Day 1

Scriptures: Genesis 6:5-6, Isaiah 55:9

You’ve been studying God’s Word, and you’ve turned towards Him—but how do you ensure you don’t miss your moment? How do you become a woman who moves when God moves? You can use this series as your runway like a plane that proceeds down a runway with greater and greater momentum until it begins to soar towards its destination. Together, we will get into a position as we become women who move when God moves. When you decide to SHIFT, you won’t miss another moment or blessing He has for you. 

My husband and I recently went on a long-awaited vacation. When we arrived at the resort, the view was not the one we had reserved. I called the front desk, and they quickly arrived with new keys to escort us to a new room on the other side of the resort. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in because we had been upgraded! We had to make a shift, and when we did, we discovered it was better on the other side. 

To shift means to move or cause to move from one place to another. When God shifts you, you’ve got to be ready to move. There’s better on the other side. 

How do you know if you are ready for the SHIFT? You’re ready if you’ve ever had a moment when you looked around and didn’t care for the view. You’re ready if you invested a lot of time and energy in something and the result was not what you expected. You’re ready if you know there’s more to your current view than you’ve seen. 

Consider this: you’re not the only one who has wanted a better view. We’re talking about you, but did you know this has been God’s desire? 

“Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth…and He was grieved in his heart.” Genesis 6:5-6

God viewed His creation, and it was not what He wanted. We can learn a lot about how to SHIFT by looking at what God did next. 

Instead of settling for what was, God had a different THOUGHT about it. He had a different vision for humanity. He was grieved but not deterred. He didn’t give up. Even if you thought about giving up, and even if you’ve felt it’s over, I want you to know God can see your view. His thought about your view is higher than your thoughts about it. 

“For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:9

There’s another side to your view. God has better for you. God is looking at your view, and His thought is that there’s new life in it. His thought is about all the new places and spaces He’s sending you. His thought is about all the people He’s sending your way to help you succeed. 

Today’s Affirmation:

Your view is expanding. God shows you more as your heart opens to His thoughts about your life. His thoughts fill your experience with hope, belief, and discovery. You see positive opportunities through this shift you didn’t see before. God is the One you’re relying on, and you realize today that He is your solid, firm foundation. You are secure. 

Question of the Day:

What “view” are you going to surrender to God today?

Day 2

Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 5:21, Mark 16:19, Psalms 30:11

God has a different thought about your view, and He already knows there’s better on the other side. His thought is not God’s first time improving views by shifting people. God thinks about your better when He looks at you because He sees you through Jesus, the Anointed One. 

“For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

When God looked at humanity, He had a different thought about it. He didn’t give up; he thought about a new solution. What was it? His thought was JESUS. 

Jesus was the SHIFT needed to bring you and every view you would ever have into alignment with His will. God released His divine Son, Jesus, into this world through a SHIFT from heaven to Mary’s womb. Jesus was the SHIFT that makes a different view possible for you today. 

Throughout His assignment, Jesus remained faithful because He knew there was purpose in His process. When Jesus died, He was resurrected, and Mark 16:19 says: 

“When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand.” 

There was better on the other side for Jesus. He was moved from one place to a better place because of a SHIFT of God! He moved when God moved, step by step, and elevated to this better place. When God moves, we move — just like that! 

As you look at your view, I want to acknowledge you may have been in this process for what feels like a long time. However, be encouraged because it is not in vain. There is a purpose in your process. There is another side to disappointment, a discouragement, a letdown, or loss. God intends to shift you today, giving you JOY. 

“You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy…” Psalm 30:11

David was rejoicing in the scripture above because God had shifted him. God shifts us to be in alignment with Christ. When we are in Christ, we are made right with God. There is a reason to rejoice in this because we can see that just as God’s pattern was applied to David’s life, and as God’s pattern was applied to Jesus’s life, God’s pattern is also applied to our lives. You’re about to be moved from one place to another because of a SHIFT, and God’s pattern will produce purpose in your life. 

Today’s Affirmation:

A deeper joy is being planted in your heart today, and you feel good because of it. You have a keen insight there is more to this view, and as the Son shines His light on your life, you are changing —transforming even—into the image of Christ. You smile differently, you shine differently, your glow lights up rooms. You are becoming a woman who moves when God moves. 

