I looked in the spirit and saw a person spinning many plates on many poles, frantically running around, trying desperately to stop them falling. It was an all consuming task with no end and no rest. Then I heard the voice of the Lord say, “Pause…. Breathe…Turn around.”
The Spirit of the Lord says:
It’s time to step out of busyness, and turn to Me. Let your thoughts be on Me. Allow Me to look after the many things on your mind. But you must know, I will let some plates fall. Because some of those plates are not for you.
Some of the things you are carrying are a distraction, and they are wearing you out. Be brave and let them go. Those plates which are meant to be yours, I will keep them spinning more perfectly than you have ever seen. Let us work together, not with angst and fear but with purpose and fruitfulness.
Activation:
Respond to the Lord’s call to pause, breathe and turn around. Spend an extended time with Him, picturing the Lord in front of you. Invite God’s all consuming peace. Allow Him to reveal to you all the things you are struggling to maintain and actively hand those things to God. Ask the Lord to reveal to you those things which are not yours to carry in this season. Repent of any self-effort, and ask the Lord how He wants you to go about laying these things down. Then ask Him where His anointing is for purpose and fruitfulness in your life.
40 But Martha was very busy and distracted with all of her serving responsibilities; and she approached Him and said, “Lord, is it of no concern to You that my sister has left me to do the serving alone? Tell her to help me and do her part.”
41 But the Lord replied to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered and anxious about so many things;
42 but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part [that which is to her advantage], which will not be taken away from her.”
Luke 10:40-42 (AMP)
