Shape

Shape is important in life; we often refer to it when we know we are not in the shape we should be. You have heard the often-said phrase “I need to get into shape” when speaking about physical fitness and weight loss. If shape is important in the physical, how much more important is it to be in the spirit? In our hearts, we all hold onto baggage that we don’t need—things like unforgiveness, anger, resentment, etc. The effect of this is that it slows us down and even disables us.

Today, the Spirit of the Lord says it is time to get into shape, address your attitudes,

and deal with the baggage that you have held onto for too long.

It is time to process and remove those things hindering you and get in shape, the shape I made you, the shape I intend you to become, the shape that can carry my glory and be healthy enough to love those around you.

The Spirit of the Lord says, " I will not give up on you, so don’t give up on yourselves."

Activation: Ask the Holy Spirit to show you your “shape” in the spirit. Ask Holy Spirit to spotlight where there are things within this shape you no longer need to carry. Repent and break the partnership with these things, then ask the Holy Spirit to fill these spaces afresh. Invite the Holy Spirit to “re-shape” you today.

Hebrews 12:1-2 (NIV)

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.

Psalms 73:26 (TPT)

Lord, so many times I fail; I fall into disgrace. But when I trust in you, I have a strong and glorious presence protecting and anointing me. Forever, you’re all I need!
