Take that Step!

The Manna Chef

Sisters, how many of you have been sitting by, stuck for years, “waiting on God”?  Now, I’m not talking about those Sisters who really have been seeking God and are actually waiting for His command to pursue.  I’m talking to those Sisters who have gotten comfortable sitting idly on the sidelines, reciting that spiritual-sounding adage:  I’m waiting on God.  It’s a familiar response, even when it’s not actually true.  Some of us have been sitting and waiting for so long that our spiritual muscles are experiencing atrophy.  They have lost their power from a lack of use! 

Waiting on God does not mean you sit and do nothing.  Waiting on God is active.  That means you are praying and praising.  You are asking, seeking, and knocking.  You are walking in faith.  You are reading and studying His Word.  You are feeding your spirit man so that your faith will increase to allow you to do what God has called you to do.  Waiting is active.  And it requires some initiative from you.

I Know Where My Help Comes From

The Manna Chef

Sisters, I simply want to encourage your hearts today and remind you that not only does God see you, He cares deeply about you.  I woke up hearing the song, “My Help,” (by the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir) in my spirit.  I’ve been singing it since all morning.  It’s an incredible reminder of just how much God really does take care of us.  He’s left nothing to chance concerning you.  Do you really know that?  He is taking care of you every moment of every single day.   I sometimes can’t wrap my head around that.  There are almost 8 billion people in this world right now, and God makes it a point to check on me all day long?  That’s so amazing!  Who wouldn’t serve a God like that?  He is right there with you throughout each day, no matter how it seems in those dark moments.  Whenever you find yourself wondering how you are going to make it in these perilous times, I want you to read Psalm 121(NKJV):

1I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
