Called Outside Your Comfort Zone
Once we learn to thrive, we will be called to break through barriers and blaze new trails. That’s because God’s vision is always bigger than our own. His plan for our lives is always bigger than we can imagine for ourselves. When you’re living a holy, healed, healthy, happy, humble, hungry, honoring life, you will be called to thrive outside your comfort zone. Based on what we see in the Bible, most of the people God chose to advance His kingdom didn’t aspire to greatness but simply remained willing and able to serve in whatever capacity the Lord called them to serve.
Many of them protested or made excuses—Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Gideon, Naomi, and Rahab, for example. Others, including Noah, Joseph, Joshua, Jeremiah, and Ruth, faced obstacles that appeared impossible to overcome based on human perception and earthly resources. One of my favorite examples, however, never questioned, wavered, or doubted God’s ability to use him according to His infinite wisdom, limitless power, and divine will.
David was always willing to trust God for the next step, which is essential for thriving in the power of God’s Spirit. As the shepherd king discovered, trusting God often requires ignoring the advice, opinions, and counsel of other people. But "thrivers", those people whose spirits have been awakened by God's anointing in their lives, aren’t afraid to disrupt existing systems or traditional paradigms. Sometimes drastically altering or destroying a system or structure already in place is exactly what God wants us to do.
