Why is trip planning so important to us?
Our rides are to be enjoyable, but we do come across problems from out of nowhere. Good bikers should plan their trips before going on their journey. Sudden and rash decisions can lead to many problems. Let’s look at 2 Chronicles Chapter 14:7 on how your bike rides can be fun and safe. This verse has some major key words walls, towers, gates, and bars. These words will be applied two different ways: naturally, how we will co-rule and co-reign with our Lord here on earth and spiritually, how Jesus takes care of us. Major Key Words Walls - Wall’s represent protection. We want safety all around us on our ride. Let’s protect our bikes, and/or trailers also. We get protection through prayer. Spiritually, praying is commanding his angels to protect us from harm or mechanical problems and trusting Jesus to send support our prayers. During prayer be aware, the Holy Spirit may tell us something that might need attention. We don’t want to over look any problems. Our walls may become weak, or broken. So, let’s pray and keep those walls up and strong for our enjoyable ride. Towers - Provide a way to see out from high above. Means you are overlooking your trip. You take time to inspect your bikes. You look at each part carefully. It requires us to look at other sources such as the internet, TV, and cell phones. These sources tell you things like the weather, road constructions, detours, closed roads, and where rough areas are. Spiritually, the Lord is watching over us from above the same way. He wants to make certain we are healthy, in a good position, and researched his word and ready to spread his word for him. His concerns are to keep us safe until we reach his destination in our lives. Gates - The Map represents a gate that has been opened. This means the information and the foot work has been fulfilled from the tower. It will lead us to our destination. The map is the written source of the vision to be accomplished. A good map can show us many things, like rest areas, mileage, types of highways, and names of towns. The map is a very essential tool to our open gate. Spiritually, the Lord opens gates the same way when the time has come to tell those who need to hear his word. We then take his path as instructed and all the encouraging word he’s given us and take it to his people so they can hear that word. Bars –Means it gives us a opportunity to see things ahead of us. This prevents us entering into harm’s way before the door is opened. This is where sudden and rash decisions have caused a false door to be opened. Now is the time to see everything that the enemy is using to stop us from enjoying our ride and fix it. Then we can be safe and fun. Spiritually, this is where the Lord shows us how the enemy’s traps are trying to stop us from getting his word out to his people. We can see where he wants us to go before this happens. This is where you will find having your walls up; getting into our tower are very important before entering our gates to adventure on the highways. Use this principle for your ride and taking out his word. Get prayed up, get his instructions, and then go where he tells you to go. Thank you for being with me Lord! I would like to encourage you to read the whole chapter from beginning to end. It will clearly give you a picture of victory that can only describe our Lord was with us. Lord I come to you boldly and ask that whosoever reads this tract that it touches their hearts and to receive your word to make their journey’s, whether riding with pleasure or doing your works, safe and enjoyable. Amen.
