RELOCATION! A Time to Regroup # 7

Relocation

God will REGROUP your Local!

A Time to Regroup # 7

I lay awake early this morning, the Lord began to speak to me about the rejection that Joseph and King David experienced. He showed me that their rejection of man, was part of directing them to the Location of God. PRAISE GOD!

I heard "Robin, would you be willing to relocate?" To be honest, before now I wouldn't, but as of late with the swift changes that have come upon us since mid-July and part of the regrouping that's taking place in August, I find it easy to say, "Yes, Lord!"

God showed me how sometimes, it takes the difficult times, to allow doors to shut to old seasons and familiar places, to enter into LARGE SPACES! PRAISE GOD! Places that can facilitate our growth, lie a plant that's transplanted.

Jabez knew this well, as he had been in a land that labeled him as sorrow, and in his reidentification, discovering who he truly was, Jabez cried out to God to RELOCATE HIM!!!!!! Jabez in Hebrew means sorrow, and all he knew in his old season, was people speaking that which he wasn't.

"Jabez cried to the God of Israel, saying, Oh, that You would bless me and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and You would keep me from evil so it might not hurt me! And God granted his request." 1 Chronicles 4:10 AMPC

Enlarge in Hebrew is râbâh pronounced raw-baw' and means, "abundance, be in authority, enlarge, excel, exceedingly, greater, be full, MAKE GREAT, make use, multiply, nourish, PLENTY, PROCESS OF TIME, etc. (Strong's Concordance Hebrew word # 7235) The Hebrew letters for Enlarge are Resh, Bet, and Hey. Resh is the ancient symbol of a man's face, meaning "head, highest, and person." Bet is the ancient symbol of a tent, meaning, "tent, household, and family. Hey is the ancient symbol of a person worshipping and means to reveal. Therefore, the word picture for enlarge is MY PERSON REVEALS THE HOUSE I BELONG TO!

GLORY TO GOD!

You belong to God, not man! Get this in your knower! Last week, God had me do REIDENTIFICATION, in regard to getting your true identity in Christ Jesus, not from the opinions of others! Do you understand, like Jabez, you can be limited by those who are too familiar with you, who see you as small and insignificant, where you've lived for years or grown up?

This is why God had to MOVE JABEZ! His pain instigated the relocation! PRAISE GOD! Enlarge means to MAKE GREAT, David knew this well, when at the end of days, he proclaimed that God made him great! Had David stayed in the place he grew up; he would have remained small. It took the rejection of King Saul and Jonathon, to move David into the RELOCATION OF GOD for his life.

11 "Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and the earth is Yours; Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and Yours it is to be exalted as Head over all. 12 Both riches and honor come from You, and You reign over all. In Your hands are power and might; in Your hands it is to make great and to give strength to all. 13 Now therefore, our God, we thank You and praise Your glorious name and those attributes which that name denotes." 1 Chronicles 29:11-13 AMPC

Relocate means "to locate again." Locate means "to discover the exact place or position of."

Saints, you have to understand, that sometimes God uses pain, sorrow, and rejection, to MOVE YOU TO THE PLACE OF PLENTY, ENLARGEMENT!

"And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand and power of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a land good and large, a land flowing with milk and honey [a land of plenty]—to the place of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite." Exodus 13:5 AMPC

The same happened with God's people. Egypt, the place of their pain, became the space of ENLARGEMENT, TRANSITION, AND CHANGE, PRAISE GOD! THE PLACE WHERE GOD MADE HIMSELF KNOWN IN THEIR MIDST AS THE GOD WHO IS GREAT!

Is God Relocating you? Is your past pain so loud, that you need to move to PLACE OF PLENTY!?

God bless!
