Eliminate the Middle Man

 Hey Hey 

Welcome back to my blog! 

Listen God is so good and I am at awe on how God is moving continuously and constantly in His children life. Aren't you glad just to be apart of the number I know I am!

Okay so forgive me, God gave me this word a few weeks ago and I have been so delayed with posting, but I has to repent for my delays in getting things out. It's so amazing to know that we serve a forgiving loving God.  

When God gave me this title for my bible studies, I went straight into prayer to get the rest of the message. Can I speak to your spirit? Even when God gives you a name, don't run with the idea or title on your own strength, go back to Him and ask Him to lead you completely through so you are not fishing for the answer. 

Eliminate the Middle Man

Eliminate means to completely remove or get rid of something. Often times we want to take those who's been with us since day one in our next season or even current people, but it is so important to know some roads you have to travel alone. A familiar scripture but one that gravitates to this topic is Matthew 6:33 "We have to see the Father with everything we do. Strive after Him, and allow or ways to line us with his ways. AMP version says,"But first and most importantly seek (aim at strive after) His Kingdom and His righteousness (his way of doing and being right the attitude and character of God) and all these things will be given to you also. 

When we seek God first we will know who is suppose to walk this journey of life with us. Jesus had 12 disciples but He had 3 that were his close circle Matthew, Mark,  and Luke. 

If you read you will see that these 3 apostles have the same story but told from their eye gates. dealing with the woman with the issue of blood. 

Matthew 9:18-22, Mark 5:25-34

In the story with the woman with the issue of blood. She was bleeding for 12 years and had spent all she had. She went to different doctors she spent everything trying to get this health issue under control. Whenever she went out of her house she had to say she was clean! Can you imagine having to walk out your house and announce that you are unclean! Ladies just imagine having to let everyone know that you are on your menstrual cycle every time it comes around. Me personally I would be devastated. The lady with the issue of blood allowed the middle man to be her money the doctors and even her mind, but then she heard about a man name Jesus being  in a near town. Whew it is something special when we know that the Lord is close by! With no hesitation she traveled to get to Jesus, she pressed her way through the crowd to get to the healer, the deliver, the way maker. 

Sometimes Jesus is our last result when He should be our first. Sometimes the middle man can keep us from getting to the ultimate man. When she finally let go of what was holding her back she was able to get to Jesus and be made whole. Jesssssus I love this testimony of this woman of God. She never even touched Jesus she said, "If I could touch the hymns of His garment I will be made whole." She didn't even touch Him, but his clothes, and immediately she was free from something that kept her bond for 12 years.  

Can I tell you, when you allow Jesus to come into your life things began to change immediately. Jesus is so good and such a gentleman, He said "who touched me?" and the disciples said Master all of these people around us and you asked who touched you?" Mind you the woman never touched him but His clothes, but yet our savior knew something has transferred out of Him.  He said "I know because the virtue left out of my body, and the woman fell at Jesus feet, and Jesus said, "Daughter be of good cheer your faith has made you whole. It wasn't in her touch but it was in her faith. 

What is holding up your faith from receiving what you need from God.  This story blessed me so much because it lets us know how to eliminate what keeps us from God. 

I Thessalonians 4:11-12 says , And to make it your ambition to live quietly and peacefully, and to mind your own affairs and work with your hands just as we directed you. So that you will behave properly towards outsiders (exhibiting good character, personal integrity, and moral courage worthy of the respect of the outside world.) and be dependent on no one and in need of nothing (be self supporting)

 You have to learn to eliminate people, places, and things so God can do what He wants through you and around you. In order to live a quiet life you have to eliminate some things that are not for you, but work with your on hands and do what God has called you to do. In order to do those things sometimes you have to stand alone without the crowd. Many times Jesus had to eliminate the crowd in order to do the work.

What's your middle man that's stopping you from getting to your next. 

I encourage you to seek the Father in helping you to remove those things that keep you from seeing what the God has for you. 

I pray that this bless you and I pray that will focus and move on how God wants you to move so that you can experience God like never before. I love you, but God loves you so much more.
