Anyone else have a hard time letting go of things or delegating things to other people? It almost seems as if there is a fear of losing control. Losing the power to control the outcome. Do we do that with God? Do we say we trust him but still try to figure out his every move. I try to delegate things to others but have a hard time trusting them if I know I can do it myself. How this problem does me no good. It does not help me to worry or be so concerned over things that I can’t control even though I want to. If I Iet this weight pass from me to God himself, he can make it how it was meant to be. I’ve been doing much lately and it has been a blessing but let’s not let this much be too much where it begins to be too much.
Enemy Lies
The enemy has pushed so many lies into the church that people who are wrong are the loudest. They are so over the top and pushing their evil messages out making them seem like they are perfect human beings. Being a Christian does not mean, you have unholy views about this life. This life is a gift from God. We have divided the church between politics and left each other with no unity. We talk about how much we love God and support other people’s sin because only God can judge. Yet he died for our sins not for us to stay in them. How can we let other people go to hell because we do not want to offend them? God has given us his truth and his word to speak it in love. If someone tells me they are in habitual sin, I’m not going to just say ‘good for you and I support what you are doing’. I know that sin leads to death. Death. How can you say you support someone killing themselves daily and being led further astray from God. Lie #1 all you need to be is a good person and you’ll go to heaven. Lie #2 God calls us to love everybody by showing them we are not against their sin. Lie #3 the Bible is old and we are living in new times.
Majority of people who call themselves Christian are NOT. Please do not be deceived by people who do not quote or live by scripture but only quote and live by the ways of the world.
Be Christian, Be Holy.
You can literally ruin your destiny by doing something God told you not to do. He told you this for a reason. Thankfully we have a gracious, forgiving and loving God. Whenever we walk on the path he directs us back to him. Let us be so swift to run back to him.
Process into the Promise
Everybody wants the promise but nobody wants to go through the process. The process is hard. Being refined by fire will burn, it’ll sting. Some days are easier than others when you don’t think about the pain. Think about how the process is making you stronger, making you better. After you have gone through the process, you are now shining like gold. Gold doesn’t just show up to the platform. You don’t just arrive at your destiny, you go through the journey. Life is not a fast food meal. Promises are not ready whenever you want it, they are ready whenever God wants it. Yes you have been told this before. Gods’ timing is perfect. It’s true. It is not a lie that God has your life all planned out. I mean he did know you before you were born and knit you together in your mother’s womb. You can trust him. You can trust knowing that the God who created all things, knows all things and has all things under control. You may be a mess. You may be felling like you hate feeling like how you feel. Tell yourself to trust in God and lay your worries at his feet. Let him give you rest. Let the refiner refine you into the spitting image of his son. The process isn’t easy but it is worth it. You’ll look back years from now and realize how far you’ve come. You’ll realize that you are who you’ve always wanted to be. You’ll realize that you never missed anything but received everything that God promised he’d give to you but not in the way you thought you’d receive it. You received it his way. His ways are higher , his ways are better. Release it. Release whatever you think you need right now because all you need is God himself. Let him fulfill you so you can keep pouring out all he has graced you with. The promise is right around the corner, it is much near than you think. Enjoy the process.
“In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 1:6-7
Back To You
It’s easy to easy to give up on something you know God has said you’ll have one day but you don’t have it yet. Be inspired by something. Do not let your heart give up. You will see God’s promises prove true. Your life could change in an instant.
Sometimes life can be very difficult as it continues to give us difficulties. People can be insensitive and ruin our day, we get bored with the mundane and the routine, we can lose meaning in our daily activities. Thank God his mercies are new everyday. We need constant renewal of our minds and to challenge ourselves not to stay the same. Do something different, read a new book, watch a new movie, find a new song to sing, dance, laugh, do something to set your heart ablaze. Never let your soul fall asleep. Never let your soul feel like it is dead. Awaken it. Awaken your soul to the possibilities of this life.
