Don’t Get Distracted…

Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord always be with you.

At the time I’m writing this letter, it is around 4:05 am on Wednesday morning in Covington, Georgia. The Holy Spirit woke me up and directed me to start praying about a matter.

The Holy Spirit of God was very clear in Its instruction for how I am to conduct my day, as I pray on this certain matter. My main instruction was to, “Stay in a place/mindset of holiness.” The second instruction from the Holy Spirit of God was, “Don’t get distracted.”

When God is preparing us for a purpose, assignment, mission, calling, or battle, we must be obedient and be in a mindset of holiness. I don’t mean holiness in terms of what some may think of as an outward showing, appearance, or spectacle. The maintenance of holiness I am speaking of is in the hardest battleground that we will ever face. Not only is the battleground challenging, but it’s also Invisible. The battleground I’m speaking of is the Mind.

Every decision we make begins in the Mind. Every thought we think has a purpose and carries weight. Will our decisions add light into the world, or will it add darkness? Will the decisions we make lead us to disobedience and sin, or will it lead to maturity and strength in the Lord.

The Word of God is very clear when it comes to how we should manage our thoughts.

Holy Scriptures

2 Corinthians 10:3-5

New International Version

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Songs of Worship

Family, we are entering a season and time where we can not be distracted by what we see, feel, taste, or hear. We must set aside everything that may try to get our minds off the mission that God has given us.

My orders may be different from yours, but my obedience is the same. I have been given instructions, and I accept the mission and orders I have been given.

I pray your strength in the Lord. May the Light of Christ shine with you, on you, and through you so that it may draw others to Him. Don’t get distracted. Finish the Mission.

Your sister,

Rev. Marcia Davis
