🌸 47 and pregnant, not ashamed, and not bothered.(UPDATE in comment section🔥🔥🔥)
Still 32 weeks pregnant today, and I’ll be 33 weeks pregnant on Monday. 💕 Today I’m taking Miss Rayah, who is still right here in this womb, to her doctor’s appointment. We’re doing a recheck on her heart to make sure all the fluid is disappearing. 🙏🏽💕
Other than that, let’s jump into some quick encouragement for today, because this world is busy out here!
“Fret not thyself because of evildoers.” Psalm 37:1
Stop worrying about what people are doing, what they’re saying, or what they may be trying to do behind the scenes. Put it in God’s hands.
The Bible says, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” Romans 12:19
And really, who better to handle it than the Lord?
You don’t have to fight every battle. You don’t have to respond to everything. You don’t have to prove yourself to anybody. When you put it in God’s hands, leave it there.
Rest peacefully today knowing that God sees what you don’t see, He hears what you don’t hear, and He knows exactly how to fight your battles.
All right, love y’all. See y’all soon. 💕🌸

🌸 God’s Protection, Even When We Don’t See It…..
(Stay with me, ’cause it’s about to get good. But first, let me give you a baby update.) 💕
🌸I’m 47, pregnant, Not ashamed & Not bothered🌸
I officially turned 32 weeks pregnant on Monday. Baby girl Rayah is getting bigger and bigger. 💕 We got an appointment to knock out this week, and then comes the joy of being busy with appointments because y’all know my older age means high risk pregnancy. So the doctors just love seeing us. 😂
I am walking more and getting my body prepared for birth. I am a true believer that walking helps prepare your body for labor. 🙌🏽
I have birthed 8 kids. This is baby number 9 , and all eight were vaginal births with no C sections. I am believing and confessing that we will not have any complications with this delivery, that we will have another vaginal birth, and that it will not be a long labor with baby girl Rayah. 🙏🏽💕
Now don’t get me wrong, ain’t nobody trying to have no baby in the house, in the garage, in the car, or in the hospital parking lot. 😂 She gonna wait till we get to the hospital. I’m just saying! And no, we’re not doing a home birth. 😂
All right, now stay with me, because this is where the encouragement comes in. 🌸
The Bible says:
“For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.” Psalm 91:11 -12 🙏🏽
One thing I want to say is that often times God is protecting us and we don’t even know He’s protecting us. 🙏🏽
I’ll give y’all a quick story.
I moved here from the state of Kentucky to Arizona. I remember I had my kids, my dogs, and my cats with me, y’all. We were traveling, and I was also towing another vehicle.
We were passing through the state of Oklahoma, and I was getting tired. I wanted to pull over and find a motel so we could get some sleep.
I came to this motel. There were cars in the parking lot, but nobody was outside.
My son was like, “Mom, I ain’t got no good feeling about this motel.”
But I was tired, y’all.
I went inside, and another family member was paying for my motel at the time. The clerk at the front desk said, “I’m sorry, we don’t take over the phone payments.”
So I went back outside to leave the motel.
And I kid you not, y’all, when I came back outside, there was a good amount of people standing outside looking at my vehicle. 👀
They weren’t there when I pulled up.
Remember, I had my children with me, and I was towing another vehicle.
I looked around and was like, “Yeah, let’s get back in this vehicle and drive.”
We got back on the road. We ended up finding a huge travel gas station stop, pulled over, got some sleep until the sun came up, and then continued driving toward our destination in Arizona. Eventually, we stopped at a nice hotel.
But that situation has always reminded me of God’s protection when we don’t even realize He’s protecting us. 🙏🏽
The rejection I got that day from that clerk was God’s protection.
Nobody was outside that motel when I pulled up. But when I came back outside after being told no, there was a good handful of people outside watching my vehicle.
I was in the wrong location, and God had to move me along the way.
Oftentimes in life, we don’t realize what God is protecting us from.
We don’t know what He’s guarding us from.
We don’t know what rejection from places we weren’t supposed to walk into was protecting us from.
We don’t know what friendships God allowed to end because He was protecting us.
But let me tell you one thing. God keeps His Word. 🙌🏽
He will give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways.
Another example found in the Bible here..
