STOP TYING YOUR BLESSINGS TO THE GROUND

STOP TYING YOUR BLESSINGS TO THE GROUND

Stop tying your blessings to the ground

Only allowing God to work and move based on where you are right now

God is bigger than any geographic location

God can handle every situation

Why on God are you placing stipulations

Bless me like this

Then bless me like that

Bless my friends too and cut them some slack

But only bless me in my little corner

I'm a spiritual babe right now, for the big stuff, wait til I'm older

Why is it only a blessing if it comes in the packaging you require

When God is trying to meet your heart's desire

That desire and His will just might take you out of your own backyard (your comfort zone)

And plant your feet on higher ground, closer to the throne

Now those are the blessings we are most scared of

Because they might take us away from the ones we love

They might put a distance between us and our cheering section

Might cause some separation from those who show us affection

When God gives you a blessing its not just for you

It's a seed planted because He has work for you to do

So please don't tie your blessing to the ground

Discern the voices so you know God's sound

Listen to the spirit and move out in faith

Don't be hindered by circumstances thinking you don't rate

God has equipped you to do mighty things

Don't be distracted by the sadness that life sometimes brings

Stop sitting on your blessing

You might lose the lesson

The work God has for you

May mean bidding your current location/occupation/situation/relations "adieu" (goodbye)

Bask in the mercy and grace you've found

Stop tying your blessings to the ground
