Embrace the Process, as You Embrace God

Hey Hey 

Welcome back to a New Thing Blog!

I don't know about you, but the closer I get to what God promised me, the more the enemy starts to plot and scheme. But I'm grateful that God is showing me how to stay at His feet and believe His word and not what the enemy is whispering. 

Which brings me to my next topic, "Embrace the Process, as You Embrace God. When God gave me this I said Lord this is not only on time for teaching, but this is right on time for me. One thing about God's word and the revelation that comes with it is, it hits your heart first. As I was preparing and studying I got so emotional about how mindful our God is to us, and to know His promises are yes and amen it made me want to continue to fight to see what the end is going to be. It gives me so much peace just to know every day I wake up I'm counted in the number. 

Embrace the Process, as You Embrace God, I was sitting in church when God gave me this title and immediately began to write down what He began to speak to me. 

There's two definitions that I found the first says, 

embrace: accept or support (a belief, theory, or change) willingly and enthusiastically. 

Immediately I was blessed. If embrace doesn't fit the exact format to what God wants us to do when it comes to following Him. 

1. He wants us to believe

2. Know that change will happen

3. Do it with joy

The second defintion is, to hold someone closely in one's arm especially as a sign of affection. God wants to hold us in His arms. Jesssus I can feel my help typing this. God is so amazing He wants us to feel His presence as we go through to know that we are not alone. 

God didn't stop me there, but had me look up process. 

Process: a SERIES of actions or steps taken in order to achieve a particular end. 

It's not something that happens quickly. I said Father I hear you. In all this you want us to hold on to your love as you walk us through the series of steps that you have laid out for us. My God! That's the type of God we serve. He soooooo mindful to break things down for our understanding. 

Embrace in Hebrews means to lie down or to put your entire weight on something. 

Process in Hebrews means to adapt. 

Embracing change with God is not always easy, but can I tell you it is worth it. When God is taking you through a new season that you never saw coming you have to trust Him with every step. 

Ecclesiastes 11:5 Just as you don't know the path of the wind or how bones develop int he womb of a pregnant woman, so also you don't know the work of God who makes everything. 

We don't know how God is going to do a thing but we have to trust His plan and know that His plan is the best plan.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts I think towards you, says the Lord thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 

Ask yourself the question, "Do I trust the plan that God has for my life, or do I trust me more."

Ask yourself, who has let you down, you or God?

Joshua 1:5 No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live, I will be with you as I was with Moses I will not leave you or abandon you. 

God is not like man where He will leave us without instructions, strategy or comfort. Whatever we need God for He will be there. Some of us have been abandoned by family, friends, coworkers, jobs, partners and more and we compare their actions to God instead of  letting God handle our situation. 

God is bigger than what we've bee through we just have to allow Him in to help us through it all. 

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust the Lord with all your heart and do not rely on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him he will make your path straight. 

As you embrace your process and follow God in it all He says don't lean on what you know and what you are use to but to trust him in it all and through it all. 

The process with God is worth it, it keeps you at His feet and not at your own. 

Change is something that constantly happens when you walk with the Father, I encourage you to keep taking the steps with Him 

Proverbs 16:9 A Person's heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps. 

Allow God to keep guiding your steps, and watch Him change things for you, keep embracing the process as God keeps embracing you.

Stay encouraged, I love you but God loves you more.
