There is nothing worst than a Christian who is always negative, not only do they block their blessings they will try to block yours. Negativity is equal to doubt and where doubt is, faith is absent. We need to be faithful for without it we cannot please God. If someone asked you if God is real, you would tell him or her yes with out a second thought, you are positive He exists. So with the same unquestionable faith continue on your path.
Now we come to your advancement in the kingdom. It is a two-lane path leading us in the right direction. The first lane represents our progression to a higher stage of development; this is where we find hurdles. God is allowing us to go through uncomfortable situations, to see how we handle ourselves. If we overcome, He will raise the bar but if we do not, best believe we will be right back where we started. “…He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” so God directs us into the second lane, promotion. Here we find a resting place, where we train to enter the next level of maturity. He then guides us back to farther development and then rewards us again, in a seemly never-ending sequence.
Advancement leads us toward our destination. As Christians, we are waiting for our High Priest to come back and take us home to be with Him for eternity. We do not know when or where we will be on that glorious day, but be sure to stay on the paths of the believer. If Jesus finds you making a Positive Advancement Toward Heaven, you will surely get there. Selah.
