Narrow Path
By Margaret D. Mitchell
Week of March 8, 2026
I heard The Lord say, “Remove the junk and I will release you.”
So, what does this mean?
In short, it means it’s time to clean up to move up. And part of this overcoming is not overlooking. The task at hand is important and not mundane. The hourglass before you reveals it’s time to move rapidly. So, pay attention to the details of Holy Spirit’s leading, His specific instructions to you. Go with His flow, because none of His promises to you will happen outside of His way or timing.
To further explain, it’s time to let go of every ungodly weight of every kind—every residual wound and sin, especially unbelief—and whatever is no longer useful, so the obstacles along your race will be a nonissue and you’ll be able to hit the mark of personal destiny.
Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV reminds us by saying, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith…”
And Proverbs 3:6 AMP says, “In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].”
Intentionally choosing God’s way of this narrow path of life inherently means walking against destruction, according to Matthew 7:13-14 NIV. And this alignment requires humble surrender to His will, since He opposes the proud (1 Peter 5:5).
And the way we’ll know what is right is through God’s supply of revelation-truth.
So, it’s time to be centered more on God’s narrow path, because many are about to be birthed into a greater expanse, a whole new life, where they’ll live out the renewal of their minds and the rebirth of their souls more abundantly.
Internally, you may have experienced God setting you more free lately through a rapid sequence of conviction and confession that can only happen by Holy Spirit releasing revelation-understanding into your soul. Know that this is part of His birthing experience for you.
Externally, He may be leading you to clear out clutter from your physical space to make room for the new He’s about to open up to you. Again, this is a part of His birthing experience for you.
As God quickens His processes right now, He’ll lead you directly into a big, sudden shift, much like a final push precedes a baby’s deliverance into an expanded world.
As you finish up, let any challenge grow you in holiness, as you practice submission to God until you see the outward alignment of it all.
In these necessary adjustments of your more sanctified walk, know it’s for God’s purposes to converge manifest breakthrough for you and through you into better and far better, believing the joy you’ll experience in the reward will make it all worthwhile.
Remember, that the meek inherit the earth and that God is enough (Matthew 5:5 NKJV). He’ll supply all of your needs—including His revelation-truth—as you move in His direction for you.
He will be with you the entire way. He never fails; and because of Him and your willing application of His instructions, you will not fail.
God is waiting for you to join Him in this confluent move to reorder and revive. It’s time to trust Him all the way, because much is in His hands for you right now.
You have a lot to look forward to as He brings you into a sweet-smelling place, a new, fragrant place of honorable worship.
I declare His victory over you.
In Jesus’ Mighty Name,
Amen!
