Wait & Watch God Move

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23 (NIV) Hope, in Hebrew is tikvah. This is no ordinary hope. When we have tikvah, we take the posture of one who waits with an expectation for God to move on our behalf. Most importantly, it means that our disposition models what we believe. Hope maintains optimism and does not entertain pessimistic thoughts. When we have hope we hold onto the promise without wavering. When you expect something, you get in position to receive it and prepare for its arrival. So, tell disappointment you will not be moved or shaken. Tell doubt to take a long walk. Then wait and watch God move. He’s brought us thus far and He will not leave us now. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

If I say, “My foot has slipped,” Your compassion and lovingkindness, O Lord, will hold me up. When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, your comforts delight me. Psalm 94:18-19 (Amp.) When we fixate on a concern it can evolve into worry and take a life of its own. Often when you don’t see a way out or have an immediate answer it can give birth to a series of anxious thoughts. When we create scenarios in our mind and imagine all that can possibly go wrong, it feeds these thoughts and adds fuel to the fire. Let your faith subdue all your fears and trust that God will respond to all of your cares. Press Forward! ADaubon

Posture of Hope

For God alone my soul waits in silence and quietly submits to Him, for my hope is from Him. Psalm 62:5 (Amp.) There is a posture of hope. One must wait in silence for God. Sometimes it is hard to wait – let alone in silence. Waiting without complaining can be difficult. Waiting without uttering negative thoughts of doubt can be equally hard. It may be a challenge to silence the anxious thoughts and emotions that try to consume us when we are in waiting mode. Submit and surrender your concerns, thoughts, emotions, desire and will to Him. Trust that He will sustain you, light your path and take care of all that concerns you. When we truly place all our hope in Him, we let go, let God and find rest. Have confidence that your hope is in God alone and He will not fail you. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Let it Go!

Good sense and discretion make a man slow to anger, and it is his honor and glory to overlook a transgression or an offense [without seeking revenge and harboring resentment]. Prov. 19:11 (Amp.) Mental rehearsal and constant reflections on offenses are psychological and emotional exercises that stifles personal growth. It is for your own benefit that you do not allow transgressions to taunt, haunt or hinder you. Evict the spirit of offense and free that space for more positive, productive and purposeful energy. Press forward! ADaubon

Work In Progress

I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return]. Phil. 1:6 (Amp.) As you press forward into all that is in store for you this year don’t give up on your dreams or doubt your destiny. All that God has started in your life will come to pass. Delayal does not mean denial. Postponement does not mean it wasn’t meant to be. Don’t let obstacles discourage you. Use them as steppingstones, not burdens to carry. Whatever comes your way to derail you will only develop you. Keep pressing, even when it’s hard. Keep stepping forward, even when faced with opposing forces. Stay strong and remember God’s plans for you are for a divine purpose and is far greater than you can ever imagine. Keep the faith and know that He is not done with you yet. All that He has purposed for you He will see it through. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Eph. 4:22-24 (NIV) Never forget who you are, but don’t be bound by things that don’t define you any longer. Don’t be afraid to let go of beliefs, actions, thoughts, dispositions, people, places and things that are not part of what and who you want to be going forward. Most importantly don’t remain committed to anything or anyone that hinders you from living the way God desires. Don’t hold onto anything, within you or in your life, that is working in direct opposition to His will for you. This year be intentional about being the best version of yourself that you deserve and desire. Make room for and embrace all that is new. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Don’t allow doubt to hold you back. Silence the self-negative talk that tells you that you are not good enough. The Christ in you will elevate you to another level. Don’t be afraid of more. Don’t shy away from better. Don’t run away from purpose. Press forward! ADaubon

2025 – Faith Arise!

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:19 (NIV) Get ready for all that God has in store. It’s time to get in position for more. Increase is coming your way. All that you’ve been waiting for is being released without delay. God’s about to open up the storehouse and pour out a blessing towards you. You’ll receive the reward for all that you’ve been through. You’ve endured a lot, now it’s time to recover all that was lost. Get your mustard seed faith out and tell the mountain who’s the boss. Double for your trouble and triple for your pain. It’s time for restoration, in Jesus’ name. Take the stance of trusting God and declare victory. Now walk in your Godly authority. With confidence welcome 2025. It’s a new day, let your faith arise! Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Fresh Start

So, as God’s own chosen people, who are holy [set apart, sanctified for His purpose] and well-beloved [by God Himself], put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience [which has the power to endure whatever injustice or unpleasantness comes, with good temper]; bearing graciously with one another, and willingly forgiving each other if one has a cause for complaint against another; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so should you forgive. Col 3:12-13 (Amp.) As you press towards 2025, decide to leave all offenses behind. Let go of all hurtful acts that consume your mind. Be kind and gentle to yourself and others by choosing to be free. Bitterness will hinder you from being all God wants you to be. Cut the ties from the things from the past that keeps you from having peace. The time is now for it all to be released. Wipe the slate clean and stop keeping score. Your mind and your spirit deserve so much more. Remember you’ve been set apart to not harbor unforgiveness in your heart. It’s time for a fresh start. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
