Episode 7- If You’re Willing, He Will Move Feb 13, 2019

Show notes

What does willingness to God look like?
That there is a level of willingness that God can’t help but breathe on. Willingness is what distinguishes the committed from the uncommitted. If we are wild enough to be willing vessels, then He will be wild enough to expose His heart through us.

Episode 6- Bringing Balance To Tension Feb 06, 2019

Show notes

How do you navigate rejection from jobs where your passions would have been on display?
Living in a place of peace comes more from surrendering to childlike faith than reasoning. Logic will tell you to use your skills and passions to strive for success, but you have to trust God that in rejection, even rejection from the things that appear to be good, you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

How can you bring balance to tension?
You don’t need to know the full picture, but you can rest by stewarding what you have really well (not in a place of striving) and be hopeful that God will open the right doors at the right time. God is faithful to bring His desire for you and when He does, He will put grace behind it.

How can you steward what you have?
What do you have to steward?
What are the ordinary moments in your day that God wants to mark as holy?
Who is a person in your everyday life that you’ve taken for granted? How can you extravagantly bless or encourage them?

How can you dream without getting caught up in disappointment?
Dream from a place of rest.
Ask God to talk to you about your dreams.
Are your dreams attached to what is in your hands RIGHT NOW?

When you feel stuck in your job, don’t undervalue God’s faithfulness.
When you’re serving someone else’s mission, ask God to give you a passion for them and your work for them.
When doors close, trust that He will open the right door at the right time.

Episode 5- Showing Up Anyways Jan 30, 2019

Show notes

When life feels unfulfilling, seek your true identity. God will reveal your purpose by exposing your strengths.

God’s purpose for your life does not include the opinion of man being superior to your purpose; His purpose for your life includes finding your identity in Him and surrendering everything else, knowing that He will bring your strengths to the surface and cause them to shine out from your being.

How can you determine your next step in life? Search for striving.Purpose is not discovered in striving but in the peace of knowing and trusting how God has designed you as an individual. You are made intentionally by God for His purpose; your dreams, your personality, your frustrations, your quirks, your strengths- every single thing that you carry is so intentional for what God created you for. Ask God where to go with what He’s given you and your actions will not be made in vain.

When you surrender your life to your purpose in God, you are transformed by His deepest desire for your life. As you trust Him, He will begin to download new joy, creativity, strategy, knowledge, and hope into your life. You will experience more with God then you ever will without Him.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 NIV

If you’re struggling to see your value, send out a text asking 10 people what your top three qualities are. Invite trustworthy people to speak to your strengths and then pursue those things. People who know God’s love can help give you a clear perspective of your strengths, especially if you are someone whose strengths are being dimmed or exploited. Once you hear from people who see you the way God sees you, begin to surrender your dreams and desires to God and ask him to lead you in your new identity.

Sometimes, an invitation from God can lead us to obsess over the fear of failure. You don’t have to know the answers, you don’t have to be eloquent and graceful and perfect; just show up. Come to God with open arms and surrender it all; your fears, your worry, your expectations. Say “thank you” for the invitation to a purpose filled life and allow yourself to be unraveled and changed by His gentle majesty.

Episode 4- Imagining With God Jan 23, 2019

Show notes

One of the most significant ways that you can imagine with God is in a secret and hidden place. That means a time and place that you are learning how to hear the voice of your Shepard. It’s in the secret place that you let the mysteries of the Bible and the trials of triumphs of life find purpose and meaning.

It’s in the deep secret place with Jesus where God’s imagination lies and Satan’s imagination dies. Satan’s imagination is anxiety, fear, guilt, shame, poverty, and despair. God’s imagination is free, pure, vibrant, refreshing, creative beyond measure, and all-consuming. When you’re in the secret place, you are so in tune with His voice and truth that Satan’s imagination can’t take any shape. In the secret place, you are safe as Abba’s child.

It’s very vulnerable. It's a growing pain. You have pressed into that feeling of vulnerability and try to discover what is it that is holding you back from peacefully being with your creator. Comfortability and peace are not the same things; you may need to press into the discomfort (especially if the vulnerability is uncomfortable for you) in order to meet peace. It’s an honor when you learn how to be silent with Jesus because you are giving Him space to talk.

