Part 2 of 2. Be led by the Lord, but don't go to extremes to neglect yourself and your own needs. #god #jesusislord #nottodaysatan #relationshipadvice #selfcare #truth #useyourvoice

Matthew 7:1 tells us not to judge unless we be judged. Judgment has to be rooted out of us all. We all must keep growing in this area and only judge the way God wants us to. No matter your calling or who you're called to witness to, there's always someone whose default mode is judgment. Rather than seeing the heart or the intention, they find the aspect they view as negative and pick at the words, actions, or posts. If you find you're in the wrong, repent and learn from it. But if you're not, don't allow this to cause you to stumble in what Christ has called you to do/speak what you need to speak. Often, the intentions are pure, even with those who are adamantly disagreeing with you. Keep that in mind as well. Some will talk with you. You'll either agree to disagree or insight will be gained in that. All the same, some will go to the extreme of distancing themselves from you because of the disagreement. If they walk away, let them go. Pray for them. Don't get angry or judge them. Love them. Either there is something in them or it's a ploy of Satan to cause problems. The main point is to ensure the enemy doesn't win or get a foothold in your life or calling. Christ let the disciples know about the persecution they would face. That goes for all of us who are called to do His work and who submit their lives to him. Rejection is included, even from those we love. #god #jesusislord #relationshipadvice #love #truth #nottodaysatan #loveoneanother

It's likely to happen. The majority of the time, your intentions are pure. You're saying what the Lord wants you to or you shared your testimony. Someone gets offended at you for it. Keep in mind that the issue isn't with you. The other person likely has a wound or they're believing a lie. Or it may be the enemy attempting to shut you down or cause the other person to stumble. Whatever the case may be, you can encourage them and show your heart in it. Also, keep in mind that you're not responsible for their emotions or their reaction. Just don't judge them. #god #jesusislord #relationshipadvice #relationship #love #useyourvoice #nottodaysatan #bekind #truth #loveoneanother

We are all offended by something at some point. Yes, there are things in this world that are of the enemy, so it's only natural to not agree with it. However, when someone who is of the Body speaks, posts, shares, etc, the truth is spoken the majority of the time. It could be a sermon, testimony, or a whole host of other things. When offense arises in you relating to these things, there's a reason why, and most of the time it has nothing to do with the one who spoke, shared, or posted. Chances are high that there's a wound or a lie you believed or something else that's causing offense to rise up in you. When this happens, take it before God and see what's causing this to rise up. You need to heal and get the truth you need. Took me years to see how true this is. Be blessed and receive your healing. #god #jesusislord #relationship #relationshipadvice #healing #love #bekind #nottodaysatan

Do what you need to do to find healing and become whole once again. It's going to look different for each person. But do what's best for your needs and don't allow others to take control of your healing journey. If you need a counselor/therapist, then go that route. If you need to go to another location for a little while, do so. There are deliverance ministries as well as other places to go to help you or connect you to resources beneficial to you. Take control of your process. Do what fits your needs. Don't do it a certain way because others are telling you to. You can definitely ask about their experiences if you're curious, but go the way that works. #truth #encouragement #youreworthit #seekhelp #selfless #healingfromabuse #healingfromtrauma #healing

God must be your first love. No one and nothing else can replace Him. Period. Second, people would rather have you than material possessions. Also, many on the local level are tired of being replaced by technology. While all these acts have pure intentions, the time has come when people need real, in-person connections. Soon enough these devices won't even be an option. We need to adapt to that now. A great way to show you love them is to put down your phone, go to them, and spend time, and without the devices. People don't need stuff. They need others. It's the best way to show the love of Christ for one another. #god #jesusislord #lovegod #relationshipadvice #truth #loveoneanother #relationship #putdownyourphone #qualitytime

Many out there have an understanding of this. And there's a whole lot of people who had this knowledge long before the events of the last few years. In fact, the majority of those who have been through trauma have been told this frequently, and to their own peril. By doctors. By family and friends. By those we're told we're supposed to trust. If you're putting your own safety at risk, then you're not truly protecting yourself or other people. At times, the other person/people may be putting themselves and you in harm's way and not realize it. Only God can set these ones free. Only God can convict and deliver them. #god #truth #loveoneanother #fear #safety #stayinthetruth #stayinthelight #wakeup #godhelpus #godheals

Enough said. They need to start hearing that word. #god #jesusislord #truth #relationshipadvice #loveoneanother

