What do you want from God? Do you know? Because it will show up in your everyday life. Evaluate your daily schedule/life? Does it look like someone who wants nothing to do with Jesus or who wants just activity or someone who went so far but settled? Let your daily look like one who wants to go all the way w/ Jesus.

Losing my religion. God sent me through a season where He led me to secular music, worldly appearance, and withdrawal from traditional devotion time. I often told God it wasn’t spiritual. I struggled but knew He wanted to remove the rules that created a prison for me and limited me.

Talk to Jesus first. In this season I thought, if you want me to do something you would be better off talking to Jesus first. I don’t have to listen to you or do what you ask, but I do need to do what “thus sayeth the Lord”. Be known for your obedience to Jesus. Let them think to get to you they should go thru Jesus first.

God talks confusion with me. Confusion, disorientation, pressure or are used as tools to see what one does at their worst. God will allow you to be afflicted in this way to see when you are at your worse, what you do. In this time, cling to God and know power, love and a sound mind is on the way.

Just as we have a jealous God, satan gets jealous too. See you are talking to God, being used of God, submitted to God, following God and leaning into all things God. Satan and this world once held your attention and affections. So now he is looking for ways to get into your ministry and relationship with God.

Live in the grace and truth of Jesus Christ. Through Moses the law came. And even grace was built in the law- a foreshadowing of Christ. If they broke it, there was action to take. Paul asks us why live under rule when we are free? Do not sin, but know that you are free to follow Christ. Fall repent get back up. Press.

Sin and gym comparison. In the gym we don’t like comfort. We look for resistance. We challenge ourselves with increasing intensity. We know through struggle, the breaking down, growth will take place. View you walk the same way. Sin exposes your heart; Resist grow through it.

Know that many of you are set apart. Stop trying to adjust yourself so that you can fit into the group and be accepted- whether it be a job, family or even church. You will never fit in because you are set apart, Stop trying. Be who God is called you to be. They will hate you because the hated Christ and He was sinless. He only did what He saw the Father doing and they crucified Him. Stop changing...

Have nothing to do with lawless people. 2 Timothy lets us know what the heart and actions of men will be in end of days. It says HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THESE PEOPLE. Do not feel guilty about distancing yourself or ending relationships with these types of people. The bible instructs you too.

If you are struggling with sin in your Christian walk, know that even Paul struggled. Romans 7:15 lets us peek into the struggle Paul had as he did what he hated but loved good. You are not alone. We all fall short of the glory and none of us have arrived. Repent, seek forgiveness. Press and keep moving forward.

Getting off milk and onto solid food. Do you want to or are you content with your spiritual walk? Are you comfortable? Seek more depth in Jesus. Ascend higher in His ways and thoughts. Lay hold of the new thing. Many should be teaching but are comfortable receiving. Challenge yourself to move into the more

Gods response

Living in isolation is tough. I spoke to God about the challenges of not being able to speak to anybody about the amazing world I’ve been pulled into with the Lord and all that He is doing with me. He told me to embrace my unique and special odyssey and leave what is old and common behind.

Lighten up chosen ones. Yes, it’s hard. It’s difficult. You have been through things you can’t even discuss or wouldn’t even know how to neatly package. You are tired and worn out. Decide you will not wallow in sorrow and despair. Muster up the strength one more time to keep going and find JOY and LAUGHTER

We all suffer and struggle. We are all tempted. Know that whatever you are going through no matter what stage of Christianity you are in- from baby to the mature, we are experiencing challenges. Do not feel unworthy or alone. Give it over to God and let Him make you strong. Then go strengthen your brother.

In giving wisdom as a Christian, know that many are coming to you to hear the voice of God whether directly or through your interpretation of Him based on scripture reading, relationship and overall, Christian experience. You are an ambassador of God. Always seek Gods words or redirect them to God.

God tells me I need to give up the “woe is me” thing I got going on. What He put me through was beautifully rough, but I’ve had enough time to rest, sulk, recover, reestablish and now its time to get moving. It was by His authority and purpose.  He wanted me to seek joy, curiosity and obedience once more.

Again, tell yourself the truth. You don’t like them. They are mean. You hate the church you go to. You don’t like the job. You don’t want to Be a (_) anymore. Then give that over to God so He can give you strategy for it. Dont live in denial or fakeness. Face it and ask God to help you deal with it and overcome

Don’t overstay your time at a place or with a person simply because on paper it seemed like the right thing. Trust what the stirring is to consider leaving. Bring that to God. God WILL have you leave brother, mothers, children, wives, churches, jobs and ministries if it does not serve his will for you.

Feeling like God lied to you? Often times, God will communicate a thing to you and when it doesn’t come as expected you get mad and think God lied. No, it simply happened in a way that you may not be able to detect and not as imagined. This is a tool to test and reveal the heart and provide training.

Don’t pursue wealth over anointing. Consider when you get wealthy, what will you do with it? I want God’s anointing on me so everything I touch with that money will be of Him and used for His glory. I don’t want wealth to consume me. I want to use it for kingdom building, safety security, family and Lil’ fun.

 Are you stressing? Where is your faith? Know that as long as you are seeking God's will and following Him, you are doing all you can. Whatever happens good or bad will work out for your good. Simply trust Him. He knows your limitations and can guide even course correct w/o ur awareness