When you don’t know what to pray, just say “Thank you.” The Message says, “‘Thank you’ is the password into His presence.”

Stepping into the imagination with God through the Word of God invites creativity in the midst of burnout and routine. It speaks life where there is death and creation when there is blank space.

God’s Word will always bring you to a place of rest, peace, and creativity. It will take you into a new thought process. Every time his Word is the missing piece.

Don’t be discouraged if you’re losing focus or feeling a little scattered while ready The Bible. When you read the Word, you begin meditating on the glory of it. And many times, the glory of the Word will reveal itself in future trials.

Prophetic words are amazing, the community is crucial, prayer is powerful, but we have got to wash our minds with the one thing that was created to wash us: The Word. The only thing that renews our mind and sanctifies our imagination is by washing our minds with the Word of God.

Episode 3- He’s Switching Your Worry Off Jan 16, 2019

Show notes

You do not have to go through heartbreak, heartache, and trauma to create valuable art. Though, God never wastes anything and can turn a horrible mess into a masterpiece for His glory. He is also so eager to create something beautiful out of tragedy.

Each time we sit down to create anything, perhaps a new strategy for business, a financial algorithm, a piece of art, or a story, we are partnering with the Creator God. As we do this,we are living out our creative call, reliving Genesis 1:1 over and over again, tapping into the potential for life and expression. Though what is set before us may be empty and void, so also the Holy Spirit hovered over the blank canvas of our world, waiting for God to speak so He could create. When you partner with God, you are reliving the testimony of creation because you too, are hovering over the potential of what God is going to allow you to create with him.

Use your imagination for good and don’t partner with the enemy. The enemy wants to take your imagination on a rollercoaster ride, but God says “No! Your imagination is your greatest weapon and it’s meant to be used for me.”

When Jesus declares your identity over you, He exchanges your brokenness for his wholeness. In His wholeness is a skillset of victory found in His word, prayer, worship, and surrender.

Episode 2- The Girl Before The Company Jan 02, 2019

Show notes

A Command vs. An Invitation
When people say, “God told me to do this,” it is important to ask yourself if God told you or if He invited you. When he invites you, it requires a partnership of faith; you and God- together. The ‘yes’ to an invitation with God is a risk and a choice; It will be a commitment and a sacrifice- you are choosing to go where He wants you to go. If you choose not to accept his invitation, He will invite someone else because it is his WILL.
Surrendering Your Investment

“I don’t want to hold down anything from the past in an attempt to control the future.” - Esther Marie
God waits for you in your future. You don’t need to carry the things from your past- the corpses or the victories. God is always ready to do something new. If God wants something that he did 10 years ago to come back around, He’ll do it in a new way!
Overcoming The Fear of Rejection:
“The world rejected God so you could be approved by heaven.” - Ebie Hepworth.

The fear of rejection occurs when we put our value and validation in how someone else sees us. Your identity should be rooted in Heaven’s approval, not man’s. You don’t have to strive. Heaven looks down on you and says you are enough. You are validated by the voice of God an no one else.

Overcoming People-Pleasing:

When you attach value to other people- either in knowing them or in letting them dictate your choices- you are giving them the authority to tell you who you are. You are letting someone else be the final voice of authority in your life. The only voice that should tell you who you are is God’s voice. Humans are not able to assume purpose for each other. That’s not a person’s place of authority and to give them that place would be abuse. When you’ve started people-pleasing, you need a greater revelation who God is. Because when you start looking to someone else to tell you who you are and what you’re worth, you don’t have a revelation of who God is as a father, as your provider, and as your life giver.

In moving forward and overcoming people pleasing, distinguish the people that you’ve let determine your life choices and then set healthy boundaries with honor. Be intentional with your relationships and take inventory of the people that are feeding your soul. You also need to be able to recognize the voice of shame in the choices you make; anytime that you attach your ability and your performance to your worth, that is shame.
