STEPS OF TRANSITION

 

HH, Patriarch Godfrey Gregg

The journey of faith is not limited to the span of our earthly years—it is a walk that stretches into eternity. For those who belong to the Lord, life is more than a fleeting moment; it is the beginning of an everlasting union with God. Our walk with Him is both present and eternal.

From the beginning, God has desired fellowship with man. “Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away” (Genesis 5:24). Enoch’s life reminds us that walking with God is not bound by earthly limitations but leads to eternal fellowship with Him.

Jesus confirms this promise of eternal companionship, declaring: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die” (John 11:25-26). Our walk continues beyond death, for in Christ we have eternal life.

Paul describes this journey beautifully: “For we walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Corinthians 5:7). Faith sustains us now, but one day faith will give way to sight when we behold Him face-to-face. This is the fulfilment of our eternal walk—no longer hindered by sin or struggle, but perfected in His presence.

In eternity, our walk will become worship. John’s vision in Revelation reveals this glorious end: “They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy” (Revelation 3:4). What begins as a daily devotion here culminates in everlasting communion with Christ in glory.

So, let us purpose our steps carefully each day, knowing that every moment of obedience on earth is a part of this greater story—the eternal walk with our Lord.


 Reflection: The eternal walk begins now—through faith, obedience, and fellowship with God. One day, we will walk with Him unending, clothed in glory, forever.

Life is full of seasons. God often leads us through times of change—moments where He shifts us from one place, role, or assignment to another. These transitions can feel uncertain, but His Word gives us clear steps to walk in confidence and faith.


1. Seek God’s Guidance

Before taking a step forward, we must look to God for direction.

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5–6)

Transition begins with surrender—placing our plans in God’s hands and allowing Him to order each step.


2. Remember God’s Presence

Change can feel lonely or overwhelming, but God’s presence goes with us.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)

Wherever the new season leads, His presence remains steady.


3. Let Go of the Old

Every transition requires leaving behind something familiar.

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” (Isaiah 43:18–19)

To embrace the new, we must be willing to let go of what once was.


4. Step Forward in Faith

Transition requires action, even when we can’t see the full picture.

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7)

Faith keeps us moving, trusting that God’s way is better than our own comfort or clarity.


5. Trust God’s Timing

Sometimes the waiting season is part of the transition process.

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

God’s timing is always perfect—even when the process feels slow, He is aligning all things for His glory and our good.


Encouragement

Every transition is an opportunity to grow deeper in faith and reliance on God. Don’t fear the unknown—He who began a good work in you will carry it to completion (Philippians 1:6).

GEORGIA GUIDESTONES

  Visiting the Georgia Guidestones: A Mysterious Roadside Attraction By  Paul Entin   /  3.9.20 Standing alone in a field in the middle of rural Elbert County, Georgia, the Georgia Guidestones monument features six granite slabs with ten commandments. But not  the  Ten Commandments. So what is written on the Georgia Guidestones and what do they say about our global future? Read on. People wonder if the Georgia Guidestones really exist because the message inscribed on the granite monolith seems too horrific to believe. Conspiracy theorists point to its writings and its mysterious origin story as proof of a globalist plot to reduce the world population, eliminate national sovereignty, and replace individual rights with a communist dictatorship, among other plans. The Guidestones consist of four, tall, stone slabs. These slabs surround a central slab and a final slab sits on top of them all as a capstone. Slits in the center slab and capstone direct the sunlig...

US GREAT MYSTERIES

      One of the US' greatest mysteries     Atop a desolate hill in a small US town are the Georgia Guidestones: an eerie 19ft tall granite monument with a post-apocalyptic message for the world.   By Shannon Dell 3 September 2015 The drone of the man’s oak didgeridoo reverberated off the granite. “Not that I know when Doomsday is,” he said, parting his lips from the mouthpiece and pointing toward the 19ft tall thick, grey stones a few yards from us. “But whenever it hits, this is right where I’d want to be.” I met Anthony, a hitchhiker from North Carolina, at the site of the  Georgia Guidestones , a mysterious six-piece granite monument atop a desolate hill in the small town of Elberton, Georgia. He had stopped at the site on his way to see the  Coral Castle  – another mysterious stone structure – in Homestead, Florida. I had stopped because I’m a sucker for roadside oddities. “It's no wonder this was chosen as the site for the guidestones. ...
