Why do we
get caught up on labels? These labels
might be placed on us by society, our family, friends and even ourselves. At times in our lives, we portray to be
someone in the outside and hide what we are really feeling in the inside. We label ourselves with negatives words that
truly affect our being. We let others
label us as well, and in turn believe it in the end.
All of the
labels running in our heads are hindering God’s plan for us. These are boundaries that we are p lacing in
our lives. We have to speak life not
death. God cannot be hindered on the
boundaries you put on yourself. Who are
you in God? Are you a label or have you
passed on that torch and moved forward to accepting all the Lord has for, which
is life in abundance?
The labels
carried out through our lives will leave us exasperated, and will cause us to
spend all we have and leave us with nothing; no life. Stop putting the labels or negativity in your
life and if sin is holding you down, move forward from it, confess your sin,
repent and accept the forgiveness of the Lord. Your labels will be shed in the
name of Jesus. Stop talking and listen
to the Lord. He will give you one label, “My Son/ My daughter.”
Sit back and
think of the story of Moses…Moses was a blessing from the Lord since he was an
infant. He was given an abundant life
and even though he went through trials with his ‘adoptive’ family, God blessed
him and allowed him to see the Glory of God.
Moses was labeled and by allowing himself to be led by God, he was
blessed. Overcome your labels and move
forward into God’s glory.
