Get out of your grave!

So this blog is totally different I have heard a lot of people talk about their hardships, and battles that they are going through, they always talk so pessimistic about their situations but never know when to give God the glory because even though it is a bad situation look at what God does, he takes ashes and dust and makes diamonds. I want to talk about the Israelites and how they escaped egypt; they prayed to God and prayed for an escape and God sent Moses to help them and bring them to the land in which the Lord had promised them. You see your battles are your egypt and some of us would rather settle and make your funeral plans and a lot of us would rather sit and be complacent because in our eyes the situation is bigger but why are we always so quick to assume that the situation is bigger than God? He did something what we think is humanly impossible. he use a few words to make everything! He created life as we know it and In Genesis 1:1 NKJV it states In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and the earth was without form and void, and the darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God hovering over the waters. If God were to settle with just being complacent and being convicted, what he wanted would never happen, not one person, animal or anything would be in existence right now. In today's world we have so many warm water christians, some who say "oh it's all going to be alright" to others but behind closed doors they worry about everything and question the will of God and they wonder why they are walking through the hell they are because they are trying to do what God has already done. Before that situation started God had a battle plan ready, he knew every word that would be said, every document wrote and every person involved but he also had a plan on how it was going to work out for your favor. You see if the israelites would have given up, Israel would not be a free nation, the people of God would not have inherited the land promised to them by the Father. It all comes down to us deciding, either get up out of your grave and fight or sit down and look stupid and settle for complacency and be an egyptian, ruled by your stupid ruler or "king" and that is Satan. It is up to you to get up and say, "No, I am going to live for Christ and I am going to live for the right reason and the whole time I am going to give him glory for everything!" So get up, because I can tell you that If I would've settled and been complacent, I would still be on drugs, and drinking alcohol, I would be in the streets, and making funeral plans that would end up coming true. I would not have my beautiful Fiance, I would not own a company, I would not be in College becoming a Doctor, I would be nowhere living up to a Shotwell name that would make me like them for the rest of my life getting nowhere but the streets and prison. I had to have the faith to get out of there and you see the bible says, "Faith without works is dead." So, I had to work and have faith and lean not to my own understanding but in ALL my ways acknowledge the Father and by doing that he made my paths straight. It is up to you, I can't do it for you and neither can anyone else, it is only up to you. So, what are you going to do? Get up out of the grave or stay there? It is up to you!!
