Why You're Like a Jet

Monday, February 10, 2025

What do believers and airplanes have in common? Airplanes are a unique form of transportation. You can stop a horse, a car, a bicycle, a train, or even a ship. But if you try to stop a plane in mid-air, it will crash. And you can't fly a plane in reverse, back up, or just stand still. So it is for believers. Your walk in the Lord has no provision for backing up or staying still. If you, as a believer, try to stay where you are in the Lord, if you stop growing, stop moving closer to Him, then your walk is in trouble. For your heart isn't made to stand still. It's made only to go ahead. If your walk isn't going anywhere or hasn't been going anywhere for a while... take heed. Don't let it crash! Turn on your spiritual engine and start moving forward again. Paul wrote "But this I do... I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus)." Like it or not, you are like an airplane. Press on, and you'll find yourself flying in the heavenlies.
