Break the Routine!

God is doing a new thing. What was once a routine requiring no thought but strictly action has been broken. God has been challenging the redundant routines of his people. “If I could just get my routine together, things would flow more smoothly” is what I’m hearing. But God has broken the bonds of routine mindsets, behaviors, and lifestyles. He has confronted His people’s desire to control via a “consistent routine”. He has pushed us into a newness where leading by Holy Spirit is essential. In order to be Spirit-led, routines must be broken. In order to experience the newness that he is doing in this season, routines must be broken. We must return to consulting God regarding everything. The truth is most of us “learned” how to function within our gifts, callings, and capabilities. We learned how to fabricate an atmosphere mimicking the presence. And due to that, glory has lifted from many spaces where he once resided. The routines took the place of the glory which lifted. Emotional charges imitated the presence. Truth became scriptures wrapped in compromise. And the hearts, minds, and souls of the people drifted further and further away from God. But He is calling us back to him. He is challenging every routine mindset, behavior, and lifestyle. He is calling for us to awaken to the confines we’ve allowed to bind us and separate us from him. Your response is essential. Your response will attest to the direction of your movement. The time is now to come out of routines which make your flesh comfortable but deprive your spirit. Allow God to break every routine you’ve become self-sufficient in. Allow him to break the bonds of your routine mindset, behaviors, and lifestyle. He’s bidding you to come back to him, his glory… How will you respond to God breaking your routines?
