American Christianity & Its Idol: Marriage & Relationships
American Christianity & Its Idol: Marriage & Relationships
Image from google image search. DISCLAIMER: I know this post will probably not be popular but I do not write posts to become popular. I only write what He lays on my heart to write. Please pray over and consider what the Spirit has led me to write in this post! He truly wrecked my heart while I was writing it, so it is a word for me as well! I am not against Godly relationships or marriage…

There was a time I could not say this at all & felt like God had stripped everything from me. That season of testing & preparation was no joke! The whole time I was like Lord, You trying to kill me lol?! Though He slays me, yet will I trust Him! But seriously, now I can say thank You Jesus & mean it with all of my heart! Now I see He knew what He was doing! He was stripping me of my plans & ways and giving me His identity & setting me on a firm & solid foundation! The Holy Spirit was just ministering to me the other night about how He can see everything I can't see. I can only see my past and my present, but He sees it all. He is moving in ways in the supernatural that we can't even comprehend. He will only reveal so much to us about His plans for us, and after that it's up to us to trust Him, be obedient to His instructions, and have faith that He knows what is best for our lives and will bring things to pass He has promised in due time. Have faith that Jesus knows what He is doing. Even when you don't understand, He is working behind the scenes in ways you can't possibly imagine for your good and for His glory! (Romans 8:28) The Word says that: "A man's steps are of the Lord; how then can a man understand his own way?" Proverbs 20:24 NKJV We can't understand unless He brings clarity. And eventually He will in His timing. PaPa doesn't delight in keeping things hidden from His kids, but He does it to grow us up in Him so that we will know how to walk by faith and not by sight. Trust that His plans are so much better than yours. Rest in His wisdom and truth. Surrender your plans to Him, and trust me, once you have submitted to His will for your life, you will begin the greatest adventure of all time. 👍🏽👌🏽❤
Look for Christ and you will find Him. And with Him, everything else.
C.S. Lewis (via thevirtuousgirl)
I know how hard it is to talk about Jesus. It’s the most awkward conversation you’ll ever have. If you even say the whole Gospel out loud right now, it sounds like the craziest thing you’ve ever heard. But the Gospel isn’t some ‘speech’ you unload on people and then ‘leave it in God’s hands.’ Blasting people with theology is like serving icing for dessert. Evangelism is your whole life, it’s sharing your home, it’s enduring patiently, it’s being a human being, it’s availability, it’s sharing Jesus through who you are; not perfectly, but passionately. Yes, invite them to church and to that revival and talk about your faith and your testimony, but once you dare to go there, just know you might be rejected immediately, a lot, and aggressively. Except secretly they can’t deny there must be something to it, because you’re not just a billboard: you’re an overflow of a barely containable supernatural miracle.

