Seek Ye First

By -

This was a blog that I had in my draft for almost 6 years!  Not sure why it never got published, or let alone finished.  But as I read over it, I understand a little more...

Do we really understand what it means to seek Him first?
That means inquire of Him first. Before asking anyone else. Place first into your thinking Kingdom impact and results. Does what I'm about to do or even say benefit the Kingdom in a positive way?
Many times a "good" idea is not always a "God" ideas.  So it's important that we seek God first in all decisions not matter how great or small.

"The spirit of the Lord is saying: Seek me first.
I have a lot going on in my mind in regards to what God wants me to do. I’m searching for new employment. I don’t want anything full time b/c I would like the flexibility that I have now.  I’m wondering if I should try to work on my own. So many thoughts are whirling in my head.  I was driving to work this morning listening to Kelanie Glocker “All Creatures of Our God & King” and I thought about worship. Didn’t get all deep into it. Just thought about a convo I had w/ a first lady yesterday about a worship conference. I was like I need to talk to her more about that.  As soon as I said that I heard God say, seek me first.  It was so quiet but yet so loud. I knew immediately what He was talking about. And all I could say was Amen. We hear the scripture so much: seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matt 6:33) "

Wrestlemania....

This last week I was kind of in a funk…not funky lol but just feeling blah.   I let the cares of my world get to me. I had to fall asleep listening to music because my mind would not slow down long enough for me to fall asleep.   Yesterday evening I found myself sitting in my room in the dark with the door closed….just…didn’t even know what I was thinking…… I got up this morning and said my prayer as I got ready for work….it was a tough morning because Nazir seemed EXTRA cranky. Surprisingly, I didn’t let that get to me. As I drove to work I had Pastor Lloyd Pulley tuned in on my radio.   But I really wasn’t listening.   All of a sudden something hit me…….no not a car thankfully. The Holy Spirit hit me.   He was like “child of God what are you doing?”   He didn’t need to say much more after that.   I was like you right.   I began to encourage myself.   I began to speak against this funk and call it out of me.   I told the enemy he needs to shut up, go somewhere and be seated.   He’

Not Just visitation.........

By -
So this morning while I was praying....I asked God to never let me leave His presence. I don't just want visitation but i want habitation.  I asked Him how do I do this. He asked me what does Psalm 34:1 say? I said it says: I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. He said well you know that I inhabit the praises of my people (according to Psalm 22:3). I said yes Lord.  Then He responded live Psalm 34:1. If you continually praise me, I will inhabit your praise.The word continually means without cessation or intermission; unceasingly; always. The word inhabit means to live or dwell in (a place), as people; to exist or be situated within; dwell in.  When we always have a praise of thanks giving for God, He will dwell within us....Many times we complain that we don't feel God's presence. Are you praising Him?  Are you blessing His name?  Praise is not something you do on Sunday morning "when the beat drops". You ca

It's Time 4 Transparency

By -
God dropped this into my spirit several months ago.  A friend was asking me what she should name her twitter account. It was for women who were victorious over a life in the entertainment industry. The purpose of the account was for a group of women to share their testimonies in hopes that women who are currently in the entertainment would be delivered.  Immediately the name Time4Transparency came to me. I tried to get a message to her with the name but I was having trouble sending it.  A few minutes later, she told me she created the account cuz she came up with the name. I kinda was sad cuz I liked the name God told me. Later that day I heard God whisper to me: it was meant for you. It all started when I published my first book Summer of 2010. It took 6 years but I unbeknownst to me, began my time 4 transparency.  Although I shared a lot of my testimony, there was a lot more I was holding back.  Now I know if you read my book, you are probably like oh gosh...what more could have h
