Zip Up The Negative

Zip Up The Negative…

When Gabriel announced to Zechariah that he and his wife, Elizabeth, were destined to have a baby named John, Zechariah questioned how it was possible. They had prayed for a child for years, but Elizabeth was barren and too old. It’s easy to settle for who you are instead of believing for who you can become.

The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words. Luke 1:19–20

Too often we get comfortable with what is when God has more for us. For nine months, Zechariah was silenced. God knew if he went around saying, “It’s never going to happen,” the promise would not come to pass.

You can talk yourself out of your blessing. When you hear your destiny calling, you may not see how it can happen, but do yourself a favor and zip that up. Don’t go around talking about how it’s not going to work out.

If you stay in agreement with God, all the forces of darkness cannot stop it from happening. God will open doors that no man can shut.

He’ll turn situations around that look impossible. He is saying you can become something greater. Don’t settle where you are.

Father, thank You for the promises You have spoken to my spirit. Thank You that I can speak words of faith that agree with Your promises and give them the right to come to pass. I will zip up my doubts and use my words to invite good things into my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