Look at Balaam and his donkey in Numbers 22. Balaam was headed down a path that angered God, so the angel of the Lord stood in his way. Balaam couldn’t see the angel, but his donkey could. Three times the donkey tried to stop, and Balaam became frustrated because he didn’t understand why. Then God opened his eyes, and Balaam saw the angel standing there with a sword. 🙏🏽 What Balaam thought was an obstacle was actually protection.🙌🏽
Sometimes we may not understand the no, the obstacles, the closed doors, or the push back!
But God sees what we don’t see. 🙏🏽 Trust that Jesus keeps those safe who belong to Him. 🙏🏽

🌸47 and pregnant,Not Ashamed & Not Bothered🌸 and baby Rayah is up in here moving stronger and stronger every day! These last couple of months are going to be busy! 😂 But let’s jump into some encouragement today.
Guard the purpose that God has placed on your life. Guard your heart.
One thing I want to talk about today is not allowing people to pull you away from the calling that God has placed on your life.
Because let me tell you something: God has a calling on your life.
God has already anointed and equipped you to do the things He has called you to do.
People can try to copy what they see, but they cannot copy or mimic the anointing God has placed on your life. The anointing comes from God. It is God working through you, moving through you, equipping you, and empowering you to do what He has called you to do.
You can’t manufacture that. You can’t copy that.
But what people CAN try to do is get you off track.
Distractions can come through envy, strife, jealousy, rage bait, foolishness, spitefulness, and all kinds of opposition. And sometimes, when God is moving in your life, not everyone is going to understand it, celebrate it, or support it.
But that’s not where your focus should be.
You have to recognize the distraction and refuse to fall for it.
And understand this: not every distraction is going to look like a distraction.
Sometimes it will sound good. Sometimes it will sound meaningful. Sometimes it may even sound spiritual.
Someone may come to you saying, “God wants you to do this,” or trying to redirect you toward something that sounds right. But if it contradicts what God has already instructed you to do, you better know what God told YOU and stay with it.
Everything that sounds good isn’t necessarily God.
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God…” 1 John 4:1 NKJV
Don’t allow someone else’s actions, words, or behavior to pull you away from what God has called you to do.
Satan’s goal is to distract you.
Let me give you a biblical example.
In 1 Kings 13:1–32, God sent a man of God from Judah to Bethel with a specific assignment and specific instructions. He was to deliver God’s word, not eat or drink there, and leave without returning the same way he came.
He delivered the word and began to leave.
But an older prophet came after him and claimed that an angel had spoken to him and told him to come back and eat and drink.
But the Bible says he was lying to him. 1 Kings 13:18
That was a distraction.
It sounded spiritual. It came from another prophet. It even came from someone claiming to have heard from God.
It sounded good, but it wasn’t God.
The man of God allowed that distraction to pull him away from what God had already instructed him to do.
And it cost him his life. It cost him the ministry that God had entrusted into his hands.
I want to remind you today: don’t get distracted.
Don’t allow people to pull you away from the things that God has called you to do, because it can completely take you off the purpose and the plan that God has for your life.

🌿 Your Blessing Could Be Tied Up In Your Obedience
There’s a story in the Bible about the prophet Elisha and a man named Naaman. 2 Kings 5:1–14 Naaman was a commander of the Syrian army, but he had leprosy.
There was a young Israelite servant girl who served Naaman’s wife, and she told her about the prophet Elisha who was in Samaria. She knew that Elisha was a man of God and that Naaman could be healed of his leprosy.
Eventually, Naaman went to see the prophet Elisha. But Elisha didn’t even come outside to meet him. Instead, he sent a messenger with a word telling Naaman to go wash himself in the Jordan River seven times and his flesh would be restored.
Naaman got angry.
His pride almost caused him to miss out on his blessing because he didn’t like how God chose to do it. He basically said, “Aren’t there better and cleaner rivers than the Jordan?”
Naaman was expecting his healing to happen a certain way. He expected Elisha to come out, call on the name of the Lord, wave his hand over the place, and heal him.
But God had given him instructions through the prophet Elisha.
One of Naaman’s servants spoke wisdom to him and basically said, “If the prophet had told you to do some great thing, wouldn’t you have done it? So why not do what he told you to do?”
