware how long it took him or just when it occurred but after a while the dirt under him begun to rise higher and higher until at last, he was able to escape his imprisonment, but the fox was gone.
Using this illustration are you as determine to achieve those things you strive for in life, or are you one of those who fall down at the sound of the bell?
I’ve always been a person that when I set my mind to something, I want completion, success, closure, the finished product, I don’t like to start something and not finish it. Where there is a will, there is always a way.
You see we getting to chasing an idea, situation or circumstance and just as soon as the slightest problem arise, we’re done with it. It’s to much too handle, too big of a problem, we can’t get out of that hole. If that’s your mindset then you won’t get out of that hole, situation, circumstance or place. You’ll rot there, giving up without a fight. Is this you?
Yet when we get problems that seem to throw us in a hole, captivity, or whatever, do we stop to analyse, access, study the situation problem, circumstance seeking solutions, methods for ways out? Do we even pray and ask the Father who knows you have need of all those things [Matt.6:32] shut down, enter your secret closet, pray to your Father who hears and sees in secret will reward you openly [vrs.6] by seeking the answer from God first for a solution to your problem, situation, circumstances and his righteousness, allows all these things to be given to you [Matt.6:33] concentrate, meditate, invision, wrap your mind around the problem and a solution is always forth coming.
Whatever hole you’re in, there’s always a way out, it may seem otherwise when we are in the midst of the problem, situation, circumstance, it may seem like we’ve hit rock bottom and get the breath knocked out of us, or dizzy unable to stand or support our selves, it may seem like all is bad, but stop look around there a way out of your mess, problem, situation, circumstance. You must jump up over the mess, jump up over the problem, jump up over the situation, jump up over the circumstance, bring the mess down under your feet, bring the problem down under your feet, bring the circumstance down under your feet and stomp on them, stomp on them, as you begin to pack your problems under you feet, you begin to rise higher and higher over the situation, circumstance, problem, difficulties, imprisonment. All of a sudden you are able to jump out of your mess, problem situation, circumstance, imprisonment, because your all has sent help to your rescue.
You must pull down those problems, pull down these messes, pull down those situations, pull down those circumstance and get total control over them, walk on them, no stomp on them, stomp them out of existence. Be an overcomer. Be an achiever.
You can overcome any trap, you can overcome any mess, you can overcome any situation, you can overcome any circumstance, you can overcome any drug use, you can overcome any addiction, you can overcome any life defeats by seeking first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all those things will be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for romorrow: for the morrow will take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil there of. [Matthew.6:33–34]
Ask and it will be given you, search and you’ll find, knock, and it will come clear, for everyone that ask, receives, searches, finds, knock, understands [Matthew.7:7–8] be and overcomer, jump out of your hole, jump out of your problem, jump out of your mess, jump out of your situation, jump out of your circumstance and stand on top of them as the victor you are. You won’t lose with the stuff you use. Rise above anything that may come against you and declare yourself a victor over the mess you were in your Father in heaven gives good things to them that ask him. Be determine
There’s no failure in God, only in us, who do not believe. Whatever mess you are in right now yell out I’m determine to win I’m determine to win, I’m determine to win. Praise God!!! I’m not a loser.