Daily Question of the Day:

Are you willing to trade in your old view for a new one, even if it requires God to change you?

Day 3

Scriptures: Matthew 26:26, Matthew 14:13-21

I grew up with a mother who loved to sew. She would sew gorgeous Easter dresses for my sister and me, and, of course, we would always match! Our favorite part of the process was going to the fabric store to pick out the pattern. The pattern was a big sheet of transparent paper called “dot paper” that she would lay over the fabric. The pattern ensured that she derived the right outcome from her effort every single time. 

As you relax in the knowledge that the SHIFT is up to God and through your words and faith, you’ll see your process create purpose in your life. Let’s examine God’s pattern. 

God works in patterns, and a pattern is a repeated design. Just like the pattern at the fabric store showcased a preview of the dress I would eventually wear, God’s pattern in your life showcases a preview of the purpose He is eventually bringing you into. As you understand how God overlays His pattern over your life, you’ll begin to see the purpose in your process. You’ll understand how He’s using this pattern to ensure the right outcome is from the process you’ve been going through. 

Matthew 26:26 provides us with insight into God’s pattern: 

“As they were eating, Jesus took some bread and blessed it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take this and eat it, for this is my body.” 

Jesus’s actions show us God’s pattern. He took the bread, and then He blessed the bread. He then broke the bread, and, lastly, He used the bread. Took, blessed, broken, used. 

How do we know this is God’s pattern? We can see it repeated throughout the Bible in many places in scripture. One of the most prominent places was in the Miracle of the Feeding of the 5,000, when Jesus fed 5,000 people with five fish and two loaves of bread. 

“Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.” Matthew 14:19

This pattern is not a coincidence. It’s an intentional placement in scripture by God to give us insight into how He works. We can even see it in the life of Jesus. God the Father took Jesus from His place in heaven and placed Him as a baby in Mary’s womb. He blessed Jesus with gifts and purpose. He then allowed Jesus to be broken on the cross, and, through His death, God used Jesus to give us eternal life. 

No matter what your process looks like, know this. God is with you, accompanying you as you take every step. This can reassure us through the last revelation in Matthew 26:26. After all, the bread was in Jesus’s hands while it went through the process. There is no better place to be today than in His hands. 

Today’s Affirmation:

You are reassured today, standing firmly in God’s pattern. You embrace peace, and you relax in His hands. Everything you need in unexpected ways and from unseen places is provided. God has His arms wrapped around you, and you are sure. You are enriched. You are nourished. You are replenished. You are refreshed! You are purposed in His pattern. 

Question of the Day:

Where do you see evidence of God’s pattern in your life?

Day 4

Scriptures: Jeremiah 1:5, 1 Peter 2:9, Philippians 4:7, Luke 6:38, Isaiah 40:31

I sewed doll clothes for my dolls, sitting next to my mother with my little pink sewing machine. I would make shirts and skirts, but they weren’t perfect. The little clothes had sewing mistakes because I didn’t have a pattern. I just tried my best and proudly dressed my dolls in my creations. 

We may make mistakes, but one thing we know about God is that He doesn’t make any mistakes. If we know God works in patterns, there is another major “aha” moment in The SHIFT series for you, and it’s that your life isn’t accidental. God not only had thought about humankind and Jesus, but He also had a thought about you before you were even born. 

“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.” Jeremiah 1:5

God makes no mistakes in His divine pattern for our lives. 

As Jesus sat with His disciples, the Bible is intentional in sharing the steps Jesus took when symbolically instructing the disciples on why they were all there. He used these steps to reveal their purpose to them. Who else is interested in a preview of your purpose? Let’s explore this concept more deeply together: 

God’s Intentional Pattern for Our Lives

Step One: Jesus TOOK the bread

The situations you used to be in, you aren’t in anymore. The ways you used to think, you don’t think anymore. As you keep coming to God, He strategically takes you out of the dark situations and even out of foolish situations where you may have found yourself and has been shifting you to a better place ever since. 

