“Posture: a mental or spiritual attitude”
“Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. And athletes cannot win the prize unless they follow the rules. And hardworking farmers should be the first to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.”
2 Timothy 2:4-7 NLT
There’s nothing random about fulfilling destiny, rather it requires an intentionality on our part in aligning with what Jesus has already done for us and what the Holy Spirit is doing in us. To this end the Bible uses many analogies and this series we are zoning in on one of Paul’s engagements with Timothy where he shared three postures for a believer to take in fulfilling destiny:
- As a soldier
- As an athlete
- As a farmer
What is it about these three that align with our walk with the Lord? What does adopting these postures entail in our daily lives? How do we know if we are on track or not? We pray that the Lord will help us understand these things and more as we go deeper into His word and receive empowerment to fulfil destiny. Click here to download the study.
