When a soldier is on the battlefield, he gets rid of anything and everything that will hinder him. We should do the same in our spiritual battle. Yet, often people will try to stand in faith or fight their battle will all kinds of excess baggage.
It’s time to get rid of anything that would hold you back spiritually. Get rid of fear, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, and hatred. It’s time to get rid of the baggage of blaming yourself for things you can’t change. It’s time to get rid of the baggage of blaming others, let it go. It’s time to get rid of the baggage of unrealized expectations. Get rid of all the excess baggage that hinders you from running this race. If you don’t get rid of them today – they will certainly affect your tomorrow.