“…for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.” 1 Peter 2:9 

Step Two: Jesus BLESSED the bread

Next, he brings you in once you’ve been taken out of those situations. He blesses you. When you come to God, the immediate blessing is a peace that surpasses understanding. It’s a blessing. He continues blessing you as He promised, elevating your experience. 

“Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”Philippians 4:7 

Step Three: Jesus BROKE the bread

We typically think of breaking in a negative light, but consider this: could Jesus have provided bread to every disciple without breaking it? By breaking the bread, Jesus multiplied it so every disciple could benefit from eating it. Breaking multiplies your effectiveness. Whatever you give to God, He will multiply back to you and multiply you in the process, so you can exponentially bless others. 

“Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.” Luke 6:38 

Step Four: Jesus USED the bread

Have you been seeking your purpose? Your purpose is where you are being used. Your purpose is found at the intersection of the challenges you’ve overcome and your gifts and talents. God uniquely applies His pattern at this exact point in your process, positioning you to be used powerfully for His kingdom. 

“But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 

Today’s Affirmation:

Your life is intentional. You were designed and created from a thought in God’s mind. You are right here, right now, on purpose and with purpose. Your design is being revealed to you today, and you can perceive the shift your mind is making to receive enlightenment from the heavenlies. There is a feeling of completion settling over your life as God completes the good work He started in you. You are filled with hope and vision. 

Daily Question of the Day:

Where are you in the process—are you in the taking, blessing, breaking, or being used? 

Day 5

Scriptures: Romans 12:12, 1 Samuel 25:14-19, 1 Samuel 25:23-24

As God shifts you, there is nothing that can come against, stop, or slow your blessing – nothing except your own words. I’ve created videos for these ten days with countless comments from women in our group who acknowledge the freedom and joy they gained when they realized how important it was to begin aligning their words with God’s words intentionally. The SHIFT is much easier when your words about your view match God’s words. 

It can be tempting to complain or withhold positivity when you’ve been in your process for a while, especially if that process has tested you. Today, know that you can have joy in the test because it is absolutely producing exactly what you need to handle the abundance of the shift you’re walking into! 

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12

A great Biblical example we can learn from is Abigail, both beautiful and wise and married to Nabal, a man whose name meant “fool.” In ancient Israel, a person’s character was often connected to their name. We don’t know how Nabal got this name, but he definitely lived up to it. After Nabal made a foolish statement to David, Abigail wisely spoke to David to save her family from destruction at David’s hands. After Nabal died, David—whose name means “love”— married Abigail. Abigail shifted from a foolish situation to a loving one through the wise use of her words.

Abigail was a beautiful woman trapped in a foolish situation out of her control. Still, despite how foolish her situation looked, she decided to speak what God was directing her to speak. 

Abigail teaches us the power of our words through three wise steps: 

#1: Listen well. Abigail had developed a reputation as a good listener. Her servants knew they could come to her and trust her with sensitive information. 1 Samuel 25:14-17 

#2: Act wisely. When Abigail learned how Nabal had insulted David, she didn’t dishonor her husband by complaining about him; instead, she went to David with an offering of kindness. 1 Samuel 25:18-19 

#3: Respond, don’t react. Abigail knew she was in a foolish situation, but she kept calm under pressure and responded instead of reacting. 1 Samuel 25:23-24 

The next step in becoming a woman who moves when God moves is learning how to respond to the view you see in front of you, using your words in alignment with God’s words, no matter what your view looks like. 

Today’s Affirmation:

Your words are forming wisely, and you feel patience when you respond. You know what is necessary to say and what is not. At this moment, you can feel how pleased God is that you are honoring Him with your words. This wisdom is hidden in your heart, and you bring glory to your Father’s name as your words about everything begin to align more and more with His. You are a wise woman. 

Daily Question of the Day: 

What area of your life can you begin speaking differently about today?

Day 6

Scriptures: Hebrews 11:3, Isaiah 49:15-16, Exodus 2:24, Numbers 23:19, Isaiah 41:10

As you SHIFT, know there is a specific purpose and blessing God has for your life, and it resides in the unknown. When your blessing comes, it’s not going to look like anyone else’s. 

What God is shifting you into is not known to the outward world; it is only known within His thoughts and revelation. It’s specific to your journey, process, trials, and purpose. See, God has a custom blessing for you, and He is shifting you and your blessing from an unknown place to a known place. 

