In our previous study
(Philippians 3:12-16) we learned about experiencing forward
spiritual momentum. But the problem with momentum alone is that
while it can propel you ahead it can also be taking you down the
wrong road. Consider for example the latest terrorist act in San
Bernardino, California. The shooters had lots of zealous momentum
yet they were completely focused on the wrong thing spiritually.
Obviously, for spiritual momentum to be genuinely effective it has
to be coupled with the right focus. So here’s what we have to see .
. . When we allow spiritual momentum and true spiritual focus to be
brought together in our lives by the Holy Spirit then we will be
right where we are supposed to be in our walk with Jesus. It means
that spiritually we’ll not only have the wind in our sails but that
it will be blowing us toward the right shore! What then are the
things that our Lord would have us focus our eyes upon spiritually
to give direction to our momentum? The Apostle Paul gives us six
spiritual realities to be looking at constantly in order to find
our spiritual focus in a world that is completely out of
focus.
