November is flying by, can you believe that 2022 is almost over !? It has been a year but I can honestly say it's been rewarding these last six months. I am enjoying this journey with God and daily developing a deeper relationship with God.
But let me share how God is just right on time with how He brings the word for all of our understanding. On Friday morning I was home from work due to a snow storm and was just laying on my bed scrolling on TikTok and the Lord told me to go pray.
As I gathered in my prayer closet I sat against the wall and began to thank God for EVERYTHING and the more I prayed the closer I began to move towards the wall in front of me until I was curled up in the corner praying in my heavenly language and telling God everything.
At that moment the Lord gave me a vision of me literally curled up in His ear, and He said this is how close you are to me daughter. I hear your prayers, your desires and your heart, stay right here. I kept praying and just embraced the love of the Father until I was released from prayer. As I got out I just felt God's presence so heavy on me still I went into worship and and sent my prayer sister a voice memo, as we shared what God was doing He dropped this, "isn't great traveling with me, your just a pilgrim passing by doing the work I sent you to do."
Maaaaan Jesus is sooooo amazing I absolutely love Him.
Traveling With Jesus
As I began to study I looked up the word pilgrim, and pilgrim is a person who journeys to a sacred place, for religious reasons, another definition said one to journey to foreign lands.
In greek it means: worshipper.
I said God I see why you call us pilgrims, because we are worshippers following you
I Peter 2:11-12 Beloved, I beg you as sojourner and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against your soul, having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evil doers, they may by you good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.
As believers we are called to stand out. Earth is not our home, but there's some destinations and places that we have to go through while we are here.
I am big on understanding words so I looked up traveling too. Traveling means going or being transported from place to place. When you are walking with the Father you are going to be moving constantly with Him. God won't let you get comfortable in a thing when He is trying to move you into a better thing, or a new thing. My Bishop said once, if you stay ready you don't have to get ready, you have to be ready when you are walking with God.
Isaiah 43:18-19. The Lord ministered this entire chapter to me. He said I need you to get an understanding why you travel with me, even through dark days, dark moments, and rough time I have purpose for it all.
"Do not remember the former things, nor ponder of the things of the past. Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing, Now it will spring forth, Will you not be aware of it? I will even put a road in the wilderness and a river in the desert."
God is saying as you traveling this journey of life with me don't remember the life you had without me, nor allow your mind to ponder on the things of the past. Ponder means thinking about something carefully, especially before making a decision or reaching a conclusion. The enemy would love to keep you on your past so you can see what you could have done differently, but God says to fix your mind on things above, not on things that are on earth which have only temporal value -Colossians 3:2. God is moving us forward! Then He says listen carefully. The Lord had me to look up the word carefully and carefully means in a way that deliberately avoids harm or errors; cautiously. God is so good! He wants us to tune our ears to him with great care and no harm, because He wants us to be ready to catch the new thing that He has for us. How do I know that? Vs 9 Now it will spring forth, will you not be aware of it? If our mind is pondering on what has happen we will miss the new thing that God is doing now! God says I'll even put roads in the wilderness and a river in the desert. He's reminding us that He can do the impossible!
With man it's impossible but with God all things are possible.- Mark 10:27
Trust that traveling with God is not in vain, but its a journey like never before because you have the creator Yahweh guiding you! Through your travels, know God directs every move when you stay connected to His will, His way and His word. Are you packed and ready? Yahweh is waiting on you!
I pray that this blessed you as God blessed me with it. Know that I love you, but God loves you so much more, until next time!