This is reality. We are all supposed to do with the Lord leads us to do to take care of ourselves. Sadly, many are in such a state of delusion and fear that they just go along with the crowd. The true meaning of compassion and love for one another has been lost. Taking care of yourself in the right ways, meaning the Lord's directive, is now selfishness. If you don't suck it up and do certain things, even when the Lord is telling you not to, it's selfishness. We are in a time where evil is called good and good evil. But you do not have to conform to this. Sometimes it's going to mean saying no to certain people and being kicked out. It could be costly. However, it is a lot more costly to go against God's obedience for what He wants you to do than it is to be cast out by man. obedience to God brings about a reward, and this is what makes hardship worth it. Some will criticize and say what they want about this. Just agree to disagree and move on. #god #jesusislord #obediencetogod #donotconform #love #loveoneanother

It was quite an encounter. However, it's forever important to be obedient to God, even if there are consequences to face. The reward is much better in the end. Let's continue to pray for those under the 2020 delusion. They need to be set free before it's too late.

There's a time and place for everything. That includes telling our testimony. We always mean well when sharing. However, sometimes people feel like they're not being heard when we choose to interject one of these at the wrong time. Or they leave feeling even more discouraged than before because they didn't get to finish speaking. This is why it's important to be mindful, listen to the Holy Spirit, and seek the right timing to speak on these things. Occasionally, your words aren't needed. The other person just doesn't always have the freedom to speak, and they chose you of all people. When it's done and a genuine, calm manner, you should feel honored to be the listener for once. There aren't enough of these. #god #relationshipadvice #truth #listen #loveoneanother #relationship

This will always come up at some point. We all make mistakes. We all sin. The Lord corrects. Once in a while, He uses other people above us to correct us, whether it be a parent, leader, boss, or friend. It is always good to do this in a place of peace and steadiness. When it is spoken in a highly emotional state, it causes a whole host of issues. It has about the same effect as kicking a hornet's nest. This is not a good scenario. However, it happens, often without intent. We are not perfect. When it does, repent of the wrong and quickly start over. If it has to be done at a later time, then so be it. The main thing is to ensure that anything left wrong is corrected before the enemy puts in a bunch of footholds between the people involved. Now, this does not mean you pity or coddle the person. This is just wisdom. It is up to them to receive it. We are only the messengers. The Holy Spirit does the conviction. #god #jesusislord #truth #discipline #correction #relationshipadvice #loveoneanother #tellthetruth #leadership #helpingothers #nottodaysatan

Some people are genuinely willing to help and stand with you. These ones have no motives other than standing by your side. There are others who will only step up if there is something in it for them. Be careful about this. Seek the Lord, even in your own heart. Motives are always key. Do they want to help, even if there's nothing in it for them, or will they only help to receive something from you? #beware #truth #seekfirst #wisecounsel #helpingothers #relationship #relationshipadvice

A complex yet necessary truth.

#deception #lovedones #pain #rejection #truthhurts #relationship Additional insight from February 28, 2023: if they don't listen to you, then you have no responsibility for the consequences. You did your part in attempting to warn them as well as in telling the truth. Release them unto the Lord.

There's always a reason. It isn't always rooted in distrust. However, they won't come if they are labeled or feel as though they aren't believed when they speak up, though they are speaking the truth. This often hinders communication and puts a foothold in a relationship. There is a solution. It's simply a matter of seeking the Lord for it. #god #jesusislord #truth #relationshipadvice #relationship #loveoneanother #communication

From May 3, 2023. A reminder of this is needed with what is coming down the pike. There are two parts to this, and it's important in this hour to find the right alliances. Use your discernment and seek out the lone wolves within the Body (the genuine followers, not those in sheep's clothing). #god #jesusislord #lonewolf #relationship #love #alliance

From May 3, 2023. There are still a few who need to hear this. Reposting was necessary. God has allies for you. For some, someone has come alongside you, saying they stand with you. However, when you truly need them to stand with you in the fighting, they shrink back. They claim you need to stand on your own. If this word is for you, you already have been standing on your own. Therefore, it's not the truth at all. Instead, it stems from their own insecurity. And it's not about them. First off, forgive them. Also, don't allow the enemy to kick you down on this. The Lord won't allow it forever. If it continues, He will send someone else willing, even if it means giving up their own life for a little while. The Lord sees that you have been standing on your own the entire time. You've had no choice. They just don't see it. #god #jesusislord #layyourlife down #relationship #love #lonewolf

Originally from May 3, 2023. A reminder is needed. There are some things coming upon us soon, and certain ones really need to find their tribe while they can. Part two. It's important to align with others that are like-minded in this hour. The lone wolves aren't going to find it within the Body as a whole. Y'all know this already. You've felt like you have always stood alone because none of these will lay down their life for you as you have frequently done for them. If you're a lone wolf, chances are you have a higher calling than you realize. Which is why the enemy wants to take you out. Take your stand. Find another lone wolf. #god #godwins #jesusislord #relationship #helpingothers #love
