I’m preparing for my summer break and excited about the books I’ll get to read during my time off. One of the books I’m looking forward to reading is entitled, “What Got You Here Won’t Get You There” by Marshall Goldsmith. I picked it up at our local Half Price Books and have been anxious to see what it has to say.
Just the title gets me thinking about so many people who believe for different results while they perform the same actions. I heard that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Here’s one of the things that holds people back from obtaining all God has for them – lack of faith. Hebrews 11:6 tells us that we cannot please God without operating in faith. If it is impossible to please God without faith, then why don’t we activate it? Instead, many are displeasing to the Lord because they fail to step out in faith.
What are ways to please God with faith?
- Believe God for healing
- Volunteer in a regular ministry
- Listen for His voice then do what it says
- Go witness to someone about Jesus
- Teach a class even though you feel inadequate
- Go pray for someone even though you feel uncomfortable
God responds to people of faith! If you are wanting to go to the next level with God and see Him move in your life in incredible ways, then don’t just keep doing what you’re doing and expecting different results.
What do you need to do different to achieve different results?
