When The Present Things Become Former Things - Video

Greater Life Church

We have all had things we did not know how to overcome. It is easy, while in the midst of difficult situations, to not be able to see an end. Those living during the 1920s thought the tough times would not end, but eventually, they did, and our nation saw prosperity like no one in the 20s could have imagined. Those present things become former things The inverse is five too. Some people long for the good old days. They feel that the good times are as good as it will ever be. That is not how God works. If He did it, then He can do greater in the future. Both the good and the bad fade from view as time goes on and greater things take their place. Too many people live on past blessings and success. They cannot let go of the past to embrace the future. We must let God do new things in our Ike, but we have to let go of past things Whatever our present is, we have to be open to the new things God has for us. What a great promise it is that God wants better no matter what we have now. If we are to receive what God has, we may have to lay some things down. Maybe it is a hurt or pain. Maybe it is a victory or success. Whatever it is, we must lay it down to receive what God is offering. We must let go of something to get to that next place. The former may have been great, but the latter will be better. No matter how good the great was, he is moving us to something better. We will not get through the door holding on to past pain and grudges. We also won’t get through the door holding on to trophies and past victories. In order to receive what god has for us, we must let the present things become the former things.
