some ideas for getting out of a rut
lesson from –David T. Moore
People find themselves in a rut
When they replace God.
( it’s a control issue – we want to control ourselves and give ourselves security and control ourselves, surrounding and others .
Which leads to unbearable pain… painful relationships & circumstances.
Which leads to temporary fix – something to get the pain off the radar of out hearts and minds for awhile something to distract us. –that causes an obsessive attitude. Living with a blocked perspective.
Those in a RUT find themselves Caught in between the unresolved issues of the Past and the uncertainty of the future.
Btu there is a better way to live rut free..
Admitting that we are powerless in our lives. Out lives become unmanageable.
Admit that there really is a power greater than us.
We have a choice to turn our will and our lives over to the care of GOD.
Search and examine ourselves – being honest with ourselves seeing the character flaws. – rutted in the 7 deadly sins. – find the nature of our wrongs – ask God to remove those issues.
Then get a list of all the people you have wronged and make amends – get rid of the baggage.
The heart can grow bitter and cold with all the issues we can bury.
Maintenance –
Appropriately handle problems – keep a firm grip on the issues that affect you.
None of us ever really arrive at perfection.
1 Corinthians 10
11These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. 12So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! 13No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
Be careful – no one is immune.
Be confident – God will always be there to get you through it.
NO one can fix the past – we must not focus on what should have could have been – we have to work with what we have here & now –TODAY.
Don’t be addicted to fixing the problem – but get beyond it – aim for the target.
This is a daily deal – deal with the issues you have today – live freely in the moment.
Matthew 6:34 (New International Version)
34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Maturity – growing stronger, personal growth. Deeper relationship with GOD.
Finding and following Gods will for you today
Emotional stability –
Relational stability – being gracious and forgiving
Colossians 3: 15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. 17And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Pray – talk to God.
Confess Sin , get rid of selfish motives, have clean motives
Prayer, mediation ( listen)
