The Power of Disruption

God wants something new.

He’s not interested in just changing what you do. He wants to change who you are.

He wants to form you into the image in which he has created you. He empowers you to live out his created intention in each moment, in every season.

In Isaiah, God said, “I’m doing a new thing-don’t you see it?”

And we don’t because we haven’t asked. Sometimes we need to stop and ask a new question. This will most likely create disequilibrium but will reveal things we need to see. When we encounter a new perspective, we start to ask new questions.

If you’re feeling stuck or frustrated, it could be because you’re asking the same question over and over. Guess what happens when you ask the same questions over and over? You get the same answers.

We have to start asking some different questions about who we are and what God is doing. We need to spend some time asking, seeking, knocking, and looking to try to understand what God is doing.

But we are not going to get to the future unless we learn to let go of the past. We have to create a disruption that will force us to think differently, to consider things from a different perspective.

I am asking you to prepare yourself for the new thing God is doing. If we are not intentional to prepare ourselves, then we will fall back into old patterns, and we will do the same things over and over again.

New ways require new patterns, and new patterns require the old ones to be disrupted.

Are there patterns that need to be disrupted? Familiar patterns that you engage in at the expense of what could be? Ask the Lord to help you see and long for His will and His way.
