DON’T COMMIT TO MORE THAN YOU CAN CARRY
When your hands are more than full, and you have too much to carry, listen. When you are moving and juggling a lot of issues from one place to another, and there is no room to put them down to rest, listen. Precious ones, heed the cost of commitment. Resist making promises you can not keep. Do not schedule yourselves so thin that you can not keep your appointments. I have already given you assignments and loads to carry, so consider what you already have in your hand.
In this season, I have not asked you to go back and recover something you have lost. I will be giving you an entire season of restoring years of loss. Right now, I want you to concentrate on what you already have in your care and be faithful to move it into alignment with My will and purposes, and not bite off more than you can chew. Please ask Me about new opportunities before making your decisions. You are in danger of losing what you are already carrying if you carry more right now, so stay low and pray.
Luke 14:28-31 NKJV
For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost , whether he has enough to finish it — lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’
Luke 9:61-62 NKJV
And another also said, “Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house.” But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”
