I would like to thank @Robert Fields for sharing this with me. This a midweek service from his church that offers some great gems that honestly align PERFECTLY with what we have been talking about in the devotionals! I would HIGHLY recommend watching this it was truly a gem for me and I know it will provide some breakthrough for you as well! Also Rob if you’d like to add anything please feel free. https://www.youtube.com/live/lPRKdNLHnVU?is=A4uR1t2Yyl4N8BVs

Hi everyone, I pray everyone is having a great start to your morning. I want to first say thank you for you all that have been interacting with the daily devotional in any way throughout this last week. I would love to hear what you all have gotten from them! As you all saw I didn’t post one yesterday because yesterday started my weekend sabbath. I’ll be taking some intentional rest this weekend as I spend time with family and enjoy life. I would encourage you all to take a sabbath of your own. Let this be time for you to soak in the new and really allow God to minister to you in that time. I love you all. Have a great weekend!

I was in the midst of making dinner last night and Lord dropped a Word in my spirit: "You ARE the blue print. Stop looking for it" A truth that instantly set me free and pulled me back into alignment. I'm sure as creatives in some form or fashion we have searched far and wide looking for the answer and the blueprint for what God has put on the inside of us. Maybe you're someone that God has called to be the first in your family to do something, first in your industry to create, first in your ministry to speak the way you do...point is YOU'RE FIRST. But here's the thing looking for the blueprint can do a few things: - Delay obedience. Most of the time we know that God has put something in our hearts to create but we instead spend time trying to find someone that has done the same thing. - Cause confusion. I believe the trick of the enemy is to lead us to so many voices that we can no longer hear our own or even worse...hear God's. - Increase discouragement. Looking for a blueprint often leads us down a rabbit hole we never find a solution for when the answer that you were looking for was inside of us all along. Be encouraged today in 1 Corinthians 2:9 Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him The very thing that you are looking for is bigger than you can imagine and has yet to exist in the earth because it is on the inside of YOU. So the next time you want to look for a blueprint remember: 1. You have what it takes to fulfill what God has called you to because God is at work in you. Philippians 2:13 for it is God who is at work in you, both to desire and to work for His good pleasure. 2. You are ONE of a kind. Psalm 139:13-14 "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well" 3. God knew what He was doing when He called you to this specific thing. Jeremiah 1:5 AMP 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.

As we continue to navigate walking into the new I want to remind you of one thing God is intentional and you are RIGHT where you are supposed to be. We've talked about the opposition that we can face walking into the new and one of things can be imposter syndrome, a feeling like you've somehow stumbled upon where you are by happen stance but THAT'S A LIE. The lies of the enemy are just that LIES and today I want to remind you that everything that you have gone and been brought through by the LORD has equipped you for your new. The trials. The tribulations. The ups. The downs. The late nights. It was all apart of the process. You are here in your new by God's grace and because He wants you to be here. You have been tried, tested and now have come out pure as gold. You can rest in the work that God has done in you and continue to do. (Philippians 1:6) And so as you continue through your week I want to remind you of this: 1. You were created for this. There is no lie, feeling or belief that can change that. Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. 2.You can be confident in the work the LORD has done in you. Philippians 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus 3. Failure is not an option because God is with and within you. Psalms 46:5 God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day. When those doubts try to rise up, remember that God makes everything beautiful in its time and that includes you. Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. You are equipped. You are called. You are chosen by the most High. I love you all. Go out and be all that God has called you to be in Jesus name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiRxNe0mAwk

Hey everyone I am going to postpone the meet up for a later date but I did want to leave you guys with this assignment. I want you to confront the giant of fear you may be facing. When we take a step back to look at the thing that's scaring us we realize that it's actually not as bad as fear makes it seem. So tonight I encourage you to make a chart: On one side write the thing that is scaring you and on the other ask Holy Spirit what is one small act of obedience you can take towards that thing. Often we wait at the starting line waiting for the fear to go away when the fear breaks off when we move. I encourage you to spend time with Holy Spirit and allow Him to minister to you. Be encouraged that God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is with you and is giving you courage to move forward. Have a blessed evening.
