“WE’RE NOT LUCKY; WE’RE BLESSED!”
That was me to my sweetie pie daughter, Ember, yesterday when she asked me to wish her luck on a test. “We’re rolling with God! That means His favor, wisdom, and strength follow us wherever we go. We just have to walk in His confidence and boldness, knowing He is with us every step of the way! Just pray and ask Him to be with you!” I further explained.
That’s where I want us all; KNOWING WE HAVE ACCESS TO GOD ON A 24/7 BASIS! We’re never alone! Like I’m so thrilled about a challenge that has come up for me. I see God pushing me out of my comfort zone to tackle some severe weaknesses I have going on. I love how my daughter, Ember, called me out, saying that I have a reputation for being lazy and procrastinating. Like how long I’ve been saying I need to work on my next book! I see my guy Devon Franklin being this Rockstar for God, producing faith-based movies, writing books, and he’s all over the place promoting God. I want to do that, too! BUT I MUST UP MY WORK GAME! And this challenge is God’s way of pushing me to be better. God corrects those He loves! (SMILE) What areas can you improve in? Ask God to help you!
This challenge has also seriously increased my faith in God (HUGE SMILE). He keeps revealing glimmers of His invisible Presence that’s always with me. Last night, I had a document of 107 pages to review. I was like, ‘Seriously, God!’ and I had a fun time laughing with Him about it. That was until He took be to all the numbers lined up together from page one to read 1/107. Of all the numbers to line up together, 11 and 7 showed up when I’ve written so many times that whenever 11 and 7 line up together that’s my little wink from God that His Presence is with me. This lined up too perfectly to be some ordinary coincidence, it was God HIMSELF saying, ‘NIK, I AM WITH YOU!!!’
This gave me such peace and joy knowing that I’m not handling this overwhelming challenge alone, My God is with me. That gives me the peace that surpasses all understanding. I simply go to God on a moment-by-moment basis asking for His guidance. He then directs me through my thoughts, nudges, and cues as to what He would have me to do. He doesn’t give me the next ten steps, though, just one at a time, and I confidently follow His leading. I truly can’t get over His love and intimate involvement with every aspect of my life!
But I don’t want to feel all this good loving from God by myself! Give your heart to Him! Say, ‘God, I want to roll with You on the daily!’ Then start having your alone times with Him to hear what He has to say specifically to you! Like that 1107 showing up was His way of communicating with me because I have learned His voice. He wants that kind of relationship with you, too, where you know His voice and can feel His constant direction. I promise a life of victory, despite the numerous failures and mistakes, knowing God even uses them for our good! He said to me today, “If I love you, that means I love both your strengths and weaknesses.” HIS LOVE IS TOO MUCH!!!