Everything we now see in front of us was created from what cannot be seen. 

“By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.” Hebrews 11:3

You may have settled for only what you could see in the past. GOD wants to elevate you to a vantage point that expands your vision beyond what you can see. Through this process, He’s shifting your view to a higher level. God knows people typically want what they can see—the known. Instead, God is gifting you with what cannot be seen—a blessing from the unknown. 

It’s easy to look at someone else and think you’ll be satisfied if God “just does it like that.” But when you do that, you define what it means to succeed based on what you’ve seen as a success. God is a creative God. An unprecedented God. An on-time God! He has created a unique process for you, filled with purpose. This means there’s a specific gift He’s blessing you with as you go through. 

You’ve probably said the following phrase many times: “I’m going through it.” But did you know you were testifying to yourself every time you said that? “Going through” means a defined beginning and a defined ending, and when you come out on the other side, everything that was just a vision in your heart will be a blessing you hold in your hand! 

You’re operating by faith when you decide to trust God and release the need to see and understand how it will be done. What is faith? 

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1

This “now faith” we have will provide us with confidence and assurance to rest when going through periods of time when we can’t see. In fact, we can be encouraged and excited when we can’t see because we know God is creating a beautiful purpose for us from the unseen. He hasn’t forgotten you; in fact, God remembers you. 

“…Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne? But even if that were possible, I would not forget you! See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands…” Isaiah 49:15-16

Your “now faith” is activated as you trust God. You’ll enjoy a renewed hope and a confident assurance that He will do exactly what He promised He would do in your life. 

Today’s Affirmation:

You’ve discovered the freedom in releasing it all to God. You can feel the freedom in the release by the how, when, and why you’re turning it all over to Him. Your God is all-powerful, and He is holding you up in His right hand. You’re blessed. You’re favored. You’re safe. You’re provided for. You’re stable. You’re unshakable. You’ve been made righteous through Jesus. You’re a purposed, powerful woman of God. 

Daily Question of the Day:

What are three areas in your life where you see evidence that God has not forgotten you?

Day 7

Scriptures: Matthew 11:28-30, Psalms 23:2, Deuteronomy 28:1

I grew up with “old-school” parents. Parents who expected you to eat whatever they put in front of you, parents who could—with one look—stop you in your tracks. They expected you to do what was right, whether or not they were looking, and if you had to be disciplined, they would send you to your room afterward and tell you to “stop all the crying” and “go lay down.” 

Over the course of your process, you may have found yourself putting out an extreme effort to make progress. You may have been trying so hard to make your dreams happen. We can see another key insight in God’s pattern, an insight every wise woman implements with ease…REST. 

Rest is defined as peace, ease, and refreshment, and it’s a mandate from God. Is it time for you to stop trying and start resting? If so, tell yourself out loud—“go lay down.” 

“Then Jesus said, ‘Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.’” Matthew 11:28-30

It’s time for some of us to “go lay down.” You may fall into the category of “some of us” if you’ve been: 

  • Working so hard you can’t remember the last time you got a full night of rest 
  • Trying to make things happen but feel like you’re pushing against an immovable wall 
  • Worrying so much that you wake up with worry as the first thing on your mind 

Matthew 11:28-30 reveals a command from God. He is specifically instructing us to rest, and to not do so is to move in disobedience to His word. Every instruction God gives you is not meant to limit you but expand you. God can bless you when you choose obedience. Obedience is a display of wisdom. 

“If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.”Deuteronomy 28:1

We obey God when we stop carrying our burdens and start carrying His. Below are a few ways you can immediately increase your rest: 

  • STOP focusing on the impossibilities, and START focusing on the abundant possibilities 
  • STOP speaking negatively about your life in every way, and START speaking words that agree with what God said 
  • STOP trying to fill the silence and emptiness with busywork, and START learning to sit in the silence and allow Him to fill the space 
  • STOP talking, complaining, and comparing, and START listening, praising, and celebrating 

Your rest begins with the first three words of our scripture in Matthew, as Jesus says, “Come to Me.” Simply make your next step a step towards Him. Come to Him today, and He will give you rest for your body, mind, and soul. 

