God is for our good! Burt He does ask us to wait on His timing. I’ve seen the Easu Syndrome in my children. I’ve seen it in younger self. A quick fix: the easy way -knowing it wasn’t the best.\u00a0Trying to\u00a0make things happen instead of waiting on God.<\/em>\u00a0This is so deadly.<\/p>\n

“Watch out for the Esau syndrome: trading away God\u2019s lifelong gift in order to satisfy a short-term appetite. You well know how Esau later regretted that impulsive act and wanted God\u2019s blessing\u2014but by then it was too late, tears or no tears.\u201d\u202d\u202d <\/i><\/b>Hebrews\u202c \u202d12:17\u202c \u202dMSG\u202c\u202c<\/p>\n

Sometimes the consequences are barely noticeable… sometimes it’s bigger and longer lasting. Repercussions of trading God’s lifelong blessing for a short-term satisfaction <\/b>always brings death of some sort\u00a0and the\u00a0sorry\u00a0pain of regret.<\/p>\n

The good news?\u00a0God won’t waste even the bad experience.<\/b>\u00a0You can count on it. I actually pray for it, and then I wait for it. He’s the God that brings something out of nothing\u00a0<\/b>and a testimony of Glory from our mess.\u00a0<\/b>I’ve seen it happen more than once.<\/p>\n

I may have totally blown a particular opportunity, but God<\/b> has more waiting when I’m ready to submit and do things His way. Abundant Life<\/strong> is living in full submission<\/strong> to Jesus and receiving so much more than can be imagined!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

If someone you love is acting like an Esau…\u00a0pray, pray, and pray some more! <\/b>Over their heart, over their mind, over their strength against temptation. Cover them with God’s Holy Armor<\/b>,<\/i>\u00a0and stand in the gap against evil. Ask God for the Mind of Christ <\/b>to consume them and\u00a0remind them of His written Promises. Ask Him to repurpose all the trash.<\/p>\n

Then get ready to see another “Esau” come to LIFE ❤️<\/i><\/p>\n
