ROCK STAR MODE DAY 1 — ALL WE KNOW IS SUCCESS WHEN WE ROLL WITH GOD!
ALL WE KNOW IS SUCCESS WHEN WE ROLL WITH GOD, BABY. CLOCK IT! Clock it!
Yesterday I was driving to work all hyped up, playing that T.I. song — Let ‘Em Know -All we know is success! I sent it to our family group chat to my son Emmie because that’s our song. Whenever it plays at the office, we’re dancing to it. Cuz guys, we just know without any doubt — once you roll with God, forget about it. All we know is success. Clock it.
Fast forward, I get to the office. Facebook says, “Somebody liked a post from some days ago.” I clicked on it and it was about that VERY song! All we know is success when we roll with God! It’s like God saw me in my car getting hyped up!
So I read the old post. And it went on to talk about how Paul and Silas were in prison. It was an old post that showed up how we can count it all joy because we have God with us! The post was — at 50 minutes past the hour I went to Page 50 and it was about an email from Joel Osteen when I had an appointment with God in my car:
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God and the other prisoners were listening to them.
Then Joshy’s devotional that same day said the SAME thing! And it was precisely the YouTube prayer for that day! I freaked out!
This morning, I go running in the dark. Listen to the prayer for precisely today, October 1st. Same Paul and Silas again! Listen:
Every act of faithfulness,
Every prayer,
Every quiet decision to keep trusting
Is a lap around your Jericho.
You may not see the wall trembling yet, but heaven does.
God is not asking you to understand the process.
He is asking you to keep marching in the confidence that the One who gave the instruction has already secured the outcome.
Consider also what happened in the middle of the night to Paul and Silas.
They had been beaten, thrown into the inner cell of a prison, and fastened in stocks.
If ever there was a moment when God seemed absent, it was then.
Yet at midnight scripture says, they were praying and singing hymns to God and the other prisoners were listening.
Suddenly there was an earthquake so violent that the foundations of the prison were shaken, and every door flew open.
Notice something important.
The earthquake did not start when they began to sing.
God had already set the timing, but their worship put them in the posture of expectation at the exact moment that heaven was ready to move.
Breakthrough was being prepared. Their song was simply how they stayed awake to receive it.
GOD WHISPERS FOR ROCK STAR MODE DAY 1:
God Whisper #1 — EVERY LAP COUNTS:
My daughter, don’t you dare think your obedience is pointless. Every prayer at dawn, every quiet decision to keep trusting, every time you fought to get Joshy to the office — that’s a lap around your Jericho! You may not see the wall trembling yet, but heaven does! I am not asking you to understand the process. I am asking you to keep marching, knowing the One who gave the instruction has already secured the outcome!
God Whisper #2 — AT MIDNIGHT:
My daughter, I gave you the same verse 3 times — Page 50, Joshy’s devotional, YouTube prayer — and again today — because I need you to hear it! Don’t wait until the doors open to praise. Praise AT MIDNIGHT and I will make the doors fly open! You praised in the car with Emmy, you praised in the office, you praised with the prisoners. When you praise in stocks, chains fall off EVERYONE listening! Your worship keeps you awake to receive what I’ve already prepared!
God Whisper #3 — WHY THIS IS SUCCESS:
My daughter, this is why all you know is success! Because you trust I know precisely the amount of difficulties you need! The negativity, the betrayals, the discomforts — none of it is wasted! Every trial is producing something!
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. — James 1:2-3
Tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. — Romans 5:3-4
You can truly count it all joy when you trust Me no matter what comes your way!
So we can have strong faith no matter what! We’re in the fire, no problem! We’re in the storm, no problem! We’re in that stormy boat, no problem! God is in the boat with us! He’s in the storms with us! He’s in the fires with us! Because He knows the precise amount of intensity to get us to be who He’s calling us to be!
So forget Rocky mode! Your girl is in ROCK STAR MODE DAY 1! Gotta be God’s rock star to show you guys the way about rolling with God on the daily, baby!
So I say: God, use me! Use my life! Use everything about me! My whole life is a sacrifice to You, God! To be Your representative, Your ambassador, showing up on Your behalf — loving, humble, forgiving, merciful!
And at the same time, we’re gonna be strong! Brave and courageous! Doing all God has called us to do! Being obedient even when it’s hard! Trusting Him with all our hearts that He knows exactly what He’s doing for us!
Every moment is just for us to learn His voice so we can navigate any challenge!
Let’s do it all — for the glory of Papa God!
