Going in the Wrong Direction

Someone gave me an analogy of “split ends” on a person’s hair.  In order to have healthy looking hair you have to cut off the split ends.  And, then I remember a sermon that was recently given my pastor about Going in the Wrong Direction.  One of the things that he mentioned was that we need to stop resuscitating what God has killed in our lives because it will evidentially take us in the WRONG DIRECTION.  Well, how would one tie these things together?  A woman has to “kill the ends of her hair” to make it healthier and more vibrant looking….God kills or stops things in your life that will not make you grow and prosper and become vibrant.  Do you still have “split ends” in your life?  Are you trying to resuscitate things that you should have funeralized?  If so, you are GOING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.  You have to be careful who you follow and allow into your space (as find your direction and purpose).  The enemy wants you to go into the wrong direction and question your identity.   Ask yourself, is there anything about ME that will stifle ME from getting to the next level or allow me to go in the WRONG DIRECTION.  Cut it off…kill it!  Find out who you are and do it on purpose.  F.O.C.U.S. and remember Success is Your Destiny!
