Living Above the Radar



Did you know there is a place that you can go where your movement is not detected? There is an altitude in space were there is no radar detection. Radar is the mechanism in which objects are detected and monitored in space and air. Air traffic controllers use radar as a method of directing traffic in the air where we have traffic lights to regulate traffic on the streets. As I was driving the other day, I heard "over the radar". I inquired of the Lord what was the meaning of this and the reply was "live above the radar". Now I know most of you are familar with this but have heard it like this: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.", Psalms 91:1 or "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.", Isaiah 40:31.

Now more than ever with the promises of God being made manifest it is important that we "live above the radar". I have had many experiences of having a dream of God being stirred in my life only for it to be hindered by the thoughts and actions of another. Most often, it was because I shared prematurely what God was doing or was about to do in my life. Just because God filled me in on what was about to take place didn't mean that I was given permission to share it just yet with others. It reminds me of another dreamer, Joseph, who prematurely shared his dream and was immediately opposed.

Satan is always looking for opportunites to stick up his ugly head and lend a helping hand. Being a spirit, he is keenly aware of spiritual activity. Being alerted to movement in the spirit puts him on alert for physical manifestation. He doesn't know what God is doing or will do, but we make it easier for him by revealing God's plan. He immediately strategizes, implement plans and set up roadblocks of delay. We know that God is all powerful and His plan will not be defeated or denied! Praise God for Jesus!!!! However, the process can be prolonged unnecessarily. I truly believe that there are some things that God wants to manifest without opposition. Just because we have become accustomed to it doesn't mean that God can't just say it and it is.

Just as Satan is keenly aware of spirtual activity, as you walk in relationship with God, He will make you sensitive to spiritual activity and His movement. He will call you aside in a quiet place to reveal Himself to you in a greater way and His plan and purpose for your life. Sometimes it is the big picture then the "step by step" walking it out or just the opposite, "step by step" then the big picture. Before manifestation, there is a time of quiet reflection, cleansing, instructions and the follow through of instructions given. When done as instructed, there is always manifestation of that He promised.

In this month of self and God-driven evaluation, ask God to help you no matter how excited to sit still in the place of "quiet", only share those things He release you to share to encourage and motivate and to embrace the promise no matter how contrary it is to what you expected or thought you knew.
