Time to Rise Up

Time to Rise Up


“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as MY chosen instrument], And before you were born, I consecrated you [to Myself as My own]; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 Amplified Bible


This morning, the first thing I heard from Holy Spirit is…it’s time to rise up and be who I called you to be. Stop acting and being beneath WHO I called you to be. Rise up and lead.

Check out Jeremiah 1:5-10 in the Easy Translation! It is broken down in such a way that you can easily see yourself. God chose Jeremiah. He chose you too.

When God chooses you, and you try to come back with, but Lord I am only…He quickly lets you know, don’t say that you are only this or only that. He chose you for a specific purpose, and your goal is to hear Him speak to you, so you can know what the plans are for your life.

Here’s is what else Holy Spirit said this morning:

  • Keep focusing on financial obedience. Being broke and mis-managing what I bless you with is not ME. (Here is a quick little book by Kenneth Hagin that I recently read. If you have been saying I need to read more and I need to get my finances together, this book is a great start for you.

  • Be an influencer for Me and My Ways. Live your life in such a way that it reflects me. Don’t compromise.

  • No more build-a-bears. Get out of that mindset that you have to build a person up or make them your project. The next person I send for you will come already built, and be stuffed with My Word, and clothed in their right mind. Stay out of build-a-bear. He’s not there (And for the men reading this: She’s not there).

  • You’re not waiting on Me. I am waiting on You.

  • Expand

  • Finish what you already started. Finish Strong!

  • Track your time so you can see what you’re doing everyday. Readjust your schedule to benefit MY WILL for your life.

  • Represent. Who will people say you represent?

  • Hope. Hebrews 11:1 KJV: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 Easy Version: “This is what it means to trust God: We will be sure about the things that we hope for. We will be sure in our minds about things that we cannot even see.”

I pray that whatever God has for you in this blog today that you receive it and begin to pray for Him to speak to you more so that you can live on purpose for Him.

I am headed to prayer service at my church because God always has more for me there!

Be Blessed Today!
