Have you been struggling with your identity? Do you listen to a lot of the lies that you tell yourself? There are things that we have to confess over ourselves and recognize what we value and what we believe to be true. And this episode I share a lot about some of the struggles that I have faced and still struggle to it today about my identity and learning to not find my identity and the hats that I wear, and the roles that I play, but instead, I find my identity in Christ, and what he says about me. I talk about how we can learn to combat the lies we still ourselves, and rebuke the enemy when we humble ourselves before God, I also share some great ways to view ourselves through the lenses of Gods word. I want to encourage you with this word to remind you that you were not alone and to not fight by yourself, but learn to fight in God's presence. We have to confess truth over ourselves!

In this episode, I share how to confront past hurts and wounds that we didn't know were there. I talk about how to identify them and confront them so that you can fully heal from them. What we don't confront, we won't conquer. In order to heal we need to expose the pain and not just put a band aid on it expecting it to fully heal. It's going to take faith and forgiveness for complete healing. The first step to healing is to find the source of that pain and what pain is being triggered the most.  What is causing you pain? Why is it causing you pain? Identify what those triggers are and what are cousin those open wounds to hurt again. We have to find the root cause of that pain, the first sign of a trigger is when we have a disporportion reaction for something that was small, we overreact on something that shouldn't cause us to over react.  Allow those moments for you to pause and recognize the emotion behind the over reaction and be honest with yourself.  Expose the wounds that have hurt you and learn to break the toxic cycle of negativity.  Proverbs 17:22 “A cheerful heart is good medicine.” The joy comes from being in God's presence it is the joy of the Lord that gives us strength. Healing is a process and a journey. Its going to take faith and forgiveness to fully heat. Faith is what we need to believe that Christ can heal us and we need to forgive those that caused us pain and forgive ourselves.

In this episode, I get to share my journey of an unexpected season. It can be scary and uncomfortable to step into a new season that is unfamiliar. The challenge of a new unexpected season is the word, unexpected. You don't what to expect when it's all new to you, and you're rolling with the punches. Your perspective and priorities change and there has to be an adjustment to your normal routine and your normal thought process. Things in your life will have to adapt the this unexpected season. It doesn't necessarily mean that it is going to be negative that is why it's important to go into it with an open mind and an open heart. You're evolving with it and growing organically and naturally whether you realize it or not. When youre facing the fire and hitting the wall you have to fight for the truth.  Take time to check your mindset pattern. Your old patterns cannot conform to the new patterns if you're still stuck in an old pattern. Be aware of what you're confessing to yourself.  Remember what God said and promised you.  People lose their way when they lose their why. Let the word of God be a lamp unto your feet in the midst of darkness. When you walk in an unexpected season you will face unfamiliar territory and you have to hold onto God's truth and what you know. When we're facing the trials of life and are going through a rut we need to stop asking why and start asking “who” who do we go to for comfort and counsel and “what” do we know to be true?  At the end of the day, God's plan and purposes will always prevail. When your season changes remember where you are rooted.  Plant deep roots into God's word and His presence so that you can withstand any storm.

Episode 43: Cultivating Contentment Part 2 In this episode, I get to share my heart about how to grow in contentment in different areas of our lives. When you are content, you are fully surrendered and can live in peace. We are surrendered when we love the Lord with all of our hearts, soul, and mind. God has taken you this far and has continued to carry you through this season. Deuteronomy 5:6 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength Before you can be content you go through a stretching season of discomfort and discontent. Contentment begins when we get to the end our ourselves. When God is preparing our hearts we go through resistance training with our faith. God desires us to put our faith in Him and to rely on Him. The enemy will try to get you to do things on your own so that you don't have to rely on God. The first step to contentment is being a good steward of the oil that is in your hand now, the gifts that God has blessed you. Cultivating contentment requires you to feed your faith and to exercise putting your faith in our creator and our heavenly Father who has designed you and knows the plans for you. Every vision and calling requires a sacrifice. Are you willing to sacrifice your own agenda and ideas and surrender it to God and trust Him to lead you and guide you? Temporary contentment is when we put our faith into things and not God. Discontentment will come when we sacrifice our intimacy with God for other idols that we think will sustain us. Our true contentment is when we place our faith fully in God. Feel free to share what you got out of this week's episode and email us @ sheenvisions2@gmail.com.

