Acts 7:3 NKJV

and said to him, ‘Get out of your country and from your relatives, and come to a land that I will show you.’

Acts 7:3 NKJV

When Stephen was falsely accused and questioned, Stephen reminded them that the fulfilment of scriptures, signs, and wonders are all part of God's manifested power and glory.

Here, Stephen said something simple, but it is a powerful truth that speaks of a principle Abraham followed.

God told Abraham to get out of his country. We must bear in mind that Abraham was successful, wealthy and prosperous. The only thing lacking in him was that he had no son.

God took Abraham out of his circle of influence that will keep him as a barren man without a child because that is what people associate him with, a man with no son.

It is not just a change of land but a land that can assist him in bringing a change to move towards his true identity and shape his future and vision to be fulfilled.

What God showed Abraham was that he was the father of many nations. He gave him a name that says exactly that so that his surroundings will resound who he is in God.

His children are going to be so many beyond what he could imagine.

We, too, need to cross over in our thinking, in our belief system and in our understanding of who is our God and what He has made us to be.

It is not just about knowledge but a place where our minds and our hearts can be shaped according to what God has purposed for our lives.

Christ established the truth that all may see their true identity and their true purpose. In that place, we are able to manifest the glory that God has put in us.

Let us cross over to the land that God has prepared. The land of truths where we are able to see through His eyes. A land always flowing with His abundance.

Blessings
