What are you believing for? What is brewing on the inside of you that you are longing to see fulfilled in your world? What do you dream about as you sleep at night? Do you awake full of hope, knowing that it is going to happen?
This is a season for expectation to increase. It's a season to believe at a higher level. Don't stop dreaming, and don't give up on the things that you are believing for. I promise, they ARE coming to pass.
What if the fulfillment and actualization of what you are believing for is scheduled to happen tomorrow, and you give up today?? The release of your promise could very well be that close. Think of that every day and let it help motivate you to continue to believe BIG.
Galatians 6:9 says "let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap a harvest if we do not lose heart (give up)"
You are closer than you realize. The only way you will not get what you are believing for is if you give up and stop believing. So don't!!
Be open. Stay soft and pliable. Maybe in this season Holy Spirit wants to whisper some new strategy in your ear as you press in. Perhaps He wants to give you a new key to your breakthrough. God is always about the process and the journey. He knows that this waiting season is not meant for discouragement or passivity, but it is meant to stretch you, challenge you, and pull you higher. You will look back on this season and see some of your greatest growth as you've learned to trust at a greater level, learned to activate your faith, learned to stay in hope!
A new strategy is the very thing God dropped into my ear on Monday as I travelled back home from my holidays. For those of you who know me well, you know that I have been struggling with a broken voice for over a year now. I've been able to sing, lead and prophesy still, but with less volume/strength as usual. It's like my "oompher" is broke. So, for all these months I've gone through specialist tests, herbal remedies, and crying out to God for answers, healing, and breakthrough. Some strength has come back, sometimes momentary oomph, but not complete use. Well, God dropped something new into my spirit as I travelled this week. I sensed that I needed to stop asking for restoration in this area. I know - sounds strange - but keep reading.
For months I have been crying out to Him, sometimes begging, for restoration of my voice, that He would bring it back in it's full strength, stronger than ever before. Great prayer. However, over the last couple months specifically I have also been praying for our worship in the house, and sensing that God wants to release something very fresh. A new season of songs, creativity, a rise of the prophetic. A NEW SOUND. I sometimes hear glimpses of it in our Sunday worship. It's beautiful, it's deep, it's heavenly lovely. Now let me take you back to my car/travel revelation...I sensed God tell me stop praying for restoration of my old voice, and to start prophesying and declaring a NEW VOICE. This new sound requires an altogether NEW VOICE. It was a powerful key dropped into my lap, and I sang my whole way home. It was a beautiful release, unlike anything I have ever experienced before.
I share that all to say, keep believing, keep dreaming, and be open to God dropping some fresh strategy into your world in regards to what you are believing for!
It is a new season. And your future is bright.
"Sorrow may last for a night, but JOY comes with the morning." (Psalm 30:5)
Just as a new voice/sound is coming for me, a new release is also coming for you. New oppotunities, new ideas, new relationships, new adventures. Get ready! Don't stop believing! Keep your ears and eyes open!