And that’s when Naaman obeyed God through the word given by the prophet Elisha.
Naaman humbled himself, followed the instructions, went down into the Jordan River, and dipped himself seven times according to the word of the man of God.
And when he came up, his flesh was restored, and he was made clean.
His blessing was on the other side of his obedience to God.
See, the Bible says, faith without works is dead. James 2:17
You can say you have faith in God. You can say you trust God. But sometimes that faith requires you to move and be obedient to what God has told you to do.
Putting your faith to work means trusting God enough to obey Him. It means believing that if God tells you to do something, even when you don’t completely understand it, you trust Him enough to follow His instructions. That obedience becomes an outward action of the faith you say you have in God.
Naaman had to put his faith to work. He had to humble himself, get into that Jordan River, and dip seven times. He could have stood there all day saying he believed God could heal him, but he still had instructions from God that required his obedience.
Think about the lame man at the gate called Beautiful. Acts 3:1–10 He had been unable to walk from birth and was carried there daily to ask for money. When he saw Peter and John, he expected them to give him something.
Peter told him, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” Acts 3:6 NKJV
And that man got up!
That man went from sitting there expecting money to walking, leaping, and praising God!
There was faith, but there was also action.
Whatever God is commanding you to do today, be obedient.
Your blessing could be tied up in following and being obedient to what God has already commanded you to do.
Maybe it’s healing.
Maybe it’s restoration.
Maybe it’s a financial blessing.
Maybe it’s whatever you have been seeking God about in prayer.
Put your faith to work through obedience to God.
Don’t allow pride, fear, stubbornness, or your own understanding to cause you to miss what God has for you simply because His instructions don’t look the way you expected them to look.
The Bible says:
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. Isaiah 55:8 NKJV
Sometimes what God tells you to do may not make sense to you. It may not look the way you thought it would look. But His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts. Trust Him enough to obey Him.
I hope this encourages someone today. ❤️
God bless,
Momma Singh

I was that young teenage mom that many looked down on….🌸
I was a young teenage mother that the world counted out. I was that young mother people looked down on and probably thought, “What is she going to do with her life?”
Then I became that married mother with a ton of kids and was told I had too many kids to work in ministry.
I didn’t drive a fancy car. I didn’t have all the money in the bank. And I had a past.
So according to the world, I must not be worthy. According to the world, God can’t use me because I don’t look a certain way or have certain things that the world counts as important.
But I always tell people, oh, how God will turn the tables on people. 🙌🏽
Because, see, when the people in the church, your family, or friends don’t see the calling God placed on your life, don’t you dare think that means God can’t use you.
People may count you out because you don’t look the part. You don’t have the title. You don’t have the money. Your life doesn’t fit the picture they have in their minds of who God should use.
But remember this: God does not need man’s validation to use you. He is the One who validates us, not man. 🙏🏽
Because, see, God is looking for a willing heart. A heart that is surrendered to Him. He’s not looking for perfect people. He’s looking for those who are willing to say:
“God, wherever You go, I will go. Use me.” ❤️
“For man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7 NKJV
Look throughout the Bible, and you’ll find so many great examples. But today, I want you to look at this woman who came to Jesus with a sinful reputation.
I really want you guys to take the time and read this story because THIS is important.
This woman came to Jesus, stood at His feet weeping, washed His feet with her tears, wiped them with her hair, kissed His feet and anointed them with fragrant oil.
And while she was doing this, there were people in the room looking at her reputation. Looking at her past. Looking at who she had been.
The Pharisee even questioned within himself why Jesus would allow a woman like HER to touch Him.
But Jesus knew exactly who was touching Him.
And Jesus Himself said:
“Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much.”
Luke 7:47 NKJV
Jesus was making a powerful point: the one who has been forgiven much LOVES much. ❤️
Listen to me.
That past you may have. That record you may have. Those things you may have done that you thought tainted your life so badly that God could never use you.
When God has forgiven you, your past does not get the final word over your life.
The Word of God says:
“As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.”
Psalm 103:12 NKJV
And Micah gives us another beautiful picture of God’s mercy:
“You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.”
