Inspiration from Spiritual Initiatives
Ephesians 5:14
Not all initiatives, or the inclination to take action, originate from a divine source. You may receive advice to rise and progress. Simply carry out the necessary tasks; seize your hesitancy and set it away! When referring to typical human initiative, we are specifically referring to that concept. Yet, when the divine Spirit communicates with us and instructs us to "arise and take action," we discover that our motivation is promptly ignited.
During our youth, individuals often possess several aspirations and ambitions. However, as time progresses, we gradually acknowledge our lack of ability to actualize them. It is common for us to perceive our aims and objectives as unattainable when we are unable to pursue the things we genuinely desire. However, God manifests to us and issues a directive for us to "resurrect." When we are divinely inspired, we receive an extraordinary force that empowers us to do seemingly impossible tasks, akin to being resurrected from the dead. The phenomenon of spiritual initiative is quite remarkable as it bestows upon us vitality and strength exclusively when we take action and commence our endeavors. God grants us existence as we triumph, rather than existence that is conquered. When we receive divine inspiration and are commanded to "awaken from death," it is our responsibility to rise independently, as divine assistance will not be provided. "Extend your hand," Our Lord instructed the man whose hand had become withered (Matthew 12:13). The man's hand rapidly recovered upon completing the action. However, the responsibility of initiating the action rested solely on him. Currently, we are bestowed with the vitality of being by a divine entity. By proactively surmounting challenges, we shall come to realize that this divine entity serves as our source of motivation.
