After many trials and error I tried something different as to go around in circles. If you don't have a specific goal in life, one direction is as good as another and circles do not really matter. First of all I sit down and really think what my purpose in life is. The question is, do I want to move/grow spiritually or am I going to be satisfied to be in the same place spiritually.
I would set my eyes on my vision then I locate my Spiritual position and work my way forward from there.
Because of a lack of knowledge, Christians tend to grow and mature very slowly or not at all. We need to understand that we grow in the Spirit just as we grow in the natural. We grow from rebirth to the stature of Christ, just as we grow from birth to adulthood in the natural - this Spiritual growing process takes us OUT of Egypt THROUGH the wilderness INTO Canaan.
It is important that we understand the significance of this journey.
OUT OF EGYPT is the departure of the worldly way of living.
2 Corinthians 6:17 come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord,
This is not the people of the world but the worldly system. We have to forsake it.
THROUGH THE WILDERNESS is a moving and growing process; this is not a campground. Attitudes are changed from moaning and complaining to attitudes of praying and worshiping . This change is what enables us to finally get through the wilderness.
Hebrews 3:8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness
INTO CANAAN signifies our entering into the promises that God has given us back in Egypt. You are going to take possession of your land, (promises) you cannot take possession of Egypt nor the wilderness. It has to be Canaan.
Joshua 1:3 every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