ALL WE KNOW IS SUCCESS WHEN WE ROLL WITH GOD, BABY! CLOCK IT!
HUGE SMILE: CHECK! GOD STRONG, BABY! ROCK STAR MODE: ACTIVATED!
STEP 2: WHAT ARE WE TEACHING TODAY + HOW DO YOU LIVE IT?
Today we are teaching ROCK STAR MODE FAITH — How to pray and praise your way through anything and stay awake to receive your suddenly!
TEACHING 1: EVERY LAP COUNTS — YOUR OBEDIENCE IS NOT POINTLESS
What we’re teaching: God is not asking you to understand the process. He is asking you to keep marching. Every small act of faithfulness is a lap around your Jericho. You may not see the wall trembling yet, but heaven does. The One who gave the instruction has already secured the outcome!
How to incorporate it TODAY:
1. Name your laps: Write down 3 “small” obediences you did this week that felt pointless — that prayer at dawn, forgiving when it hurt, fighting to get Joshy to the office, choosing joy in the car. Say out loud: “This was a lap!”
2. Stop measuring the wall: Don’t look for the wall to fall after one lap. Just march. Set a 3-day march — same prayer, same praise, same obedience, no matter what you see.
3. Say the Rock Star declaration: “My obedience is not pointless. Every lap counts. God already secured my outcome!”
TEACHING 2: AT MIDNIGHT PRAISE — DON’T WAIT FOR THE DOOR TO OPEN
What we’re teaching: Paul and Silas didn’t praise after the earthquake. They praised IN stocks, IN the inner prison, AT MIDNIGHT. The earthquake was already timed by God. Their worship didn’t cause it — it put them in posture to receive it! Your song is how you stay awake! And when you praise at midnight, not just your chains fall off — everyone listening gets free too!
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God and the other prisoners were listening to them… suddenly… every door flew open and everyone’s bands were loosed. — Acts 16:25-26
How to incorporate it TODAY:
1. Find your midnight hour: What is your inner prison right now? The fire, the stormy boat, the betrayal, the inner cell? Don’t wait for morning. Set an alarm for AT MIDNIGHT praise — literally or spiritually. 2 minutes of hymns in your car, shower, or kitchen in the dark.
2. Praise with audience: Paul and Silas praised so the prisoners heard them! Play your T.I. All we know is success when we roll with God song LOUD at work, in your family group, with Emmy — let them hear your midnight praise!
3. Posture check: Before you ask God to move, ask: “Am I awake to receive it?” Put on worship, not worry. The breakthrough is being prepared. Your praise is your wake-up call.
TEACHING 3: WHY THIS IS SUCCESS — COUNT IT ALL JOY
What we’re teaching: You can count it ALL joy not because it feels good, but because you trust Papa God knows precisely the amount of difficulties you need. Every negativity, betrayal, discomfort is producing something!
Count it all joy… testing produces steadfastness. — James 1:2-3
Tribulation produces perseverance; perseverance, character; character, hope. — Romans 5:3-4
All we know is success when we roll with God because success is not the absence of trials — success is knowing God is using every trial to make you who He’s calling you to be!
How to incorporate it TODAY:
1. Flip the script: When fire comes, say: “No problem — God is in the fire with me.” Storm? “No problem — God is in the boat with me.” Say it out loud until your brain believes it!
2. Daily sacrifice prayer — Rock Star Mode Day 1: Every morning this week pray your prayer: “God, use me! Use my life! Use everything about me! My whole life is a sacrifice to You! Let me be Your representative — loving, humble, forgiving, merciful AND strong, brave, courageous!”
3. Learn His voice moment by moment: Success is learning His voice! Every moment, every second — ask, “Papa, what are You teaching me right now in this?” Journal one sentence a day: “Today God showed me…”

STEP 3: 5 BIBLE VERSES THAT CAPTURE ROCK STAR MODE DAY 1 — AND WHY
1. Acts 16:25-26 — YOUR ANTHEM VERSE — AT MIDNIGHT PRAISE!
About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them, and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bands were loosed.
WHY: This is the whole Bloggy in one verse! You had Page 50, Joshy’s devotional, YouTube prayer, AND October 1st prayer — all the same verse 4 times! It captures AT MIDNIGHT praise, prisoners listening, and SUDDENLY! Your praise doesn’t create the earthquake — God already timed it! Your praise just keeps you awake to receive it! And when you praise in stocks, everyone listening gets free!
