“YOU CAN GET OFF MY BACK NOW!”
That was my daughter, Julie, calling to let me know that she has registered for her college classes for this upcoming fall semester. That’s how we do, boo! Instead of completing her 12th-grade year in regular high school, she will attend on-campus college classes, baby! I’m honestly here in astonishment at how God made this happen. Just one morning, in my spirit, He said I should email the school to ask if Julie would qualify for this program. The response was immediate that not only is she eligible, but the meeting to discuss it would be in exactly one week.
The crazy part was that I’m here in Nigeria, and my daughter and the school are in the US, but God alerted me in my spirit that I should personally send that email off to the school. Such love and attention He gives my family and me that my entire life is becoming this beautiful conversation with Him. ‘Nik, don’t trust Julie to find out about this program, you do it yourself!!!’ is what I felt Him say STRONGLY to me that morning, and now my daughter is registered to go to college one year earlier, free of charge, in the US! All glory goes to God!
It’s same thing with all these challenges that I’ve been up against lately tackling. I feel God directing me on a moment-by-moment basis what He would have me to do in my spirit. That strong prompting He gave me that morning regarding Julie’s college program is the way I feel Him telling me to do stuff. ‘Nik, send this email. Make this phone call. Have Ember (my other daughter) take care of this.’ To the point that I have FULL confidence in God, AND I WANT YOU HERE WITH ME.
“The LORD Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” – Exodus 14:14
We CAN relax (not carelessly or lazily!) knowing that God is behind the scenes of our lives fighting on our behalf. My hubby and I are enjoying some Bible verses every morning, and this one has been my fav:
“The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.” – 1 Corinthians 10:13
Our God is faithful! It’s just for us to involve Him in every aspect of our lives. Like these appointments with God with my husband, again it was God nudging me to include hubs in my morning times with Him, and I’m enjoying hubs and God on an entirely new level! Wink! Wink! We don’t go wrong with God!!! Seek Him in every moment, always asking, ‘God, what would You have me to do here?’ This is how He guides our lives on the very best paths with Him!