Today’s Affirmation:

Peace rests in your mind and heart today. The rest you need, you now have access to. God has removed it all from your shoulders, and you can rest in the loving arms of your Father right now. When you rise, you are strengthened, stronger, and more clear. You realize you have everything you need in Him. He is making a way that you perceive now. It is a way just for you. God cherishes you. 

Question of the Day:

Name one word or thought you’re going to stop, and declare what word or thought will replace it.

Day 8

Scriptures: Exodus 3:1-6, Exodus 34:29, Acts 12:7

We’ve covered a few wise steps to become women who move when God moves. We are aware of our words, we are responding instead of reacting, we’re activating NOW faith, and we’re even coming to God so He can give us rest. For the remaining three days of our study, we will cover the benefits of the SHIFT. Today, let’s discuss how the SHIFT enlightens you. 

In the Bible, one excellent person to observe who experienced enlightenment because of a shift is Moses. Moses watched sheep in the wilderness when an angel appeared in a burning bush. Moses went to investigate when he heard God calling him by name. When he arrived at the bush, God told Moses who He was, and Moses hid his face. 

Over the years, God worked with Moses, shifting him into his purpose. Then, this happens a few chapters later, in Exodus 34:29: 

“When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the Lord.” 

Before the SHIFT, Moses hid his face in God’s presence and tried to commune with God in the darkness. After the SHIFT, Moses stood boldly in God’s presence, and his face was radiant. He was no longer hiding his face. Moses could commune with God in the light—God’s supernatural light—and be blessed. 

There are two important realizations here:

  • Even when you don’t realize it, God is watching you: God lit the bush on fire because he knew Moses would see it. He was looking at Moses before Moses even knew he was being watched. God is always watching over you; you are never alone. 
  • The external always reflects what’s happening internally: When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, he wasn’t even aware that GOD’S LIGHT was reflected in how he showed up. God’s internal light was reflected on Moses’ face, the external. Moses’s internal shift in God’s presence resulted in something external that nobody could miss. 

I love the Bible because Moses didn’t even know people saw an outward change reflective of an inward SHIFT. You may have been looking for an outward change—you’ve been waiting for a car, a home, better health, a husband, a job, and all the while, God has been conducting an inward shift in your heart, your mind, and in your words. It’s going to create results nobody can miss in your life! 

It’s going to happen suddenly! All of a sudden, you look different. All of a sudden, you speak differently. All of a sudden, you move differently. All of a sudden, you’ll have this glow. Everything on the outside becomes enlightened because of the SHIFT on the inside. 

Today’s Affirmation:

The better way is now your norm. What used to be your ceiling is now your floor. Your face is radiant because of your time with God. He IS the source of your radiance. He is your contentment. He is your full joy. He has gifted you with wisdom and enlightenment. As you stand in God’s presence, waves of refreshing peace wash over you. You feel His love. You are radiating in His presence. You are satisfied. 

Question of the Day:

Where is God creating an internal shift in you?

Day 9

Scriptures: Matthew 5:6, Jeremiah 31:25, Isaiah 40:29, Isaiah 43:19

A friend of mine has been teaching herself stock trading. The other day, she had a conversation with an old classmate who shared that he was doing the same. She shared her manual process, and he shared that he used to follow the same manual process but had since hired a programmer to write a program that now runs automatically every day, making him ten times what he used to make with the manual process. Immediately, my friend realized that she wouldn’t need to do everything manually if she used his program. She had a paradigm shift! 

In this example, you have two people working towards the same goal, one working manually and the other watching his accounts replenished daily because he has a process performing the same pattern every day, PRODUCING the desired outcome.

It’s Day 9—are you becoming aware of the SHIFT around and inside you? We’ve made it this far, but we still need a paradigm shift because the way you used to work is not how God wants you to work now. He is replenishing you to never run out of strength in His presence. It’s a part of step two in His pattern when He blesses you. 

There is a supernatural anointing of your perspective when you allow God’s pattern to usher you into your purpose, which is where your provision lies. This provision is the answer to your prayer! How do you get that anointing of your perspective? You allow replenishment. 

