Happy Monday, Sis!
Did you have a good weekend?
I sure did!
Did you get some rest?
Good!
Because today, we're about to Make some NEW Moves!
Since I passed my Real Estate exam...
(And you ALL you knew I would, right? In Jesus' name!)
My mind has been racing at 100 miles per hour.
Why?
Because I'm going IN, GIRL!!
And I'm ready to hit the ground running,
Learn this industry
Build this business
And possess the LAND!
Okay!
But this morning, during my study time
I was reminded that God's plan
is ALWAYS the best plan
And the truth is...
He will GIVE us the RIGHT plan
IF
We seek him and ask him
for wisdom and spiritual understanding.
' And ye shall remember the Lord your GOD, for it is HE who gives you power
to get wealth, that He may establish His Covenant, which He swore to your
Fathers, as it is this day.' Deuteronomy 8:18 (NKJV)
So with that being said...
It's time to Make a NEW Move, Sis.
And Let's call it a GOD Move this Monday!
CHECK IN # 1: Be Ye Thankful
When's the last time you took your 'thankfulness' temperature?
It's easy to tell when the baby is sick, when we sense
they have a warm body or forehead, right?
But is it just as easy to tell when we're being 'Unthankful'?
Do WE really appreciate ALL we have been blessed with?
Or do We see our accomplishments
as some extension of our individual
Skillset, Education, Affluence, or Ability to Network?
Let's unpack our professional prowess, for a moment,
And let's agree that there is a God.
A Creator
A Way maker
A giver of Life and breathe.
And since we know, WE are unable to take any credit for having the supply
of breath in our lungs this morning
Then Girl!
You better raise them hands and Praise the Lord!
And not just for the air in your lungs,
But for every dollar in the bank
Every connection you have made
Every motivation and every ambition
And the ability to Make a GOD Move on Today!
CHECK IN #2 : Be Ye Fruitful
Many of us are on the GO, day in and day out...
Back to back meetings
Congested 'to-do' lists
Moving and shaking
Hustling and flowing'
LITERALLY.
But just because we're moving, Sis
Doesn't necessarily mean we're being fruitful, okay?
Fruit is produced based on what is planted.
Let me say it again.
FRUIT is PRODUCED by what is PLANTED.
Apple trees produce apples.
Banana trees produce bananas.
What fruit are you producing, Sis?
Because the goal is to PRODUCE as well as PERFORM.
And what you're producing, identifies the good or bad in what you're doing.
"That ye might walk worthy in the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every
GOOD work, increasing in the knowledge of God" Colossians 1:10(KJV)
Our good works produce good fruit
Bad works produce bad fruit
Just as our idle works produce idle fruit...
You get it, Sis.
Time for a fruit check!
For those of you producing good fruit, WAY to GO!
Find a way to keep multiplying, because it' only February.
For those of you who don't like what you're producing,
Then maybe it's time to Make a GOD Move?
Because time is of the essence, and your time is NOW!
CHECK IN # 3: Be Ye Patient
A few weeks ago in a meeting, my Supervisor encouraged me to
"Pack my Patience"
Based on the content of what we were discussing, she was asking me to wait.
And she was right in that moment.
Because waiting is an area of much needed growth for me.
However, the word patience, goes deeper than merely 'the wait'
In fact, if you study the word, patience, you'll find it comes
from the Greek word 'makrothumia' which is translated as
LONG-SUFFERING.
Interested, huh?
I thought so, too.
But what does long suffering have to do with creating wealth?
Girl, You don't know?
Because, I know, you didn't expect creating wealth to be easy, right?
Or come quickly for that matter.
So, Long-suffering, will become the road we must travel
To receive the promise...
And to possess the land as God has given us authority to do.
Long-suffering is your guiding light to keep you on the right path
And on this path, Opposition becomes Opportunity
So embrace the challenges,
Enduring the tests and trials,
Maintain your momentum,
Stay focused,
And keep your eye on the prize!
In order to be successful at ANYTHING
Including creating wealth,
You must SURRENDER all your Plans and Ideas
And SUBMIT your will to GOD's plan!
I DARE you trust His word!
And when you do,
Not only will you Make that GOD Move, Sis!
But you will PRODUCE your Best FRUIT Yet!
