Turn Questions to Declarations

As I was walking at the bridge today, I listened to an audio book. This book I read years ago. Hinds Feet In High Places uses symbolism to portray the story. Nearing the end of my walk the reader spoke a line that spoke volumes to me. Much Afraid, (the main character) said, ….let me trust you as much as I desire to love you”. She spoke it almost as a question. As I pondered the statement, God spoke to me in my spirit these words, “ Make that question a declaration”. We grow expediently as we turn such questions into declarations. I WILL TRUST YOU AS MUCH AS I DESIRE TO LOVE YOU, LORD!

Just a few lines later, Much Afraid was running, and leaping, in joy, bounding upward, beginning her ascent to the high places.

Question = uncertainty, doubt. Questioning produces hesitation, which delays our destiny.

Declaration = confirmation, agreement. Declaration frees us to move toward our destiny
which, leads us to the high places, with the Father.

His word (Ephesians 2:6) says we are seated in heavenly places
- We must not question it but rather, believe it.

Another though from this book –

Will I ascend the mountain without fear?
Am I willing to ascend without need of affirmation, being understood, or even known?

We are loved affirmed, understood and known by our Heavenly Father.
I will declare – That is enough. I will ascend without need of man’s approval.
