Can You Come Down From the Mountain - if God shows you something to do, just do it. We must learn to live in the ordinary “gray” day according to what we saw on the mountain. Don’t give up because you have been blocked and confused once - go after it again. Burn your bridges behind you, and stand committed to God by an act of your own will. Never change your decisions, but be sure to make your decisions in the light of what you saw and learned on the mountain

"While you have the light, believe in the light … " - John 12:36

We all have moments when we feel better than ever before, and we say, “I feel fit for anything; if only I could always be like this!” 

We are not meant to be. 

Those moments are moments of insight which we have to live up to even when we do not feel like it.

Many of us are no good for the everyday world when we are not on the mountaintop. 

Yet we must bring our everyday life up to the standard revealed to us on the mountaintop when we were there.

Never allow a feeling that was awakened in you on the mountaintop to evaporate. 

Don’t place yourself on the shelf by thinking, “How great to be in such a wonderful state of mind!” 

Act immediately— do something, even if your only reason to act is that you would rather not.

If, during a prayer meeting, God shows you something to do, don’t say, “I’ll do it”— just do it ! 

Pick yourself up by the back of the neck and shake off your fleshly laziness. 

Laziness can always be seen in our cravings for a mountaintop experience; all we talk about is our planning for our time on the mountain. 

We must learn to live in the ordinary “gray” day according to what we saw on the mountain.

Don’t give up because you have been blocked and confused once— go after it again. 

Burn your bridges behind you, and stand committed to God by an act of your own will. 

Never change your decisions, but be sure to make your decisions in the light of what you saw and learned on the mountain.

It is impossible to read too much, but always keep before you why you read. Remember that “the need to receive, recognize, and rely on the Holy Spirit” is before all else.

God On The Mountain - Lynda Randle

lyrics

For the God on the mountain

Is still God in the valley

When things go wrong

He'll make them right

And the God of the good times

Is still God in the bad times

The God of the day

Is still God in the night

For the God on the mountain

Is still God in the valley

When things go wrong

He'll make them right

And the God of the good times

Is still God in the bad times

The God of the day

Is still God in the night

The God of the day

Is still God in the night

You were made to live and establish your faith in the valley - life is not about avoiding pain or crisis; it’s about appropriating my grace in every circumstance of life. Drink from my spring in the valley so that you can be my voice on the mountain

The most brilliant colors of plants are to be seen in spots that are most exposed to the wildest weather - trials clear away the obscurity and give brightness and blessing to life

Know your shepherd - promising never to leave nor forsake us till the end of the age, Jesus gave us the security of intimacy with Himself, in and through every trial or danger