God is not done yet, so that’s why you are still breathing. As much as you would like to go home to him and be free from all the worries of the world, you are still here to complete your purpose.
Yes you’ve been hurt but that is not a reason to not believe in love again or that you could be loved. Run back to the one who loves you more than you could ever imagine. Run back to Jesus today. You will not be the same.
Hard Days
Life isn’t also rainbows and happiness. Sometime you have to forgive yourself and move on. Just do better and trust God.
Is Dating Necessary?
What if God has a plan to save us from heartache? All the movies, music and TV we watch make us wish our lives were different. When you wait until God brings you the right one, you are choosing to not take matters into your own hands. Doing it our way usually ends in a mess. When you follow Jesus, you will never walk in darkness. His ways are higher, so we can never know why he puts us through what we go through but we can always know he is on our side. So why not wait until God brings you the right person to partner with for a purpose. He brought Eve to Adam when he knew it was time for him to have a partner. God knows when it is time. Until then, live your life to the fullest and get closer to your creator. Be happy and joyful now. Develop the habit of getting up each morning and praying. Make God the center of your whole life since he is the one who gave you life. Being in his presence is the fullness of joy. When you least expect it, God will bring that person you’ve dreamed of in your life. Let him choose. Dating so many different people can lead to pieces of your heart scattered all over the place. Why not have a complete and whole heart to give to the one God intends to unite you with. Is dating really necessary?
Peace
Let peace reign in your heart when you feel all hope is lost. Hang on to God’s every word. His word is alive and active. It can save you from the hurt and the pain you feel inside. One word from God can set your heart on fire. As tears roll down your face , know that he collects them all. He only speaks life so if you are hearing death, destruction, hopelessness, fear, doubt, anger, sadness… it is not from God. Tell those thoughts to flee in the name of Jesus. Resist them and they will flee. Declare that Jesus is Lord and God’s promises are true. Don’t be mad at the only one who can save you.
Girl And Waiting
All my girls, listen up. Have you ever thought about how hard it is to be you? As females we have to think about checking our surroundings if we’re ever out alone. We have to continuously tell that older man to leave you alone and stop flirting with you. We have to be cautious to avoid getting kidnapped, raped, drugged or murdered just because we are girls. Girls then become women and women have to work and sustain themselves. Then you have to deal with judgements at work if you’re assertive or the annoying male coworker constantly trying to ask you out. Oh and if you ever decided you want to live on your own then you’ll have to take in consideration all the dangers that come with that as a woman. There’s so much to think about and all I have said is in the context of being single. You may be dealing with a jealous or an abusive boyfriend but don’t want to leave him because you like how your pictures look on Instagram. Or you are married and have to take care of your whole household and your kids. There is so much that comes with being a girl.
On top of all that, there may be things that you want to do but can’t because you are a girl, and it is too dangerous. We seem to always need protection. Sometimes I get really ambitious and want to do many things but then I come back to reality that I can never do it alone and the main reason is because I am a girl. Only God can give me the peace, grace, and fearlessness I need to do all that he has called me to do. Yes, there are things I am waiting on and things I want to see fulfilled in my life but it is all in God’s timing. No one has an easy life. Yes, being a girl is tough but being a girl doesn’t mean you’re not enough.
Satisfied
Have you ever been so sick of yourself? Well for me, I’m sick of not being satisfied. Every day I want something new. New food, new clothes, new drinks, new hairstyle, new song, new funny video, new, new, new. I always have to have something new. Our human nature is so fragile, can we ever go a day without wanting something new. The mundane gets mundane and we feel like we are missing out on something we don’t have. It is a really bad disease that I want to break free from. The disease of feeling like I don’t have enough when in reality I have everything. The enemy loves to make us feel like we need more and more. When God has said, do not worry, I will supply all your needs. Most of our wants are not what we need. I want a new shirt but I don’t need it. I want to spend money but I do not need to. I want to change something about myself but I don’t need to, I’m so sick, sick of all of my wants. I need more of my needs.
