Your Yes Carries Weight!

“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.” 

Proverbs 18:16

We all have great gifts. God has created all of creation with distinct gifts that is to bless the world, a gift that is to reflect the glory of God.

Did you know that your gift too is an expression of the One who created you in His image?

We live in a society where one’s gift is often used to gain fame or money or is used to negotiate personal pleasures and enjoyment. But could it be that your gift is supposed to do so much more?

Could it be that your gift is supposed to bring life in this world?

Could it be that your gift is supposed to ignite a shift in this world?

Could it be that your gift is supposed to kindle a fire within souls?

Could it be, that your gift, is so much more than its function?

Perhaps that is why we cannot give our yes so freely and without intuition. Be reminded today that your yes carries weight!

Because you have the power of the living God on the inside of you, because your lungs carry the breath of an Almighty God, the Creator of heaven and earth, your yes carries weight!

What have you said Yes to lately? And Why?

Friend,  I dare you to ponder on your most recent agreements. I dare you to question the Yes that you have given everything that has so easily enticed you for pleasure sake.

If your Yes to God, stirred up Satan and his demons to wage war at you from all sides, if your Yes to God broke generational chains and disrupted hell’s plans, if your Yes alerted heaven that another warrior has heed the call for the kingdom, how can your Yes to anything else not carry so much weight?!

Friend, allow me to remind you today that your agreement means everything to God! Especially when it comes to your gifts.

There is a mission assigned to the gifts you carry. There is a place and time, a perfect place and time that is to reveal your gift for the glory of God and God only and I must tell you, that nothing else will do.

No matter how good it feels, if you have said yes with your gift to something or someone that is not glorifying the Gift-giver who has pre-ordained the gift to be brought inf front of great men, the Spirit of God is speaking to you.

It says look again before saying Yes.

I pray for you as I pray for me too on today. May the God of our gifts, realign our senses along with our hearts to bring our gifts before God so that He may bring us before great men for His glory in Jesus name. Amen.

 

 

Your Surrender Is Your Freedom

surrender

Obedience brings clarity. Obedience brings confidence. Obedience brings peace…

Imagine having an army of God’s angels behind you and still walking up to any man and asking them if you are worthy or good enough. How crazy does that sound to you?!

Confident people don’t go around hoping for validation or confirmation about anything because they know there is a Mighty God backing them up.

What if I told you that you would have every single thing you need and more if you just surrender to the will of God?!

Just say yes.

You’ve been running long enough, hiding long enough, avoiding long enough. This commitment is inevitable.

Friend, just say yes.

I would be lying to you if I said that your flesh will be as willing as your spirit to heed the call of God.

There will come a time, sooner rather than later, that you will feel the shift in your body, you will feel the discomfort in your flesh as your spirit kills off the you that was attached to the flesh. You will feel your flesh fighting to live as you refuse to feed it any longer. You will feel as though there is total chaos going on inside of you. But you will thank God for it. Because the battle is not yours, it’s the Lord’s.

You will start to want and do things that you never thought you would want. You will start to look forward to that secret place, that quiet time with your Maker, to simply bask in the glory of His companion. You will want a closeness to God like you never imagined and it will overwhelm you. But it will also elevate you.

It is when you say yes, that the power of God in you is activated and will then command all the thoughts and principalities that aimed to exalt itself above God’s calling on your life, to bow down and succumb to the living Spirit inside of you.

Friend, don’t you know that your surrender is your freedom?!!!

Christ laid down His life to set you free! Free of the pain and bondage of this passing world. And please know that this world will pass. But the Word of God shall remain forever. Christ was the Word that became flesh to set you free.

Why won’t you say yes? Why won’t you surrender to God?

Friend, what are you so scared of? What exactly do you think you’d be giving up, that the Kingdom of God can’t restore tenfold?!

When you heed the Call of the Most High, you become free of so many of the world’s ills. You become free of sin, free of judgment, free of insecurities, free of hate, free of lack, free of doubts, free of confusion, free of strongholds, and free of the convicting lies of this world.

Many of us think that saying yes to God means saying “No” to fun while alive. Yet, heeding the call of the Most High God as His chosen, is the complete opposite. Your agreement with God aligns you with the very best and nothing less. Laughter, hope, goodness, and overflowing blessings. Does that resemble misery at all?!

All that you have been chasing does not even come close to the greatness of your God!

With your surrender comes faith, hope, and eternal life! Christ gave up His own life to make sure of it!

Friend, just say yes.

I say Yes with you today in faith and hope that our heavenly Father will look down upon us and renew our minds to follow Him and Him alone in Jesus name. Amen.
