WHAT DID GOD SAY TO ME THIS MORNING

This morning was different! I got up and started my prayer time. I felt so sleepy and so I did what I normally do, I started moving around and changing positions. It didn’t matter what I did, I felt this heaviness. I was like Holy Spirit, please just use me and wake me up. So I prayed and then I began to listen for the interpretation. I heard nothing. I said well let me pray some more. I prayed for any distractions and demonic spirits to be removed, just in case I had dozed off and something tried to enter. So I prayed even more. I heard, don’t slow down on your assignments. Pick up speed. That was it. I kept listening for more. I was like…wait, Holy Spirit, you know I have this blog to write and people are depending on me, and I am depending on you to talk to me. So I kept waiting. I kept shifting. I felt sleepy even while standing up. I was like…what is going on this morning?

Then I heard this: When the enemy learns your pattern, I will switch it up, so be ready for the switch. Go take a shower.

Yall, I normally don’t start the getting ready process until after prayer time. Sometimes to be totally honest, I will get kids off to school and get the blog written, and THEN get ready. But when the Holy Spirit said Go Shower, I went. I was hoping my kids woke up on their own because I was not going to deviate from the instruction I just gotten (side note: they were up and had gotten ready on their own! YAY!)

When I got out, I still had my notepad in the bathroom. That’s when Holy Spirit gave me this:

  • Be laser focused this week.

  • Everyday won’t be full of instruction. You have all your assignments, so now it’s execution time. Get them done!

  • Some days it will be Bible Study in your prayer time. It won’t always be instructional. Bring your Bible to the prayer closet from now on.

It’s a new week of obedience and I hear you Holy Spirit. Be flexible and ready to do what I say do, when I say do it.

Have a great Monday!!

A Word from God.
