Woman RESOLVE!
Woman, there are so many invitations headed your way! Invitations to remain in what wounded you instead of walk away and be healed! Invitations to get to the bag by any means necessary instead of being prolonged by trusting the process of God ! Invitations to drink the moonshine over the milkshake. Invitations to be entertained by the world’s standard instead of embracing the wholesomeness of God and fellowshipping with others whose hearts have been captured by God!
Make no mistake, the Invitation is coming for your, “Yes Lord.” It is coming for those intimate prayers and promises that only you and God know. “Lord, if you get me out of this situation, I promise I won’t do this or that.” Or perhaps, “Lord, if you allow this door to open, I promise this or that.” A Yes to God is like no other affirming statement that you will ever say to a human being! You are saying “Yes” to the One who knows exactly how many times you will break that Vow or keep it!
Are you Ready? Are you ready to RESOLVE? Are you ready to have a made up mind about following God all the way? Are you ready to forsake all others? Are you ready to swim against the tide? Are you ready to be penalized for being peculiar? Are you ready for the Holy Roller Title? Are you ready for the infamous, “It doesn’t take all that!” Unless they were in the room, and knew 101% of what God delivered you from- How would they know how much it took for you to reach God’s heart? Do not skip over “101%”, it was not an oversight. Do we fully understand the dangers seen and unseen that God spared us from! Deliverance can go far beyond our physical acts! What lies in those thoughts? Is unbelief on a microphone in our minds, but never uttered from our mouths? God continues to be an amazing Deliverer! One who will allow fire to encamp you but you not smell like smoke! Jesus!
Are you ready to take the hits for your RESOLVE? It is an amazing liberty that comes with resolving in your heart that for God I live and for God I die! There is also a place of reckoning. This place in God will often cause you to be misunderstood. It will many times have your motives questioned. It will reduce your invitations over time. It will stretch you; break you; mold you, and perfect you!
Woman, this RESOLVE is never ever on clearance; yet it is available for every Sister willing to pay the price! However, this cannot be purchased with your black card. This Invitation does not come with a VIP Section. Your pedigree nor connections will get you this invitation! It is the Most Sacred Invitation you will ever receive! This one is not mailed or wired. There will be no need to save it on your calendar, because it will be stamped on your heart upon acceptance! There will be no need to hunt for the right outfit for the next conference, because He adorns you in the perfect garments that will never dry rot or shrink!
There is a Greek Word for Resolve (bouleuo)- to consider, decide, take counsel, deliberate. Luke 14:31, so effectively expresses the weight of the definition, “Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand?” The deliberation and decision are intense, because when that visual comes- it is what you have resolved in your heart is what will help you stand! How much Word? How much History with God do you have to progress and not retreat?
Woman, way before you evolve, a RESOLVE is needed! If not, you will find yourself line dancing with the world on Saturday and attempting to raise up Holy hands on Sunday! I assure you, there is an acceptable worship for a Holy & Righteous God, just as there is one that does not bring Him Honor.
Woman RESOLVE beyond the noise, hype, and emotion! Your very Spiritual Life depends upon it! If an avalanche hit your life in the form of trials and tribulations, do you have enough RESOLVE in you to Stand; enough persistence to Go; and enough indebtedness to God to continue to Show up saying, “Yes Lord?”
Divine Work & Pray:
Work:
Jot down in your Divine Design Journal what it has taken or will take for you to get to a resolve in God. What have you chosen to walk away from that at first, you did not see it as an issue, but as you pursued God more, you began to learn what truly honors and dishonors Him?
Pray:
***Write out a prayer concerning God giving and perfecting your resolve for Him and His Ways. Pray for your circle of influence and the impact that you will have on each other to further your Spiritual Growth.