Micah 7:19 NKJV
Do you hear that? Removed. As far as the east is from the west. Cast into the depths of the sea. 🙏🏽
Maybe it’s the people around you saying, “God can’t use you. Look at your reputation. Look at your past.”
But they’re looking at what you WERE. God is looking at the surrendered heart standing before Him NOW.
And when you KNOW what God has forgiven you from, there is a love and compassion that can come from understanding just how desperately we all need a Savior.
You understand what it feels like to need grace. You understand what it feels like to need mercy. You understand what it feels like to fall and need God to pick you back up.
And because you understand the struggle, you can reach back and love people right where they are. ❤️
You can pray for them. You can intercede for them. You can reach the person everybody else has already counted out.
You can look beyond somebody’s reputation and see a SOUL that needs Jesus, because you remember when that soul was YOU.
That’s what I want you to understand.
God is looking for people who can reach souls that need to know Him. He is NOT looking for someone with a perfect life. He is looking for someone with a surrendered life. 🙏🏽 “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me…” Galatians 2:20 NKJV
And sometimes the very past you thought disqualified you becomes part of the testimony God uses to help you reach somebody else.
What the enemy meant for evil, God can turn around for GOOD. 🙌🏽
“But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good.”
Genesis 50:20 NKJV

Hey Fam Fam🌸🌸 Let Jump into some encouragement for today …
🌿 The Reason You May Not Be Hearing From God…
“If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.” Isaiah 1:19 🙏🏽
Being willing is not enough. God also calls us to obedience.
The Bible tells us not to be hearers of the Word only, but doers of the Word (James 1:22). That means applying the word of God to our life daily. Also when God’s Word identifies something as sin, we are called to turn away from it, not knowingly continue in it while expecting God’s blessing.
Scripture also says, “The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.” Proverbs 15:29
This does not mean righteous people are perfect or never fall into sin. Our righteousness comes through Christ, and we are quick to repent. But there is a difference between stumbling and repenting and choosing to live in deliberate disobedience with no desire to turn from it.
You cannot separate obedience from your walk with God. 🙌🏽 If God tells you to let something go, let it go. If He tells you to turn away from sin, turn away. If He tells you to obey His Word, obey it.
Sometimes we’re asking, “God, why aren’t You answering me?” 🤔 When the real question should be, “God, is there something You’ve already told me to do that I’m refusing to obey?”
🔥 Don’t just hear the Word. Live it.
Obedience matters.
“If you love Me, keep My commandments.” John 14:15 ❤️

Hey He Fam Fam 🌸🌸
🌸 47 and pregnant. A mom to going on 9 children. An intercessor. A prayer warrior for Christ. Not ashamed and not bothered.
I’m walking in all that God has called me to walk in, knowing that His approval and His validation are everything in a world full of chaos and mess.
I rise every day to glorify and worship His name. I pray over my children. I pray for protection over them and proclaim that He will give His angels charge over them, to keep them in all their ways. Psalm 91:11
I intercede on their behalf. I use the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven that God has given us to bind and to loose, and I walk in the authority that God has given us. Matthew 16:19
The Bible says, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people… who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” 1 Peter 2:9
I am the apple of His eye. Deuteronomy 32:10
His thoughts toward me are good and not evil, to give me a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
And today, if you don’t remember who God has called you to be, remember this. While you were still a sinner, Christ died for you. Romans 5:8 You are Valuable to JESUS!!🙏🏽🩷
You don’t need validation from the world when you know who you are in Christ.
Walk boldly in who God has called you to be, knowing that His approval is the only approval that truly matters.
As Paul said, “For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10

Hey Fam Fam 🌸 I am officially 30 weeks pregnant! ( Monday will be 31 weeks) Let me stop and get my little dancey dance on! 😂💃🏽 Your girl is excited!
Now we count down the weeks, y’all! We’re getting closer and closer to meeting this baby girl, so LET’S GO! 🙌🏽
🌸47 and pregnant not ashamed & not bothered.🌸
Now let me tell y’all one thing. This is a scripture that God dropped on my heart today:
Galatians 6:9: “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
When I tell y’all , in life, we have to continue to do good. We have to continue to stand up for what is right. We have to stand for justice. And listen, y’all, even setting healthy boundaries is doing good.
