Don’t Stress About Your Steps

Don’t Stress About Your Steps Do you feel that your dreams are off track and somehow you must have missed God for your own self-righteous imaginations? Joseph wasn’t off track - but he must of felt like he was with all the problems he was going through after sharing his God dream with others. The plans of his brothers for harm fit with the plans of God for good. God saw the whole tragedy ahead of time and had woven His plan into it. Or…. Had God seen the plan and woven the tragedy into it? We are not sure exactly how God’s sovereignty operates in the self-will of humanity, but we know that it does. Even when life throws the unexpected at us, it is never unexpected for God. We are never as off track as we think we are. God orders our steps, even when we aren’t sure of them. Seek God and His will and be determined to pursue it, but don’t stress about your steps. God always puts them in order. Within your heart you can make plans for your future, but the Lord chooses the steps you take to get there. — Proverbs 16:9 TPT —XXOO😘Michelle Cosby Bollom Today’s Takeaway’s from Chris Tiegreen / One Year Walk With Gods

Are You Worn Out In Your Waiting On God

You can be confused, but still remain confident in the Lord You can be bewildered, but still believing in the goodness of God. You can be worn out but still be trusting and waiting on God to move …. Job felt the same way I bet - he was all those things yet he was just as sure of his own integrity as he was of God’s goodness. Job refused to be intimidated into a false confession by the accusations of his friends. Thinking of those “almost”polar opposites - I thought of my own life and how sometimes 💩 happens and I too am at times both those things … Job was confused yet confident Job was bewildered yet believing And Job surely was worn out yet still waiting on God. As I was diving in - I found an interesting bit I saw here in Job 33 …. Elihu had listened to the friend’s advice and also to Job’s defense — he had found both wanting… In Job 33 Elihu brings his case against Job - in 34 he accuses Job of arrogance - in 35 he reminds Job of God’s justice - in 36 & 37 he reminds Job of God’s power… But somehow he still never sides with Job or the others … Elihu clearly is focused rather on defending God’s honor from misleading statements. He appears to be a bit “short on the sugar” sympathy for Job. 😂 And even more surprising - we never heard of Elihu before chapter 32 - Nor was he mentioned after he closed his mouth- he wasn’t chastised by God along with Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar. It seems Elihu appeared - spoke - then disappeared ….. He had the last word in the conversation before God finally begins to speak in chapter 38. 🤯 I first started to unpack all this when I saw Job 33:4 - this is Elihu’s reply …. Job 33:4 - “ the Spirit of God made me what I am, the breath of God Almighty gave me life!” And tucked inside Elihu’s second speech is this gem!!! Job 34:10 … It’s impossible for God to do anything evil. 2 very commonly quoted verses. I decided to go back and read Elihu’s first, second, and third speech …. Elihu was dropping some pretty powerful nuggets!! I encourage you to read Job 33-38 and find your own powerful Promises to hold onto out of those nugget reminders Elihu is dropping. I also want to note Elihu may have gone on and on about God’s goodness in the midst of Job’s suffering and that could be a bit insensitive … sometimes we have the best intentions and we can be the same way … I am not making light of anyone’s suffering by stating those amazing Promises will fix your situation … but they are a wonderful place to start and they encouraged me greatly and I want you too to know … It is completely ok to be confused and confident, bewildered yet believing, and to be a bit worn out in the waiting like Job. But … Please hold on - and remember God is working All Things Out for your good! (Roman’s 8:28) And Hey Cheers to Elihu! Whoever he was for the great reminders of God’s amazing Promises. There’s always a Promise for every problem. So, as the old adage goes … “Write your name on the Promises - and declare! I too have made them mine!!” Let me know what others you discovered in those chapters. — XXOO Michelle Cosby Bollom RestoredPeopleCommunity Click the Bell 🔔 to subscribe Come Like Us On Facebook 👇🏻 Restored People Community https://www.facebook.com/restoredpeoplecommunity/ Poetically Prophetic - https://www.facebook.com/PoeticallyProphetic/ Need prayer?

