  • Possess your land.

    Random, but follow me for a sec: I think God has us all on a divine curriculum. I don't know all of its phases, but I feel like a significant wilderness period is part of it and so is the possession of His "promised land" for each of us. I bring this up because, while I thought I was out of my own personal wilderness period early this year, I think I've still been in it this whole time 🙃 And I've been studying about the promised land these past few weeks and starting to get excited about...
  • God sees you.

    I shared this message yesterday on IG and felt led (no actually pushed) to share it with you too. Please know that you are loved and seen today and everyday.
  • Don't let your money master you.

    We look at the Bible examples of idols thinking we'd never create some graven image and bow down to it like they did back in the day, but that's exactly what money is for some of us. An elaborately crafted idol made of wood. Look at what...
  • God wants you to experience radical provision.

    Let's back up for a sec. The past 3 weeks I've been sharing a series called Radical Provision but I haven't yet officially introduced what exactly "Radical Provision" is, so I wanted to do that this week, as well as share a little background into how this series came to be.

    It started with me sharing this post on Instagram last August. In it, I share the beginnings of this revelation God's been teaching me about going directly to...
  • God will provide what you decide.

    I'm gearing up for an international trip to attend a good friend's wedding & to celebrate my birthday and, in the process of selecting my Airbnb's for the birthday celebration leg of the trip, I was met with two choices: the one I really wanted & the one that was more affordable. I have a history of choosing the more affordable options when I travel but this time, I chose the one I wanted because...
  • God can use your own strategy to do it too.

    I always thought that God gave Jacob the strategy to use the peeled poplar branches to produce the speckled and spotted flocks that made him rich off his unjust boss' herds (Read the backstory in Genesis 30:25-31:13). But that may not actually be the case. It never actually says God...
  • God can do it in 24 hours.

    I just assembled another petition toward God like I shared about last week. This one was for provision I'm requesting from Him quickly as I'm now practicing petitioning Him first when I have time-based needs vs going to myself / my business first. In the process of pulling together my scriptures for this petition, The Holy Spirit brought the following stories up in the Bible...
  • Petition God for your dream budget.

    A few weeks ago, God showed me a vision of poverty as if it were a guest in my house that I had been welcoming and making provision for; basically LIVING with. Poverty has been my roommate! After seeing that, I not-so-kindly told poverty to...
  • Ask God to open your eyes to your wealth.

    I recently found a new walking trail about a 3-minute drive from my house that takes you along this scenic route along water and nature. It truly feels like a gift that somehow I'm only just finding out about after living here for 7 years. How is that possible you may ask. It's possible because, until recently, the entire time I've lived here I...
  • God says you’re worthy.

    I can't explain it but there's just something about reminding yourself of what the body & blood of Christ did for you, by taking communion, that cleanses your conscience from condemnation (aka an unworthy mindset). It's just like how God provided this method for healing the...
  • You've prayed enough, now speak it into existence.

    I was studying Exodus recently and this passage stuck out to me because there's nowhere in the text, before Moses makes this statement, where God actually tells Moses that "they'll never see these Egyptians again" or that He will "fight for them". God did tell Moses that the Egyptians would chase after them & that He'd use this to display His glory to them (verse 4), but that was it. And it wasn't until...
  • God’s Word is the "income" you need

    Trying to understand what my baby niece is talking about sometimes can be almost impossible (and super cute of course 🥰). She'll be running her mouth saying all the things and I can tell SHE knows what she's talking about, but I can't understand a thing. Obviously it's because, at her current stage of development, she's still learning our language & how to form words into fully coherent sentences. One day, during one of our "conversations", I realized that this must be what we sound like to...