The Bible tells us not to grow weary because in due season, we WILL reap if we don’t give up. 🙌🏽
And one of the greatest examples of somebody reaping a harvest because of the good they sowed was King David himself.
The Bible says David was a man after God’s own heart. Now David wasn’t perfect. He made mistakes, and some of them were BIG mistakes. But David had a heart that continually turned back toward God.
And when you study the Bible, especially 1 and 2 Kings, you’ll notice something powerful. Long after David was gone, God was STILL mentioning David when dealing with the generations that came after him.
Look at what God said concerning David’s son Solomon:
1 Kings 11:12–13: “Nevertheless I will not do it in your days, for the sake of your father David… However I will not tear away the whole kingdom… for the sake of My servant David.”
Y’ALL! Catch that! 🙌🏽
For the sake of David.
David was already gone, but his obedience and his relationship with God were still affecting the generations that came after him. The good David sowed didn’t just bless David. It blessed generation after generation after generation.
And let me tell y’all something right here.
YOU WILL BE THE CURSE BREAKER IN YOUR FAMILY.
Your obedience to God WILL do something in your bloodline. You will be the one who says, “This stops with me.” The dysfunction stops with me. The cycles stop with me. The things that have been passed from generation to generation stop with me.
And from you forward, we are building something different.
Your prayers matter.
Your obedience matters.
Your decision to follow God matters.
Your decision to do what is right when everybody else is doing wrong matters.
YOU are changing what gets passed down to the next generation.
And, when God makes a promise, He keeps His promise. 🙌🏽
That’s why you cannot get weary in doing good. You don’t know how far the seeds you are planting today are going to travel. You may be sowing something that your children, your grandchildren, and generations you will never even meet are going to reap the harvest from.
So I stand today on God’s promises…
Never get tired of doing the right thing. Never stop doing good just because you don’t see the harvest yet.
Keep sowing.
Keep praying.
Keep teaching.
Keep standing for what is right.
Keep setting those healthy boundaries.
Keep doing good.
Because the Word says in due season you WILL reap if you do not lose heart. 🌱❤️
And remember this:
Your harvest might start with you, but it doesn’t have to end with you. The seeds you sow in obedience today can produce fruit for generations to come. 🙌🏽❤️

Hey Fam Fam… Let me share what the Facebook Fam is coming after your Girl!🤣🤣 Hope it makes you giggle!
Y’all know I always like to make y’all giggle, so let’s jump right into it because we’re about to repost this picture again. 😂
Let me remind some of y’all folks out there. Your girl is in her THIRD TRIMESTER.
Do you know what that means?!
Every night I’m trying to find a comfortable position with about 500 pillows. One between my legs, one behind my back, one under my belly, one somewhere near my butt crack. 😂 Wherever I can put a pillow to help support me and this baby, THAT’S WHERE IT’S GOING. 😭😂
Then I’m peeing every 30 minutes all night long.
So picture me getting comfortable with all 500 pillows, finally closing my eyes, and then my bladder says:
GET UP.
Now my big behind is waddling to the bathroom AGAIN. 😂🤦🏽♀️
And on top of all that, I’M TIRED.
But some of y’all will give me the sweetest compliment and then slide this in:
“Girl, you look GOOD, but your eyes look tired.”
MA’AM. 😭😂
I know my eyes look tired! 😂
But before anybody thinks I’m offended, let me say this. 🩷 I still love y’all, and I love your comments. I know most of y’all are saying it because you care about me, you’ve been following this pregnancy journey, and you’re genuinely checking on your girl. I know it’s coming from a place of love and not a bad place at all. 🩷 So please know I’m just having a little fun with y’all because if we can’t laugh together, what are we doing?! 😂
Okay, back to my story. 😂
Ain’t nobody out here running through the third trimester full of energy after peeing all night and rearranging pillows every 15 minutes. 😂
At this point, all I want is me, this baby, my couch, and a NAP.