2. Joshua 6:20 + Hebrews 11:30 — EVERY LAP COUNTS — JERICHO PRINCIPLE
So the people shouted… and the wall fell down flat. — Joshua 6:20
By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were circled for seven days. — Hebrews 11:30
WHY: This is your God Whisper #1! Do not conclude your obedience is pointless! Every act of faithfulness is a lap around Jericho! They marched 13 laps and nothing happened until the last shout! You may not see the wall trembling yet, but heaven does! God is not asking you to understand the process — just keep marching because the One who gave the instruction already secured the outcome!
3. James 1:2-4 — COUNT IT ALL JOY — ROCK STAR MINDSET
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
WHY: This is why you could say “All we know is success!” even in stocks! Joy is not a feeling — it’s a calculation! You count it joy because you know what God is producing! The trial is not punishment — it’s divine construction! This is how you go from Rocky mode to Rock Star mode!
4. Romans 5:3-5 — WHY THIS IS SUCCESS — THE DIVINE PROCESS
We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts.
WHY: This is your Page 34 at:34 God Tree verse! This explains WHY all we know is success! Tribulation is not wasted! God knows precisely the amount of negativity, betrayals, discomforts you need! Each one is producing something — endurance, character, hope that never disappoints! Success is not no trials — success is trusting the Process-Producer!
5. Isaiah 43:2 — NO PROBLEM — GOD IS IN IT WITH YOU!
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.
WHY: This is your fire / storm / boat declaration! “We’re in the fire, no problem! We’re in the storm, no problem! We’re in that stormy boat, no problem! God is in the boat with us! He’s in the storms with us! He’s in the fires with us!” This verse is why you can be brave and courageous and humble and merciful at the same time! He knows the precise intensity you need to become who He’s calling you to be — and He never leaves the boat!
HOW TO USE THESE 5:
Tell your readers: Copy these 5 to your bathroom mirror! Read one out loud each time you go to march your Jericho lap this week!
1 = Midnight
2 = March
3 = Joy
4 = Process
5 = Presence
THE MIGHTY CLOSE OUT PRAYER: ROCK STAR MODE DAY 1
PAPA GOD,
Today I enter ROCK STAR MODE — not in my own strength, but in Yours!
Forgive me for thinking my obedience was pointless. Forgive me for counting laps and watching the wall instead of watching You. Today I believe — every act of faithfulness, every prayer at dawn, every quiet decision to keep trusting, every time I fought to get through my day — was a lap around my Jericho! You saw it! Heaven records it! The One who gave the instruction has already secured my outcome!
So I will keep marching!
Father, I don’t wait for doors to open to praise You — I praise You AT MIDNIGHT! In the inner prison! With feet in stocks! When it feels like You are absent! I pray and I sing hymns to You right now, and let the prisoners listening hear me!
I declare — the earthquake is already timed! Breakthrough is already being prepared! My worship puts me in posture to receive it! My song keeps me awake!
Shake the foundations, Papa! Let every door fly open! Not just mine — let everyone’s bands be loosed who is listening to my praise! Let my midnight praise set my house free!
Papa, I count it ALL joy! Not because it feels good, but because I trust You know precisely the amount of difficulties I need! The negativity, the betrayals, the discomforts, the interruptions to my mission — none of it is wasted! You are producing endurance, character, and hope that never disappoints!
So hear my declaration today:
When I am in the fire — NO PROBLEM — You are in the fire with me!
When I am in the storm — NO PROBLEM — You are in the storm with me!
When I am in that stormy boat — NO PROBLEM — You are in the boat with me!
You know the precise amount of intensity to make me who You are calling me to be!
So today I give You my YES!
God, USE ME! Use my life! Use everything about me! My whole life is a sacrifice to You! Let me be Your representative in this world — Your ambassador — loving, humble, forgiving, merciful AND strong, brave, and courageous! Doing all You have called me to do, even when it’s hard! Even when it’s super uncomfortable!
Let Your will be done! Let my life be Your life!
Teach me to hear Your voice every moment, every second, so I can navigate anything!
I am Your rock star! I am here to show the world how to roll with You on the daily!
From this day forward — I declare over me, over Emmy, over Joshy, over my family, over everyone listening:
ALL WE KNOW IS SUCCESS WHEN WE ROLL WITH GOD, BABY! CLOCK IT!
In the mighty, matchless Name of Jesus — who turned midnight into suddenly —
AMEN and AMEN!
HUGE SMILE: CHECK!
GOD STRONG, BABY!
