Agree with God-Part 2

 Hey y'all, what’s up. Hot off the presses-I got a follow up to the last post. I just knew I was agreeing with God when he told me to stay with my parents again. I enjoyed being there for a while, but then the new year came. New year, new me, I thought, I started feeling like I don’t need to unpack too much since God said I would not stay here forever. I wanted to leave some things packed up so when it was time to go, I would be ready. Then, I started wanting my own place more and more, forget the promise God gave me, I need my own place. I don’t need to wait, God is moving and shifting things so I can do this. God will give me whatever I want. I was praying all the way, seeking guidance, and researching houses. I even contacted a lender, prequalified, and was getting ready to start looking for another house. I just knew this was the Will of God because he didn’t block or stop anything. 

While it was a new year, God was cultivating me to be the original person he wants me to be; not a new me doing new things, but doing the things he originally planned for me to do. After much prayer and guidance, God told me no. It was not time for me to logistically move, but to move spiritually in the direction he wants me to. That meant more time in the Word of God-Bible, more prayer time, more fasting. Participating in the church ministries and other support systems to make me accountable for the call of God on life. 

Now, I’m content living here with my parents, doing the work of the Lord from this God ordained place, logistically and spiritually. I was not submitted to God at all, I had my own ideas and plans for how I wanted to live in God. 

Now, my prayer is God take all of me and do with me whatever you want to do. I submit my will to you, crucify my will so that I only want what you want for me. I submit all of who I am to you, take me and mold me into who you want me to be.

What areas are you holding back from God and saying Lord, I don’t want to submit these or that? He wants it all so he can make you like HIM.

Until next time…
