Take Off Thy Shoes

Remember the instruction, "Take off thy shoes" recorded in the bible.


The Significance of Meaning: Don't let your past i.e. where you have walked -- good and bad, defile the Present --- the moment of revelatory knowledge and understanding.



Reference #1: Moses before the Burning Bush (Exodus 2)

  • Revelatory Knowledge and Understanding: "I am that I am" --- Where God leadeth, He will provide. God is everything you need.
  • Practical Application: God is the source of all things.


Reference #2: Joshua before the Captain of the Lord's host (Joshua 5)
  • Revelatory Knowledge and Understanding: "It's not by power, nor by might but by His [God's] Spirit" ---> "Be strong in the power of His [God's] might".
  • Practical Application: "Trust in the Lord, lean not to thy own understanding". ---> Do not trust your education, money, talents, gifts, prestige, positions, people, or other carnal and temporal items to bring success. These are only the means given to you by God to achieve success.


These are perilous times.

It's time for everyone to stop and 'take off thy shoes" and reflect on this moment in time. God is trying to tell us something. God is helping us to become more perfect (mature) and in the unity of the Spirit.

He that hath an ear to hear, let him hear what the Spirit of God saith to the Church.




Beautiful Feet

Romans 10:15 --- "And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!"
