Don't Look Back

Read Genesis 19:23-26

23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

When God says something will happen, it happens.

God said He would take care of you.

God said He would protect you.

God said He would deliver you.

And, God said, He would hear your prayers.

But, when God tells you to move in your life, you should never, EVER, look back!

When you look back, you will find yourself stuck right where you are. You can't move forward if you are looking back. You might as well just turn into a pillar of salt that erodes over time to become a pile of minerals to look at. You have no use, and you ARE no use looking back!

It's okay to reflect on how far you've come, but you should never be concerned with what you left behind! Doing so only holds you back. Being held back puts you in danger of the same destruction your past has faced.