All Times In All Ways

Peace can actually be painful for some people. Some are always looking at life as one mess mounting after another. They are Hyper - Focusing on the next shoe to drop. Unlearning this way of life can be hard. For some that is how you dealt and how you were raised or witnessed life. You learned to always deal in chaos. Evil foreboding can quickly overtake and occupy your thoughts. You were the one that could get busted in the lip and keep on whistling. When the wheels are coming off the bus you knew how to change a tire quick or walk. If it’s not drama filled - you don’t know how to deal with it. That way of coping protected you for a time but it also actually fuels pride … never Peace. This is many people …. This was me for way too many years. It’s exhausting! I crave I protect I guard at all costs Peace now. What I found is Peace is a Person. It’s not found in the perfect circumstances relationship’s or things of the World. He never told us to fight battles … He told us to stand firm and allow Him to handle them. He never told us all days would be rosy and restful … He said to rest in Him. He never said chase the World’s peace or that faux peace will cut it … He said His Peace is super natural and sufficient and only He can give. The search for Faux Peace is rampant …. Don’t be puffed up with pride on how well you can juggle all the junk thrown at you …. Stop looking for it by jumping from one addiction and compulsion to the next… Peace is never found in people chasing … ALL those things are foolish fast and fleeting. A over - full calendar can lead to an early casket. Not a full life. An over - drawn account will never be able to buy it. If you always move at the speed of the world’s “lightening speeds” you will actually dim the real Light of Life that is meant to sustain and strengthen you. Peace will always be out of reach when you reach for anything other than The Prince of Peace. Just some thoughts I am pondering today … 😘XXOO Michelle Bollom “Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times, in all ways. The Lord be with you all.” — 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Lead With Our Ears

Let’s lead with our ears today and not with our mouths. Be more intentional with the words you speak today. Weigh your words and measure the pace. When you’re slow to speak, anger rarely gets to take the reins because this pace diffuses its haste. — Thoughts from Breathe Daily Devotional by Charlotte Gambill Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. — James 1:9 Click the Bell 🔔 to subscribe Come Like Us On Facebook 👇🏻 Restored People Community https://www.facebook.com/restoredpeoplecommunity/ Poetically Prophetic - https://www.facebook.com/PoeticallyProphetic/ Need prayer?

Don’t Be Snared

Proverbs 29:25 is a warning, it tells us “the fear of man brings a snare”.. Being overly concerned about what people think of us, and fearing their possible rejection of us is actually a dangerous trap of the enemy that he uses to try and control us. It will either muzzle or silence us from speaking the truth, when necessary, or provoke us to say what people want to hear instead of the word of the Lord that they need to hear. — Rick Renner Click the Bell 🔔 to subscribe Come Like Us On Facebook 👇🏻 Restored People Community https://www.facebook.com/restoredpeoplecommunity/ Poetically Prophetic - https://www.facebook.com/PoeticallyProphetic/ Need prayer?

How Do You View Your Problems

How you look at a problem will determine how quickly you get out of it. No temptation has come upon you except what is common to mankind. For God, Who is faithful, will not permit you to be tempted beyond what you are able to bear; but with the temptation, He will make a way of escape, so that you may be able to bear it. — 1 Corinthians 10:13 AFV XXOO Michelle 😘

Just Be Patient

These things I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day!

Rejection Is Actually Protection

Rejection - it doesn’t feel good. But what if it’s really God’s protection for you? Sometimes we must trust the Divine Departures and Gifts Of Goodbye. Not everyone can go where God is taking us. Seasons change and friends can come and go. But only One remains! Trust God with the sifting of the wheat from the chaff. He knows what and who you need to do His will. Some friendships don’t last for long, but there is one loving friend who is joined to your heart closer than any other! Proverbs 18:24 TPT ~ XXOO Michelle Cosby Bollom

Total Celebration

Lord, I have chosen you alone as my inheritance. You are my prize, my pleasure, and my portion. I leave my destiny and its timing in your hands. Your pleasant path leads me to pleasant places. I’m overwhelmed by the privileges that come with following you, for you have given me the best! The way you counsel and correct me makes me praise you more, for your whispers in the night give me wisdom, showing me what to do next. Because you are close to me and always available, my confidence will never be shaken, for I experience your wrap-around presence every moment. My heart and soul explode with joy—full of glory! Even my body will rest confident and secure. For you will not abandon me to the realm of death, nor will you allow your Holy One to experience corruption. For you bring me a continual revelation of resurrection life, the path to the bliss that brings me face-to-face with you. — Psalm 16:5-11 TPT In Your presence is Total Celebration. - Psalm 16:11 CEB.

Get Ready For Overflow

LORD, you created so many things! With your wisdom you made them all. The earth is full of the living things you made. — Psalm 104:24 ERV Message translation states “Overflow” in place of the word full. God is full of endless possibilities - maybe it’s time you start believing for something greater… His hand is never shortened! Get ready for an “overflow” especially when the world is screaming at us with much fear of lack.
