Day thirty-eight: Individuality (Daddy and His Word)

I feel obliged to entreat you to seek individuality in God. 

You are a part of Jesus' Body.
But, you are single and you have your uniqueness. 

Do not attempt to use others as the benchmark for defining yourself and for determining how your life story should be.
Beloved, use the Word of God.

I have come to realise that just as there is One Body with many parts, so does the Word of God define our individuality, although we are a part of God's Body.

There is a version of the Amplified Bible which says in Ephesians 6 that Holy Spirit wields the Word of God. When we read Scripture, Holy Spirit ministers to us according to our season and what we need to know in that moment. That explains why another will read the same Scripture and be ministered to differently. Mind you, there is no contradiction in God's Word. The Word of God IS our standard and although HE ministers to us individually, He does not contradict Himself. 

Darling, learn to know the Word of God for yourself.
All you need do is to start...even if they are baby steps, they are better than nothing

As you know God's Word, you grow in the knowledge of yourself.
The Word of God Is our life's manual.
But, I have learnt that when we search Scripture, by God's Grace, we find in Scripture a portion that describes who we are and our life's purpose. 
Don't forget: we are the Body of Christ.
We are Jesus Christ on Earth. 
It is the spirit that makes man and once we have the Spirit of Jesus Christ in our Bodies, then we are Jesus Christ.

Beloved.

There is a portion of Scripture in Isaiah which resonates with my spirit and gives me an indication of what my life's purpose is. What I see happening is that the Word of Knowledge I have received from ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ are in conformity with what I believe that particular chapter of the Book of Isaiah says about me.

Where in Scripture do you find yourself?

Which portion of Scripture can you say Holy Spirit really taught you or ministered to you by?
Or do you think this is impossible and happens to only a select-few?
This is for all of us, baby. 
For all of us who believe.

I pray you believe.
Amen.

Day eleven: The Authentic Hgh

This morning, I was pondering over a video Tabitha Brown posted on instagram  a few days ago ( link here ). In her video, she was talking about how people were always sending her Dms to tone down on how much she speaks of Jesus in all her work. She said a lot of meaningful things which you will find in the link I have attached.  My Quiet Time last week Friday was sourced from Timothy 4:8 which reads " For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things,  holding promise for both the present life  and the life to come. " It was a super "Aha" moment for me because I found a scripture from the Bible which assures me that I will profit a great deal from my resolve, to live for God, both in the now life and in the life which is to come. How cool is that?!  Now that the premise for today's post has been laid, let me tell you what the authentic high is all about. This is going to get personal... it is the only way I can properly relay the mes

February 17th - ...but We used to be friends....

Have you ever felt tears well up in your chest so hard and heavy that you know you could easily burst into heaves of tears in any given moment? I had one of such moments today.  The first reading at Mass today was from the Book of Jeremiah 17:5-8 and there is a portion that talks about how accursed is the man who puts his trust in man and in his own strength. It talks about the dryness such a man encounters and how this man will never see prosperity.  I was convicted by this Scripture because it showed so clearly that the condition of my heart has been like one of such a man. Why am I saying so? Aside getting my second degree, I am trying to be intentional about my Spiritual growth and about music ministry in church. Basically, I am trying to be intentional about becoming.  ("Becoming" is the expression I give to my quest to attain my fullest expression as His daughter).  ...but that has just been the problem... "I am trying to become"  Having th

Go With God

When I started Sharing Life, my intention was to put out what I knew Holy Spirit was teaching me. This was what He asked me to do. It wasn't to parade myself as an all-figured-out girl who was on her way to becoming a preacher.  It was a journey of life I was learning and one which I had received the go-ahead to let the world in on.  Somewhere on this road, I was seen as a "Woman of God" and put on this high and mighty pedestal which wasn't me.  And you know what, in such moments, it is so easy to get carried away by the accolades of men to the point where you lose sight of your journey, where you are and decide to serve the expectations of others... thereby neglecting your own journey and growth.  After taking a very long break from active writing, I have on numerous occasions attempted to start writing again but the fear of being put on that pedestal has stopped me so many times.  I am a child of God. I am a girl on a journey. I don't have it all fig
