I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.<\/p>\n<p>In these verses, Isaiah is telling Judah to forget (yes, forget), when she struggled to be a nation among nations.<\/p>\n<p>God wanted to do a new thing!<\/p>\n<p>How many of us are being held back because we can&#8217;t forget or let go of the things that we knew?<\/p>\n<p>When God wants to do a new thing, we can&#8217;t take the former things with us. We must let go of or forget those old things. Forget the way things use to be.<\/p>\n<p>When we hang onto the old, we can also be holding onto the hard times that may have left scars on us. Sometimes those struggles can keep us from ever wanting to step into a new thing again.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because of the fear that we felt going through those struggles.<\/p>\n<p>This can cause us to be afraid of making the wrong move again. We tend to hold onto these things because we don&#8217;t want to forget what we learned from it.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s funny how we can dislike the situation we are in, but not want to let it go either. We don&#8217;t like what it did to us, but yet some how we find comfort in its familiarity.<\/p>\n<p>Letting go of the former things is a decision <i>we<\/i> have to make.<\/p>\n<p>If we let it go, God can do a new thing! If we don&#8217;t, and we want to hold on tightly to the old, then we chose to stay where we are at<\/p>\n<p>By not letting it go, we say &#8220;no&#8221; to God wanting to take us into a new thing.<\/p>\n<p>Forget the former things. They have brought us as far as we can go. God has a new thing. Let Him work it in the ways that only He can!<\/p>\n<p>Amen.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW56869253 BCX0\">Pastor Curt &amp; Pastor Ellie<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW56869253 BCX0\">Seven Seas Ministries<\/span><span class=\"SCXW56869253 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW56869253 BCX0\">49 N Lamplighters Walk<\/span><span class=\"SCXW56869253 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW56869253 BCX0\">Hampstead, NC 28443\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW56869253 BCX0\">401-439-3780<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you know someone who will enjoy this or be encouraged by it, please feel free to share it with them!<\/p>\n<p>To have the Bible Verse of The Day delivered to your inbox each day, please\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybibleverseoftheday.org\/\" data-slimstat=\"5\">Click Here<\/a>\u00a0and then enter your email address in the box near the upper left corner of the page.<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Please consider making a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybibleverseoftheday.org\/donate.php\" data-slimstat=\"5\">Donation.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Get our mobile app here:<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Android:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/oQ6qa7\" data-slimstat=\"5\">http:\/\/goo.gl\/oQ6qa7<\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Apple:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/apple.co\/2lZdgYy\" data-slimstat=\"5\">http:\/\/apple.co\/2lZdgYy<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isaiah 43:18-19 (NKJV) 18 \u201cDo not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. 19 Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it?