So since y’all keep reminding me about these tired eyes, I have officially decided that I will now be accepting donations for my Third Trimester Under Eye Patch Fund. 😂😂😂
Because apparently the next time I take a picture, I need to look refreshed and well rested like I haven’t been waddling to the bathroom all night. 😭😂
But seriously, if y’all have any good tricks for these tired third trimester eyes, drop them below because your girl is listening! 😂
And while we’re laughing, here’s your Sunday reminder from Philippians 2:3–4 (MSG). Don’t live trying to impress people or make everything about yourself. Walk in humility, put others ahead of yourself, and care about what they’re going through too. Sometimes we have to get outside of ourselves long enough to reach out and help somebody else. ❤️🙏🏽
Love y’all! ❤️ I hope you’re having an amazing Sunday.
Laugh more. Giggle more. Love more. And always remember, you are amazing. ❤️
Momma Singh 🤰🏽💕

🌸 Hey Fam Fam🌸Prepare for Your Blessing!
If God laid something on your heart, if He spoke something to you, believe that He’s going to do it. Believe that He’s going to open doors and make a way.
But before I go into my testimony, I want you to listen to this story.
Jesus was at a wedding with His mother when they ran out of wine. His mother came to Him and told Him, “They have no wine.” Jesus basically let her know that His hour had not yet come.
But listen, she knew who her Son was. She knew what He was capable of doing. She asked, and she believed in faith that He would do what she asked of Him. She turned to the servants and said:
“Whatever He says to you, do it.” John 2:5 NKJV
Y’all, catch that! They prepared for the blessing.
Jesus told the servants to fill the waterpots with water. The Bible says there were six stone waterpots, and they filled them up to the brim. Then Jesus told them to draw some out and take it to the master of the feast. Somewhere in their obedience, the water became wine. John 2:6–9 NKJV
Get that picture in your mind. Water, y’all! They had never seen water turned into wine before. They didn’t know how Jesus was going to do it. All they knew was what He told them to do.
So they did it.
They prepared for the blessing before they ever saw the miracle.
His mother brought the need to Jesus, believed in faith that He would do what she asked, and then told the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
That’s what I want somebody to catch this morning. Sometimes preparing for your blessing means doing what God told you to do before you see any evidence that what He promised is about to happen.
Prepare for your blessing.
And that brings me to my own testimony because I’ve seen God do this in my life before.
Years ago, I was pregnant with my daughter, and we were living in a small apartment. I knew we needed a bigger place, but I had no idea where we were moving. I just started packing. I had boxes sitting by the door.
My husband looked at me like, “Where are we moving to?” 😂
I said, “I don’t know, but God is going to show us.”
And He did. That year, God opened the door for us to move into a three bedroom townhouse that fit our family.
Then, before we moved to Arizona, something similar happened. I was searching and searching for an apartment, but I couldn’t find anything that worked for us, especially with our dog.
One day, I happened to get on Zillow. Now, I knew Zillow had house rentals, but I didn’t know they had entire rental communities on there like this. They had townhouses and standalone houses, and every single home in the community was a rental. The entire community was managed by one big leasing company.
Arizona is different, y’all. I’m just gonna say Arizona is different. 😂 The whole community be rentals!
And that’s exactly what I came across: a brand new community of rental homes.
We traveled thousands of miles to Arizona and moved into a brand new, never lived in townhome. Upstairs and downstairs, a two car garage, resort style pool, gym, everything. For the second time, God allowed us to be the first family to live in a brand new place.
That’s why I’m telling somebody today: Prepare for your blessing.
If you’ve been asking God for a baby, start preparing. Take care of your body. Get yourself healthy and physically prepared to carry that baby.
If you and your fiancé have been talking about marriage and you know it’s time to get things in order, get things in order. “Let all things be done decently and in order.” — 1 Corinthians 14:40 NKJV🙏🏽
Whatever God has placed on your heart, prepare for it.
You don’t need me to know what God told you. Nobody else has to understand it, and nobody else has to convince you. You have to know what God spoke to YOU and hold on to it.
The Bible says:
“So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void…” Isaiah 55:11 NKJV
I don’t care what difficulties come up. I don’t care what hard times come. I don’t care what it looks like or what the world says. If you know what God placed on your heart, believe Him and start preparing.
Sometimes faith looks like packing boxes before you even have an address.
I’m preparing for my next journey in life. I don’t see it yet, but I know it’s coming.
“In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” John 14:2 NKJV