Episode 43: Cultivating Contentment In this episode, we discuss a topic that we face every day and strive to achieve. Contentment is very rare and valuable once we achieve the ability to live in contentment. We live in a world where we constantly live in discontentment and we're striving to be fulfilled through different avenues. God wants to show us that He is the true contentment that we need. Contentment- a statement of happiness and satisfaction. 1 Timothy 6:6- Godliness with contentment is great gain. Hebrews 13:5- Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “ Never will I leave you nor forsake you.” We find true wealth in contentment with God when we have surrendered our will to Him. We need to be aware of things in our life that can become an idol. The first step is to identify what areas you are experiencing discontentment and evaluate where you have given the most authority to, and ask yourself if you have give God authority over it?  God wants to have authority over everything in your life. Wealth and knowledge is priceless and God desires us to live with wisdom. What are we passing down to our children and the next generation?  We have a responsibility to live according to God's word and to live in contentment in HIm. Start being content with where you are right now, and choose gratitude. Don't dismiss the struggle that you're going through, honor the struggle that you're experiencing because it's stretching you and propelling you into your next season. Learn from your struggles and grow from them. We have to learn to cultivate contentment and continually grow in it. There are going to be sacrifices that you make to see success in your life. Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice in order to fulfill His calling.  When we're content with what we need God will bring you the desires of your heart.  Start to evaluate where you are most discontent with and that is what you value the most, this is what you need to surrender to God and give Him the authority over.  God desires to be your contentment and your peace. Visions of Gold: What areas have God already given you the authority over? Where have you been discontent and why?

In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to build discipline and why it is so important, and how to build it. Building discipline starts with defining our ultimate goal and vision of what we are building discipline for. Before we can identify where to start we need to identify what are pain points are. Part Recap · Small disciplines every day lead to success. · Discipline starts with convictions, obedience, and being consistent in carrying out the vision. 3 things to build discipline 1)  Conviction- ask God to reveal the areas in your life why you need discipline in that area 2) Clarity- of your vision and why you're building discipline. 3) Commitment- choose to commit to building discipline in your life. Building Discipline Part 2 Before we build discipline you need to identify what your pain points are. You need to identify what areas in your life you lack discipline in and focus on that one area. Proverbs 29:17  “Discipline your children, and they will give you peace” they will bring you the delights you desire.” God desires to discipline us so that we can receive the gifts that He has for us. Discipline comes from being focused and consistent in obedience. There is a joy that comes from discipline. Building discipline is teaching yourself new habits that best serve you and your vision. Disciplined people are learners, you have to learn how to be humble and willing to learn from the seasons of life. God is our ultimate teacher. God's vision for your life is contingent on how disciplined you are. Discipline begins with your decisions. -You can be your biggest critic or your biggest coach, which one will you choose to be? 2 Timothy 1:7 For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline. God gives us POWER, LOVE, and SELF DISCIPLINE. The worldly mindset is fearful, insecure, and lacks self-control which is the opposite of God's kingdom. God's way and His kingdom principles and power come from the gifts of the Holy Spirit who gives us all that we need. Power: meaning AUTHORITY that comes from God. LOVE that overcomes fear and God's grace to do all things. SELF DISCIPLINE is having the knowledge of God and being obedient to God. Proverbs 5:23 For lack of discipline, they will die, led astray by their own great folly. Visions of Gold:  What are your biggest pain points?  Ask God to discipline you and help teach you so that you can grow in the fruit of the Holy Spirit and have self-control.  Focus on one discipline at a time to develop and commit to it. Read and Memorize Hebrews 12:11 and Psalms 37:4

