Hey Ya’ll,
Let's Pray. ππ½ Father God in the name of Jesus thank you for a new day, another chance to give you glory, and for being everything we could ever need. Keep your hand of favor upon us. And in seasons where we find ourselves outside your good graces thank you for a way of return. Thank you for unconditional β₯οΈlove, ever enduring mercy, and sufficient grace. In Jesus name Amen.
Ehhh. Have you ever had a moment where you have so much to say that you don’t know what to say or where to start? Well that’s where i’m at right now in this moment. I’m reminded of a post I did before where I talked about Holy Spirit making groanings π©for us (see bible Romans 8:26). So after a women carries a child for 9 months she goes into labor, and it’s not only hard, but painful. You may be wondering, sis what does that have to do with anything you’re talking about? Well natural birth and spiritual birthing are a lot alike. π£οΈLet’s talk a little about spiritual birthing.
When God gives you an π‘idea, assignment, word, and purpose it’s liken to a seed. He places it in your heart/mind to receive water and nutrients so that it grows. And depending on the type of seed it is it will grow and produce after its own kind (when tended to properly). This is the same process in natural birthing. Basic biology says cows produce cows, chickens produce chickens, and a π§βπ§βπ§βπ§man & women produce a boy or girl. This process is called the reproduction process. In order that offspring would be brought forth.
For the sake of time & space I just want to focus on offspring (Read all Colossians 1 w/ focus on verses 10-20). π Because God is VERY concerned with what we produce. In fact He has entrusted us to take care of that/those which He has given us. Contrary to popular belief we are not self made. Our life really isn’t our own, and neither are the things we own. You may think how is that? That’s my car, my house, my children, my money. Just as the saying goes my, my, my. π¨That’s exactly how I feel about anyone who believes and trusts in themself as self made. Wake up call. If God decided to not wake you up today, you would be as they say now a days unalived.
But so many of us do what we want to, say what we want to, go where we want to. This generation is a DIY (do it yourself) kind of culture/society. Well friend that’s ok for an arts & craft project but not for your life. It’s really not a game, playing russian roulette and uno with your life is crazy. π΅βπ«I don’t say this to scare anyone, but it’s dangerous out here in these streets ya’ll and the bible says it’s going to get worse. Now is high time. Get in church, get in God, read your bible, build a relationship with God. Come as you are (He does not care about your bad ways) just don’t stay as you are. Let God help you!ππ½
I’m speaking from experience. I tried living life my way long enough to know. IT DOES NOT LEAD TO LIFE. πBeing stubborn, mean, disobedient, arrogant, high, and mighty will lead to destruction, disaster, and death. We don’t get to live how we want and think that everything is going to be ok. π·No. That’s not how this works. We follow God and then everything is going to be ok. I speak this way because I care about your life and future. Whatever’s blocking YOU from God LET IT GO!
I always hear ππ½ people talk about Grace. Well His grace is sufficient but not unlimited. Remember He gives grace to the humble. If we are lifted up in pride (what we want) we won’t receive grace (unmerited favor). The only requirement is humility. No ego’s allowed. You will be surprised sometimes it takes a good test/trial to reveal just how out of alignment we are. Think of it this way. π¦΄If your bone is out of place it may be painful to pop it back in place initially. But short term pain beats long term pain. Imagine walking around like that forever and never taking the necessary steps to recover. OUCH. Let’s end in scripture.
Hebrews 12:11 No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening– it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way. (New Living Translation)
Peace & Love
