Look out for each other

For the last week or so I have heard about human trafficking. I have heard it from three different people. Each of them speaking of different age ranges, female, and male. There are people out there really stealing people. There are demons walking amongst us.

They are talking people for labor, sex, body parts and organs. We are in a time where all hell is breaking out. Or is it just an adaptation of what we have been living for years? For hundreds of they have been raping, pillaging, and stealing people like they are property. It is our time to protect our family, friends, and neighbors.

The woman I heard speaking of it yesterday said that her apartment complex had something to do with it. The maintenance workers were who tried to stop her kids from getting on the bus, but she was looking out the window. God told her to go out and check what was going on. The man was blocking her daughter from getting on the bus. She spoke about nobody thinks nothing of people that have jobs like that having those big old vans.

We have to become so alert. We have to clean out so we can hear warnings from God. We have to care about a situation not looking right whether we know them or not. We have to protect each other. Also, we can't be gullible ourselves. If you see people following you around let someone know and ask someone to walk with you. One person spoke of people offering modeling/ acting jobs to young people and them never being able to leave. Talk to your children and make sure they hear you.

God protect us from this cruel world. Amen

Dwell in Gods presence

Yesterday my pastor spoke on how important it is to dwell in God's presence. When the Holy Spirit falls and fills us up. We will feel it and acknowledge it, but we will go on to the next thing. What will happen if you dwell with God for a while? I can tell you firsthand that is where breakthrough happens.

When God's spirit begins to flow. It pierces you, if you are open to receive it. Dwelling in his presence you can get correction, direction, revelation, love, peace, joy, and unity. When you are in God's presence nothing else should concern you but to hear, feel, and see what message God is trying to give to you. You have to be open to let God in and be obedient.

God has been working on me heavy on being obedient. Just telling me things to do and seeing if I would listen to it. Some things have made me uncomfortable about how it made me feel, how the person would receive it, and sometimes me just thinking what I was doing was good enough. God showed me yesterday that I have to be obedient to exactly what he said.

This week was training. Even when I wanted to do it a different way or do it later, I was convicted to it how I was told right then. After I was obedient to God's instruction, I would feel a peace that the conviction would not let me have. I knew that God was training me to hear him and move. I thank God for his patience and working with me to be who he is calling for me to be. God I will dwell daily. Sit still in your presence to let you feel me up. Less of me and more of you daily God.

Don't sweat the small stuff

I used up so much precious time with over thinking on things that don't matter. I let things bother me that didn't change anything. I would give up hours of positivity on sulking and being angry, all it did was waste my time. I no longer sweat the small stuff.

It's not that I don't think, oh they trying to get over or that was petty. I don't use more than that though on it anymore. I am not who I am or do the things I do but anyone but God. I want him to be proud of me. See that I decide to take the higher road when I have become so good at coming down to your level and get that instant gratification.

I am now in it for the long game. I don't have time to let that petty moment delay anything in my life. When situations are uncomfortable for me, I get to choose if it is worth dealing with it or not. You can no longer force my hand. I smile more because I understand no one has control over me or my actions. I stand in accountability for the things I do, and the blame isn't on anyone else.

I am my most powerful in this space. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say. I am no longer an emotional coward. I no longer need to people please. I no longer look for affirmation from outside of God that I am on the right track. I am on assignment, and I have work to do.
