The Flesh Is Temporary

DAY 1 OF 3

The Flesh Is Temporary.

“For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:” 1 Peter‬ ‭1:24‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Choose to focus on the things that are eternal. The flesh is temporary — Christ is eternal. Choose to focus on His Word. Choose to surrender to God’s Way of doing things. Choose to focus on feeding your spirit. When you surrender your heart to God, your focus will begin to shift. When you surrender to Christ, your priorities will begin to change. When you surrender to Christ, your will begins to align to His Will. Surrender to His Word. Surrender to His Will. Choose to set your focus on Him. Fix your eyes on Him. He’s larger than your problem. 

Christ is bigger than your circumstance. He holds your purpose in His hands. He holds time in His hands. He holds your future in His hands. Surrender to the One who is Omnipresent. Time bows to Him. God is not bound or limited by time. “For all flesh (mankind) is like grass, and all its glory (honor) like [the] flower of grass. The grass withers and the flower drops off,” 1 Peter‬ ‭1:24‬ ‭AMPC‬‬. 

Choose to focus on God. Don’t let your heart be enslaved to the things of this world. When you shift your focus on Him, His Peace will consume you. His Peace will overtake you. Pray and seek God’s face. Choose to let your heart reflect His Word. The landscape that you see today will change. The kings that you see today will change. The kingdoms that you see today will change. God never changes. His Word never changes. His Way of doing things will never change. Choose to shift your focus. Build your life on His Word. Build your life on the Rock that never changes  “As the Scriptures say, “People are like grass; their beauty is like a flower in the field. The grass withers and the flower fades.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1:24‬ ‭NLT‬‬
