Empty Your Hands to Make Room for More

Recently Jay and I were out working on our place taking something apart and I had nuts and bolts in my hand, and I said to Jay, “I have to empty my hand to make room.” After a minute or so Jay asked me to repeat what I had said, I did and he said the Lord really highlighted that to him. 
 
Within the next day or two the Lord really began to speak to me about what I had said. I was speaking about the nuts and bolts in my hand, but God was speaking about so much more.
 
“What do you have in your hands/hands you need to get rid of to make room? What are you holding onto that you need to release so I can give you the NEW and the MORE that I have for you? Do you really want to settle for where you are and what you have? Or will you lay that down, release it, get out of your past, get out of a limited lifestyle and empty your hands so I can give you more?
I am ready for My sons and daughters to rip the limits off, release what they have been holding onto, let it go, open their hands and live how I have destined for them to live. Who or what are you afraid to let go of? I have new alignments for you. It is break away time. It is time to free yourselves from your past, to free your hands up for more. How can I give you more if your hands are full of things. Release it and make room for more,” says the Lord. 
 
Matthew 25:29 (NKJV) “For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who dies not have, even what he has will be taken away.”
 
Luke 12:33-34 (NKJV) “Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no  thief approaches nor moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
 
Isaiah 43:18-19 (NKJV) “Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
 
Proverbs 11:24 (CSB) “One person gives freely, yet gains more; another withholds what is right, only to become poor.”
 
To be a sower of seed you have to open your hand to release the seed into the ground so it can grow. A farmer has to release the seed in order for it to grow into a harvest. If he holds onto the seed all he has is seed. But if he releases the seed he has in his hand it becomes a harvest. We must release what God has given us. Freely we have been given, freely give. This word is about not holding on to what has given you but releasing it so He can give you more. It isn't just finances. It is everything. He has given you gifts to use for His glory. Don't hold them in, Let Him use them. Let Him use your hands to heal, deliver, save and set free. Let Him use your voice to decree, declare and to prophesy. He has given you finances to bless others. Be His conduit, be His hands and feet. Be His love. As He is, so are you in this world. 
 
Open your hands and release what is in them and receive more from the Lord. Jesus is ready to give you more, are you ready to receive?