In this episode, we are talking about what it looks like to build discipline. Building discipline starts when we recognize our strengths and weaknesses are. The most successful people in the world are people who have self-discipline. Self-control is a fruit of the Holy Spirit. We have to learn to develop our self-control by building our self-discipline. We cannot see the vision come to pass without having discipline. Discipline starts with surrender. We need to surrender our control to God's vision and His plan for us. We learn to commit to discipline when we have the conviction to make the commitment. Proverbs 12:1 Provers 5:23- When you lack discipline you lead others astray. Beware of ignorance, ignorance is when we choose to not take responsibility for our own perspective. We cannot move forward toward God's vision without discipline. Discipline- the practice of training people to obey rules or a code of behavior, using punishment to correct disobedience. The keyword is to OBEY, God is calling us to OBEY his commandments. 1 Samuel 15:22- Obedience is better than sacrifice There are 3 types of disciplines: Preventative, Supportive, and corrective. - These are the different categories of disciplines in every area of our life. - Obedience also means consistency. - God is calling us to be consistent in submitting to His vision in our life. - The first step to being consistent is to be accountable. - We have to start holding ourselves accountable to having daily obedience and communion with God. · God loves those He disciplines. · In order to become disciplined we need to ask ourselves to evaluate our convictions. · Small disciplines every day lead to success. · Discipline starts with convictions, obedience, and being consistent in carrying out the vision. · It is through wisdom we build discipline. · Wisdom: Making wise decisions that will bring provision and growth toward your vision. Visions of Gold: What area in your life do you need discipline in the most? 3 things to build discipline 1) Communion- ask God what areas in your life you lack discipline 2) Conviction- ask God to reveal the areas in your life why you need discipline in that area 3) Commitment- choose to commit to building discipline in your life.

In this episode, I share some personal experiences that have helped me change my perspective. Our perspective helps protect our vision and becomes our filter in how we view our life experiences. Even in the struggles of life, we are reminded of how important it is to keep a healthy perspective and not let circumstances change our perspective. We can't allow our circumstances to change our perspective from positive to negative. “Successful people do things consistently what other people do occasionally.” - Craig Groeschel Don't allow the opinions of others and failures to change what you do consistently every day. When God gives you a vision, He will give it to you in the Spirit before you will see in the flesh. Our perspective needs to be aligned with God's perspective. Beware of who you share your perspective and vision with so that they don't compromise you. God wants to trust us with more, and He starts trusting us with the little things first. You have to keep your perspective healthy by investing in it and speaking life. Your new perspective will be created when you let go of the old perspective. How important is your vision to you, are you willing to move things around in your life that no longer serve you and your vision? Visions of Gold: Write down what your new perspective will be and meditate on it. Feel free to share what you got out of this week's episode and email us @ sheenvisions2@gmail.com.

Episode 39: New year, New perspective In this new episode we start the new year with some great discussions on reflecting on the last year and taking time to digest and put everything into a new perspective. It's normal to reflect on things that you wanted to do this last year and evaluate yourself in areas of where you want to improve and what you want to work towards. A new year is a great time to start fresh and have a new perspective about your vision and your life. It's time to move into a new perspective and learn from the previous year instead of dwelling on the past. We share our personal experiences of how we had to change our perspectives and have learned through different seasons of ilfe to always put God first in every decision. Your life will begin to change when you go to God first with your decisions. We have to get rid of our old perspective and gain God's perspective over our life. Our decisions are influenced by our perspective. We can always go to God at anytime with anything and He will direct our path and guide us in our decisions. Our vision can't be fulfilled with an old perspective. Beware of having a selfish perspective and forgetting to give God glory in everything that you do. Our perspective should always be on the Lord first and not just on us. Beware of allowing other peoples point of view to compromise your perception based on their perceptions. Put the healthy boundaries around your perspective and don't allow anything to compromise you. In order to have a healthy perspective we have to protect it and have guidelines.

REALITY CHECK- how will this vision business plan benefit you? What do you really want out of it? WHY? Be completely honest about yourself and your skills and abilities. Don't do anything off the whim you must always have a plan. You have to educate yourself before you jump all in on your business plan. Before taking off and executing you have to have a prepared plan. Vision boards can be confusing when you're trying to narrow things down it is important to create a blueprint and focus on attainable goals that you can reach. In regards to your business or organization, you have to be realistic about what you're actually good at and what your strong assets are and have the tenacity to do what you're trying to do.