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”Matthew 5:6

“For I will satisfy the weary soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish.”Jeremiah 31:25

“He gives power to the faint and increases the strength of the weak.” Isaiah 40:29

You may have become used to doing everything for yourself, but today, God is showing you this doesn’t have to be the case anymore. He is filling you, He is replenishing you, and He is giving you power, as the three scriptures above reveal. Replenishment allows you to relax and receive, shifting your perspective and your usual way of thinking. From this place of refreshment and replenishment, it becomes easier to see that God is doing a new thing. 

Who does He replenish? Between our three foundational scriptures, we see that God replenishes those who hunger, thirst, weary, faint, and weak. When we reach the end of what we know to do, we are in the ideal state for replenishment. If this is you, know that you’re in the right place. Our three verses above share that God supplies what you precisely need by performing three miracles in your life. He’s filling you, He’s satisfying you, and He’s empowering you. 

Receive God’s replenishment today. Are you in?

Today’s Affirmation:

You are in the right place and time for your replenishment. God is bringing you to a place of deep satisfaction and rich empowerment. He is causing you to be in the right place for His divine synchronicities to be performed in your life. He is bringing you to people you will bless today, and you’ll receive His blessing in return. You reside in a Christ-centered ecosystem, and He is finishing the good work He started in you. You are blessed. 

Question of the Day:

In what three areas do you need God’s replenishment?

Day 10

Scriptures: John 8:36, Genesis 2:15-16, Genesis 2:19-20, Psalms 19:14, Proverbs 16:20, Psalms 18:21, Psalms 68:19

It’s Day 10, and your SHIFT is HERE! The last benefit of the SHIFT that we’re covering in this series is released. Release means “to set free.” When you operate in your purpose, you are released into greatness. This is God’s gift to us, according to John 8:36, which says, “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” Once you’ve been released, you are free. 

God’s pattern has been fully laid over your process, and He’s bringing you into your purpose, where your provision lies. You are being released into your MORE. 

When God replenished—or filled—man again, the Bible says that Adam became a living thing and was released into His purpose when God placed him in the garden. Adam had to be aware of the responsibilities of his release. He was FREE, meaning he had free will to do and act as he pleased while operating in His purpose. While you celebrate the blessing of your release, remember the quote, “to whom much is given, much is required.” 

There are three things about Adam’s release that you, as a released woman, must be aware of in order to responsibly handle this blessing: 

First: Be aware of your environment

Adam was surrounded in the garden by creatures he had never seen, so he had to be aware of his environment and what was happening in it. Just like Adam, you must be mindful of the status of your environment. Be mindful of the things you say, the places you go, and the people you see—always endeavoring to honor God. Psalm 19:14

Second: Be aware of God’s instruction

Adam had a specific instruction from God to not eat from a certain tree. This indicates that even in your purpose and provision, there is a certain honor you must maintain for God’s instruction. Every instruction God gives you is for your protection. God is always keeping you through His instruction, no matter what is going on around you. Proverbs 16:20

Third: Be aware of the power of your words

Adam was surrounded by animals he had never seen before. To Adam, these were wild things, screeching things, things that surely looked bigger than him. God had called him to name each of these things. As God shifts you into your purpose, you’ll see some wild things, screeching things, and things that look bigger than you. Still, you’ll get to name them, and what you call each is what it will be known by. Use your words wisely. Proverbs 18:21

Now that this plan has ended, my prayer for you is that you’ve come into a sense of your true value in Christ, that you are enlightened, replenished, and released into your purpose and provision. I pray that you are blessed with a knowledge of God that will remain with you forever. You’ve become a woman who moves when God moves! Amen? Amen. 

Today’s Affirmation:

God’s SHIFT has enlightened you, replenished you, and released you into a goodness of God that exceeds what you thought was possible. It is abundantly above all that you imagined. In this place, there is a prosperity of His Spirit that keeps you lifted, even elevated. You rest in this knowing. You find serenity in this known place. Your answer is “yes!” when God brings opportunity your way. Today, you go powerfully forward in Jesus’s name. You are an heir to God’s throne. 

Question of the Day:

What will you do, now that you know God has released you into greatness?
