I Have Fired the Shot…Take Off!

   I had a dream. The primary thing I remember was a gun being fired over and over. As I awoke and began to seek God about the meaning this is what I saw. I saw runners at the starting gate down in position as runners do, and the gun was fired and runners took off. Then it was fired again and a second set of runners took off, then again and again. Until thousands of runners were running their race.

   I heard the Spirit of God say: “I have fired the shot for you to start your new race. It is time to leave the ready position and go. It is time to run into what you were created for. You have been waiting long enough. You think you have been waiting for Me, but truly I have been waiting for you. You have been in a position of ready, but too afraid to take off. Today, I say to you, TAKE OFF!!! I have fired your starting shot, GO!!!! I am with you; we will run this together. You have been stuck in your starting position too long. I am breaking you free from fear and have fired the shot. I am giving you your breakthrough so that you can now break out.”

   People of God, He isn't just bringing us out, He is bringing us IN. Who is ready to go into their destiny? Who is ready to take off and go into what God is wanting to take you into?

   He has fired the shot, the starting shot. It is up to us to take off and start. He even said He is breaking us out, breaking us out of the fear that has tried to contain us and hold us in. He has fired the shot, He is breaking us free from fear, all we have to do is start.

   Deuteronomy 6:23 (NKJV) “Then He brought us out from there, that He might bring us in, to give us the land which He swore to our fathers.”

   Don't be afraid to run fast. Don't be afraid to trust your Daddy God. Take off, the gun has fired. He is running the race with you.
I keep hearing the gun beginning fired and seeing the runners take off. Some faster than others, some running a sprint, some running a little slower. Many of you, once you take off, all I see is you running and running, and I see Daddy God running your race with you. Don't be afraid of the curves you will encounter in your race. The curves are shifts!!! As you run your race there will be shifts you encounter along the way. God says to you, “Fear not, I am in the shifts. I am in the curves. I am in the race. I am in your adventures!!! When you come to the curve, lean into Me, I will take you through the curve to the next path. Shifts are in the adventure. I am ready, are you?”

   Deuteronomy 26:9 (NLT) “He brought us to this place and gave us this land flowing with milk and honey!”
He is bringing you out to take you in. Allow Him to break you through/out, then break you in.

   Micah 2:13 (NKJV) “The One who breaks open will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go
out by it; their King will pass before them, With the Lord at their head.”

   He is breaking you out, He has fired the Starter Gun, it is time for you to take off. Some of you will feel as if you are running as fast Elijah when he outran the chariot.
I Kings 18:46 (NLT) “Then the Lord gave special strength to Elijah. He tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab’s chariot all the way to the entrance of Jezreel.”

   I see accelerated movement for those who will take off with the Lord. It is TIME to take off. God has fired the starting shot. Will you start? Will you take off with your Daddy God? This isn't a relay race, where you pass the baton. This is you running your race with God. Don't try to pass off what He is calling you to do, to someone else. Run YOUR race. He has fired the shot to start! GO Sons and Daughters of God!!! Start, be accelerated by the power of God, by God Himself, into your destiny. I believe each one of us needs to do a prophetic act: Do what a runner in the starting position does when the starting shot is fired: take off!!