Episode 35: Refocus on your vision In this episode, we get to talk about how to refocus on your vision and learn how to carry out your vision when there are distractions that will try to pull you away from your vision. We have to learn how to realign our security in the Lord. Even in the midst of life and learning how to prioritize our priorities and juggling our time and energy. + When you refocus on your vision you are able to be still and listen to God's directions and not try to go and do what you just want to do. + Beware of trying to take on your vision by yourself and trying to do it on your own strength. +Sometimes when you're so occupied with working and grinding and even pursuing your vision you can get burned out and lose the joy in it, you have to learn to listen to your body and your red flags to slow down and take mental breaks. + Don't lose your joy in serving your vision, because you're not where you want to be. + God wants to develop within you what you need to be prepared with before you can see your vision come to pass. + It's important to have blinders up and put up healthy boundaries to stay focused on your vision. + If you feel stagnant or stuck it's because your focus has been on the wrong things, you have to refocus on your vision. + There is a process to your vision and God wants to prepare you in the stillness of His presence to fill you up and speak to you. + It's going to take preparation and patience to trust the process. + God will never bring you to the vision that you're not prepared for. + God loves you so much to not give you the whole picture of your vision and wants you to trust Him in the process and the little steps. + Trust the journey that is ahead of you and keep your blinders up.

In this episode, we get to talk about understanding timing and how important it is for our vision. We must learn how to be in the waiting season and trust in God's timing. You can't avoid the waiting season, it's important to be proactive while you're in the waiting season and prepare your mental state and your spiritual mindset. The Lord wants to reveal the vision for your life to you and is always working in the background we just need to trust and allow God to lead us. + During the waiting time is where we develop ourselves. + When we learn to trust God's timing we are more prepared and get to rely on God's guidance. + Timing is a form of perspective. + God is working in the background while you're in the waiting season. + We have to learn how to move and work in God's timing. + Even when we move out of God's timing and will He allows us to learn from our own seasons and come back to the beginning with Him. + Our perspective is our reality and what we choose to see and believe. + Before we can walk on the water we have to keep our eyes on Jesus and trust Him and have faith in Him and His plan. + God knows our heart and He loves us so much that He allows us to learn from doing things ahead of Him. + When you get ahead of God you can become your own God and try to do God's job when you were never meant to do it on your own.

In this episode, we interview a very special guest who has the gift of prayer and prophecy and is a pastor, leader, teacher, author, and mentor. We're excited to have Darla Lassiter on our podcast to share about these specific gifts and how to activate and develop them. We are going to talk about what the word of God teaches about them. + Have you spent time in prayer today? + Prayer is the foundation for every believer. + Prayer starts with the confession of our heart and having a conversation with the Lord. + It's about the quality of prayer and the quantity of time. + Gift of speaking in tongues is a gift that the Lord gives you. + Prayer is when we spend time with the Lord and communicate with him. + You can study scripture and verses on prayer. + Prayer is birthed from our personal relationship with the Lord. + Its the way that we pray out the perfect will of God and the enemy can't understand it. + The baptism of the Holy Spirit is evidence of the Holy Spirit. + The gift of prophecy is when you have a specific work from the Lord for someone. + The office of the prophet is different from the gift of prophecy. + All of our gifts should be filtered from the love of God and in humility. + The gifts come on us as God wills them and not just when we desire them. + Prophetic word is always uplifting and encouraging it should never be used for correction. + The prophetic word should confirm what God has already spoken to you. + It goes back to our prayer life and to make sure that it is aligned with what the Lord has already put in your heart. + If we are in a healthy place in our prayer life we will have the discernment to be able identify if it is from the Lord. Visions of Gold: Take your prayer time and be intentional in praying. Book references: “Humility” by Andrew Murray “Love the way to victory” by Kenneth Hagan

In this episode we get to talk about 2 gifts that may be more natural for people. We are talking about leadership and mercy. Leadership is very evident and can be a natural gift but also requires to be developed and matured. Mercy is where we can empathize with others and truly extend grace to everyone. The spiritual gift of leadership is closely related to the gift of administration and, interestingly, the spiritual gift of pastor/shepherd. The Greek word for the spiritual gift of leadership is proistemi. This word means to lead, to assist, to protect and to care for others. The spiritual gift of leadership is found in Romans 12:8 sandwiched between the gifts of giving and of mercy. It is placed there intentionally to show that it is a gift associated with caring for others. This is what connects it to the gift of pastor/shepherd, and what differentiates it from the gift of administration. It is more people oriented than task oriented in its application. This is not to say those with the gift of administration do not care for people, of course they do, but those with the spiritual gift of leadership focus on people and relationships more directly. In 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 Paul says to “respect those who labor among you and are over (proistemi) you in the Lord and admonish you, and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work.” The labor and work of those who were leading the believers in Thessalonica was that of tirelessly caring for their souls. Paul also connects leadership to caring for others when he asks, “If someone does not know how to manage (proistemi) his own household, how will he care for God's church?” 1 Timothy 3:5 The final gift Paul discusses in Romans 12 is the gift of mercy: “he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.” The gift of mercy is the desire and ability to identify with and comfort those who are hurting. People with this gift come alongside those who are hurting—not to lecture them, not to ask them what sin they committed that caused them to hurt, and not to even help them solve their problem. They have the desire to comfort those who are hurting. People who have this gift have the ability to discern the mood of others.

