Syd is a minister and pastor’s wife whose life almost ended. One night during a revival service, she snuck out of church to complete her suicidal plans. A childhood trauma left her wounded and struggling in silence. Yet the Lord had other plans for her life that night. When she was about to drive into the concrete embankment, the Spirit filled her car with His presence, and healing began. God did not completely restore her that night, but He started a process of restoration.
It is in the continued relationship with the Lord that we accomplish all that He has designed us to do. We must do our part and allow Him to work in us and through us. We can stop the process at any time, so hunger for transformation and the truth must dismantle the masks we wear and the lies we believe. Relinquishment of fear, shame, guilt, anger and unforgiveness is necessary and required. Syd began her journey of wholeness that fateful night, and in order for us to accomplish all that the Lord has planned for us in 2022, we too must allow the Spirit to heal all our wounds.
To be transformed, we must walk every day knowing His love for us. The devil is the father of all lies (John 8:44). Sometimes, we believe the lies of the enemy instead of walking in the truth of His love. Nothing will ever separate us from His love (Rom. 8:35).
We must also be mindful of the Lord. In the stillness, we know He is God. In order to walk in the boldness and authority of Jesus, we must know He is always with us and will never leave us. {eoa}
