Awakening Your Creativity

A few weeks ago, I held an intimate creative session for the Women's Ministry at our church. God had placed on my heart that I was to speak over our women and that He would use me to stir and awaken the creativity of each of them. This is a direct recording of the impartation that was poured out on that day. I encourage you to pray and ask God to open your heart and your mind as He stirs and awakens the creative power that is living and breathing on the inside of you.

Creating Your Space

I can’t tell you how much I have loved being able to take the time, and create a space in my home, just for me. I just need a space where I can be myself. A decorative space that reflects me and what I love. I believe every creative entrepreneur and artist should have a space in their home that represents them and one that is conducive for creativity...a space that will inspire them and all who encounter it. Take me, for example. If you could pry me open and take look inside of my mind, it would pretty much look like my home office. Full of patterns, pops of whim and color, accurately describe what’s going on in my head at any given moment. You, too, can have a space like this, and on a budget! You'll just have to get creative! Today on the Whatever is Lovely Podcast, I am going to tell you exactly why you need a creative space and how you can achieve one on the tightest of budgets.

Everybody goes through phases in their life that they may not understand. Sometimes, things can seem completely unfair. You can even feel like nobody understands your life as you navigate through the unknown, including the questions you may have about why you must endure certain things. It even becomes increasingly difficult with things like social media. We are bombarded with the highlights of the lives of others. These things can play on our emotions, often leading to a life of discontentment. However, we aren't called to live in the land of discontent! We can't allow what we perceive to determine how we posture our hearts throughout the timing of God. This podcast speaks to those who struggle with wanting to rush God's timing and how we should posture ourselves, as believers, during the wait.

The perfect relationship balance is to have peers, those we pour into, and those who pour into us. We should always set ourselves in a position to receive impartation from others by gleaning from the things they have walked through that we have yet to accomplish. The power of impartation was greatly demonstrated with Jesus and His disciples. If you want to grow and glean from those whom God places in your life, this podcast will help you to tap into the full power of positioning yourself for impartation.

Have you ever received a prophetic word concerning your life? Chances are, if you've walked with God for any length of time, you probably have! Prophetic words are meant to edify the body for those of us who are believers. They are spoken through prophets, or those who can flow in the prophetic gifting. Prophetic words bring correction, encouragement, and direction, just to name a few. It's great to receive a word of direction when you feel that your life is in complete disarray. When you are feeling down, and God sends a word of encouragement, it's just the thing you needed to hear that helps you hold on just a little while longer. Did you know that when we receive prophetic words that we, as believers, have a personal responsibility? This podcast is a necessity for any believer who is walking out, or waiting to walk out the words from Heaven that hang over their lives. My question to you today is, what are you waiting for?

When I was given the topic of “How to Pick a Mate for Life” for Love Jones ’12, I had absolutely no idea what to talk about! All I knew was my personal experience in being single and celibate for six years. I was the single parent of two boys, and i had made more mistakes in dating than I’d like to admit. In typical God fashion, I worried and stressed about my message too much and in His time, He began to speak to me ever so clearly about how He wanted me to address this topic. I talk about fruit, ethylene gas and Samson & Delilah. It sounds all over the place but I weaved it all together. If you are single, dating and or want to be married, then this message is for you.

I love how God is so amazing at confirming His word. Because He is the Masterful Creator, everything about Him can be seen through His creation. When I read the word, it often sends me into a tailspin of how’s and why’s. I was always that child that wanted to know how things worked. What nuts, bolts and gears were behind a thing. Even as an adult, I am like that curious child, always asking my Heavenly Father question after question. How, God? Why, God? When, God? I’m sure He gets an absolute kick out of it. At the same time, we are called to believe in the unseen. Our faith in Him is a direct contradiction to what our human eyes and minds experience on a day to day basis. I love God because even in my questioning curiosity, He manages to reveal things to me that my wondering mind can comprehend. He knows how to speak to us in the exact way that we need it. Here in my message titled “The Mind of Faith,” I explain how our human wonderment can believe in an invisible God. Take a listen.