In this episode, we get to talk about 2 of the most evident spiritual gifts that most people can see, teaching and serving. They both look different but they both serve others and are strong gifts that people are drawn to. The servant gift has a passion to act first and do what's needed. The teaching gift desires to share knowledge and teach others. We will talk about the different scriptures that teach us about these specific gifts. The servant gift is something that takes time to develop just like any other gift. Some of the major characteristics of a “Servant” are practicality, diligence, and detail. They are the “Martha” in the story and want to get things done in a practical way, they will go out of their way to serve others and to make sure that things get done. Their filter is “Are you doing your share?” - Jesus is the ultimate example of a servant, he came to serve not to be served. John 13:5 “After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.” John 4:24 “ My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent and to finish his work.” The teacher's characteristics are intelligence, inquisitiveness, and philosophy. Their major passion is to know things and to help others know things. Luke 2:46 “After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.” Jesus was the ultimate teacher, always teaching us parables and always learning things constantly.

In this episode, we talk about the spiritual gift of exhortation. Exhortation is the gift of encouragement and being able to give words of affirmation. We also share stories of how to identify your gifts. + Giving words of encouragement is giving comfort to others and helping them mature in their walk with Christ. + Exhortation is something that we all need. + Our gifts need to be cultivated in order to grow and be confident in exercising our gifts. + The best way to learn more about your gift is to seek God and study that gift through scripture. + When you're operating in your gift it is meant to bless others. + People who have the gift of teaching +Exhortation in Greek is “Paraklesis” which means comfort. The Holy Spirit is known as our comforter and He guides us into all truth which brings us freedom. + Our gifts our meant to be bring God glory and bless and refresh others. + Exhortation is also used for rebuking in love and truth. It is meant to bring out the best of people. Visions of Gold- Identify what your spiritual gift and study the gift through scripture and activate it.

In this episode, we get to talk about the importance of having discernment. Without discernment, you can get distracted and get on a rabbit trail and it can lead to anxiety, and we have to be more spiritually aware of how we use our discernment.

In this episode, we talk about the importance of knowing our voice as an authority. We don't have to be misunderstood when we speak, God has called us to speak with His authority and to be bold and courageous about what we have to say. When we are secure in our identity in Christ then we can speak with His authority. Key Takeaways: We find our authority in Christ as we submit under God's authority. God didn't call us to be timid or to have a spirit of fear but to have a sound mind and to speak boldly and courageous. You have a message and what you say matters. As women, we carry a different type of influence and authority. The biggest obstacle that holds us back from using our voice as an authority is our own insecurity. You have to be self-aware of what is triggering your insecurity and get to the root of it and start implementing the opposite of where your insecurity comes from. Be careful of where you're drawing your security from, is your security in the opinion of others, or is it in God's truth? Out of the mouth, the heart speaks and what is in your heart is what you will speak out. What you speak over your life is what you will believe. Take a moment to take responsibility for the words that you speak and recognize how to speak against the voices of the enemy. Start with baby steps and start taking your thoughts captive and aligning them with the word of God. The enemy's voice has no value to you, so stop listening to what He is telling you and start sowing the word of God in your heart. When you're speaking the word of God you're already speaking with power and authority. The truth is what will set us free from our insecurities. Start meditating on what the word of God says and start sowing them into your heart. Visions of GOLD is our call to action for you to start taking steps towards your vision. You are not alone, we all need community and healthy relationships. You don't have to be discontent with where you are, you can envision a greater fulfilled life that God has intended for you to live.

God is LOVE and He gives unconditional love, He loves you just as you are when we receive GODS LOVE then we can truly be fulfilled.
