I told God “Next week”. Did you ever tell God “Wait”, “not now”, “maybe later”, or just a big fat “I don't think so”? I just told God, in church, “next week”. Yes, that is correct. In church. Let me back up and explain so you can really see why I am confessing to you right now. I was talking to God recently in the last several months and asking him to speak to me. I wanted Him to lay on my heart of what He wants out of me; my next steps and how to serve Him. I had nothing particular in my mind of what to do or even my own ideas. I was opened to what He wants. Or was I? I asked Him to let me know what he wants, what He desires, AND I asked him to give me the ears to hear as well. The ears to hear is very important the heart to understand is very important. I prayed for both things since I didn't want to miss it. Also, my prayers for these things have been a bit ongoing over the last couple of months. I don't know if I wasn't quite settling down enough, quieting myself enough, or could it possibly be that I just didn't like what I heard him and laid on my heart? So, here it comes. One day in church recently I was sitting quietly, and I was having my butterfly thoughts fly in, AKA Holy Spirit whispers. My heart was prepared and softened and my ears were attentive to what He had to say. God's instructions came. It was a simple knowing in my heart and the request was small. I could have rejoiced knowing I pray specifically, He speaks specifically, I receive a knowing in my heart, a request from Him, and we move on to our next step. I could have rejoiced in that. I should have rejoiced in that. I don't know what happens in our human limited brain and knowledge, and all of our feelings and stuff, but I almost immediately said “how about next week God”? What!? What did I just do?! I have been asking God for months of what I need to do, what He desires my next step to be knowing that the Bible says be faithful in the small things and then greater things will come. I know. Some of you are thinking, “why do that?”, or some of you are thinking, “yeah, I have been there”. I am confessing right now. I have limited knowledge, I have limited understanding against what He knows, understands, and merely of who HE is. I do know this and also know He is constant; He is mighty and He is all knowing. If He takes care of the smallest of animals and provides, He will do for me and you. He knows what is best. For everyone. He knows what we need beyond what we think we need. He knows what our wants will do to us sometimes and not for us. He is all knowing. He is all powerful and wants a relationship with us. And He will not steer us wrong when we listen. Did I immediately obey after I even knew I was wrong and was convicted in my heart. Sadly, no, however, a day or so after that, I prayed and sure enough, the topic wrapped around again and came to my heart? Indeed, it did. Did I obey. Indeed, I did. You see, God does want us to have a relationship with Him. A real one. A personal one. He wants us to communicate with Him and hear Him with Holy Spirit whisperings and as He speaks through His Word. Obeying Him and His word is a part of our personal relationship with Him and a part that sometimes might not make total sense to us, but requires steps taken in faith in Him. Why does obedience matter? Here are just 3 good reasons. God's instructions are for our good. He wants good things for us, and He knows what is best. It keeps us attuned to His Spirit's leading. Blessings follow obedience. God wants to bless us, and the obedience opens the door to His blessings. Psalms 119:32 True transformation occurs when we act on what we have heard. James 1:22 compares hearing God's Word without obeying it to glancing at our reflection in a mirror and forgetting. True heart transforming comes from be a doer and not just a listener. Here's to our spiritual ears being attuned, our heart being softened and prepared for true transformation taking place continuously in our lives.

Happy Wednesday,In today's video, I share a few tips to identify if you are in a season of transition and what to do while you wait. I've learned that a huge mistake we tend to make is; once we feel the impression or believe we received revelation on what's next, we run ahead of God. There is wisdom in waiting and moving at God's perfect time versus being led by our feelings.Scripture reference“but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”Isaiah 40:31 KJV“I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.”Psalm 32:8 KJVSupport(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/BettyeNi...)

God calls us to be in relationship with Him. Too many times we are stuck between our busyness and expectations. Who holds the key to your heart? When you hang out daily with the world's expectations, floundering and wondering what the day will bring, your heart becomes divided amongst the comparisons you encounter. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://facebook.com/groups/thewomenofimpact The depth of jealousy, frustration, not enough, and the feeling of being left behind covers your heart. As the day awakens, do you have the key that opens your heart? Very rarely do we ask this question. It’s not a question that we would typically ask anyway. But the crazy thing is that God truly does desire our hearts. But we’re too focused on everything else that distracts us from him. We’re very quick to jump to opportunities to grow our business, to network for our church, or volunteer for the community. What about networking for our hearts? When was the last time you said 'yes' to you? And not just yes to anything. But yes to opening up your heart, opening up the door, and letting God flood you with his passion for your life. Allowing him to be present in your daily responsibilities and piercing your heart with His love and grace! Wait a minute! I talked to God daily. I have my morning coffee with Him. I pray. Oh, and when I need Him, I call out to Him. That’s all great. However, is He truly leading your life? Or are you only using God in case of an emergency? If there is a crisis, you call on God. If the day is stuff you handle, then you're in control. The K.I.S.S. ~ Who holds the key to your heart? God wants you to live not by the world’s expectations or even your own expectations. You don’t know what’s best for you! Only God does! And that's a sucker punch! You don't know what's best for you. Why do you think you get tangled up in these messes? Why do you wrestle so often with fear that you have a nickname for it? Why do keep making the same errors or find yourself in the same predicaments? I’m guilty of thinking I’m doing everything right. Leading my life as though I knew exactly what God wanted for me. How can we know what God wants when we don't include Him in our every day? "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." ~ Proverbs 4:23 We tend to guard our heart, primarily from hurt. We avoid uncomfortable situations with our spouse and friends. We hide the truth of what's really happening, so we don't have to own it or even change it. We suppress our struggles/addictions/challenges and keep them to ourselves with the thought that this is best for us. That is one way to guard your heart. Yet not the way God intends for you to stand guard. Your heart is the wellspring of your actions. So above all else, guard your heart for everything comes from your heart. It's the center of your world, the heartbeat (literally and figuratively). So the question remains...Who holds the key to your heart? REFLECTION: Throughout the day and into this week, reflect on who or what holds the key to your heart? Is your heart being governed by money or fame? Is your heart being controlled by jealousy or bitterness? Is your heart being trained daily to walk by faith while putting on the armor of God? Wait just a minute. I hear knocking.

But there are countless miracles in nature and taking place in our lives on a daily, constant basis, and if we deny these things, are we really being smart, or being blind to a far greater perception of reality?

Theology For the Rest of Us | Quick Answers to the Questions About God and the Bible
Many people have asked, "Why didn't God send Jesus to Earth sooner?" It seems that God waited too long. Why did God choose to send Him at that particular time in human history? In this episode, Kenny highlights Galatians 4:4, which tells us that Jesus came when the "fullness of time" had come. Kenny makes the case that, in essence, God waited for the perfect moment in human history; the specific time period that would make the most sense for the rapid expansion of the Gospel message. Then, Kenny expounds upon the things that made it more likely for the Gospel to spill over into Gentile nations. 1- The nation of Israel needed to be prepared to receive the Messiah in the way God wanted them to receive Him. God was waiting for there to be a culture of "expectancy" amongst the Jewish people. 2- God wanted people of Jewish decent to be living around the world because they would be the initial conduits for the Gospel to spread. 3- God waited for the development of Roman civil affairs and physical infrastructure that would allow for the rapid expansion of the Gospel message and the circulation of Apostolic writing. The primary elements that contributed to this were: the Pax Romana (time of peace), the Roman trade roads, and the establishment of a common trade language.