Hello Ashley, My name is Nia. I would like some advice in regards to fasting. I would like to do a serious fast and try grow closer to God and understand what His desire for me is. It is difficult to begin now with all of the holiday treats and good food LOL, but it is something serious that I still would like to do. How do you recommend that I approach this without compromising my health? I am a college student who is often on the move so I get hungry easily.
Hey Nia! Please forgive me for not responding sooner. Been crazy busy! But thank you so much for messaging me! I am glad that you want to draw closer to the Lord and prayer and fasting is one of the best and fastest ways to do that! I am just going to share with you what the Lord has led me to do when it comes to fasting, especially while in college. I am going to be honest with you, regardless of what kind of fast that you do, hunger is going to be evident and something that is unavoidable; especially in the beginning when you are just starting out. However, the spiritual benefits of fasting are so BEYOND worth it! I can definitely pass up on some food any day if it means having more of the power of the Holy Spirit lol! But in all seriousness, I am going to share with you the biblical way to fast.
The examples in the Word that we see in regards to fasting are numerous (Matthew 4:1-11, Matthew 6:16-18, Esther 4:16, Luke 2:37, Nehemiah 1:4, 1 Samuel 14:24-30). The examples that our Lord Jesus set, the prophets set, the apostles, and the early Christians set were to not eat or drink anything while fasting. Our Lord did this for 40 days and 40 nights. Some only did it for several days or weeks at a time. Some people may think this is too drastic to fast in this manner, however that is the example that is set in the Word of God, which means we are to follow it as well, and there are wonderful spiritual blessings that come when fasting in this manner. We fast in this manner to kill/deny our flesh and so that the Holy Spirit is able to increase on the inside of us, IF we are also praying and studying our bible as we are fasting. He can’t increase in us if we are not putting anything in! We have to give Him something to work with.
If you have health issues, like you stated above, definitely use wisdom and be led by God in what to do. Since this is new for you and you have health concerns, it may be wise to start out fasting once a week for either half the day or for several hours at a time; drinking just water and/or juice. Then, if the Lord leads, maybe once a week; fasting for the whole day, but drinking only water and eating nothing. Maybe the next week fasting once or twice and for several hours a day with no food and no water. And let the Lord lead you on how to go on from there. That is simply a suggestion for you; not something you have to do, but I thought that may help give you an idea on where to begin.
When I first started out, I fasted one day a week and I only drank water, then I increased it to several times a week and decreased the amount of water I drank until I could handle not having anything. However I am not saying you have to do that. That’s just how the Lord led me.
I also suggest that whatever day you choose, it is probably best that you do it on a day when you are not busy and are able to stay at home for the majority of the day. I only share this as an example, but I usually choose Sundays or a day I don’t have to go to work or school, because that way I have plenty of time to spend time with God and study the Word. It is vital that you spend time in the bible reading and studying for the majority of the time that you are fasting. The reason being is because the Word of God is our spiritual food (Matthew 4:4). It is what we feast on and rely on during fasting instead of natural food. Being in His Word will help you to not focus on the hunger so much.
I also suggest consecrating yourself as well. It is hard to hear God speak to you (and He will speak to you so clearly when you fast and pray!) when you have distractions all around you. When fasting it is best to turn the entertainment off (tv, movies, music (unless worship music), social media, games, etc.) and let go of any other things that may hinder you from hearing Him. I’m not trying to be legalistic, but simply sharing that because if you want to actually hear the Lord speak to you, you have to let go of anything worldly that may hinder that from happening. Our Lord is a Holy God and He desires for His children to approach Him in that manner.
Definitely do not be intimidated by the hunger you may feel because eventually you will be able to get to a place in your walk with the Lord where the Spirit of God will keep you so secure that you won’t even notice that you are hungry at all. That takes time, but it does eventually happen after making a lifestyle out of fasting. Keep pushing through with the fasting and watch your fire for God burn even hotter and relationship with Him get stronger and stronger! Hope this info helps you love! I will be praying that God will lead you as you are fasting and that you will see amazing spiritual growth like never before in this year! I am excited for you! <3
I'm super excited! It's 1/1/16! It's a brand new year that the Lord has blessed us to see & to get things started off right, I've made my way back to old faithful!! And as you can see, this devotional is getting worn out lol. This is seriously the BEST devotional hands down I've ever read! I've switched to other devotionals over the years but I keep coming back to this one cause there's something about it! That man of God was truly anointed & filled with the Spirit! Shout out to my spiritual momma for introducing it to me 3 Christmases ago! I definitely recommend to all believers!!! #devotionals #christiangrowth #christianmaturity #oswaldchambers #myutmostforhishighest
A Word of Encouragement
I posted this on facebook, but also felt led to post it on here! This is my last post for 2015. This year has been such an interesting adventure with PaPa & one I've been very thankful for. If I learned anything it was how vital it is to step out on faith in order to receive the things God has for you! Prompt obedience to the Holy Spirit, taking steps of faith, and God's promises coming to pass in your life are all truly connected! Those that know me know I'm definitely out of my comfort zone saying this & I normally don't do things like this but I guess He is doing some thing new in me lol and I must be obedient to how He leads & He won't leave me alone about it lol!...but for some reason over the past several months, every time I think about 2016 I feel His joy so strongly bubbling up on the inside. The Holy Spirit within me gets so excited about what He is going to do! He is going to do some amazing things in the supernatural that we will also see manifest in the natural! Many will see Him move powerfully in your personal devotional time and walk with Him like never before! He will use His people in ways we couldn't even imagine for His glory alone & for the advancement of His Kingdom so that many will see His works and repent and be saved! He's taking us to higher heights in Him that we have yet to see! He is truly pouring out His Spirit even more upon His sons and daughters that are hungry and desperate for Him alone! He will do this for those who are already fully surrendered, faithful and obedient in their relationship with Him and who have pure hearts & motives. Can't wait to see what He has in store for His people as we are obedient to His will and way in the upcoming year! Have Your way Lord and please blow our minds like You always do! May You get all the glory alone! Just felt led to share what He placed on my heart and I hope it encourages someone! ❤🙏🏽
Does he or she lead you to Christ? Or do they lead you to themselves. Do you fall in love with Jesus when you are with them? Or do you fall in love with them. It’s so easy to make that special someone your top prize, but when it comes to another heart, they cannot be what you are striving for, they can only help you get there.

The Only Clorox For Our Souls.
God’s truth always seems to shine the brightest during times of suffering. It is like it cleanses the soul of all the gunk that has been slowly building upon it over time due to the cares of this life and the worldliness we have allowed to creep in unaware. His Word is the clorox to our soul’s deepest stains. It is the only strong agent that can wash away the dirt and grime that has prevented us from seeing clearly what matters more than anything else in the entire universe: Himself.
So I was on instagram scrolling along and minding my own business, when I came across this comment. It really made me think. It reminded me of something I was talking to PaPa about earlier today. That I should only be desperate for Him, only crave Him, and only desire Him. He has made it clear that He will remove anything and everything that I fashion into an idol and place before Him. Even good things He has promised me that are His will for my life. He will strike to pieces the golden calves I have created in my heart, just as He had Moses do with the children of Israel (Exodus 32:20). He is not a respecter of persons. But I know He does it because He loves me and it is for my good. He is a jealous God and He will not share His rightful place in my heart with anyone else.
“You shall have no other gods before Me.” Exodus 20:3
He will make me die to the vision and the promise before He makes it a reality in my life. He will let me feel as though I am dying a thousand deaths inside until I turn to and cling to Him alone. This is the process of crucifying the flesh. This is how the anointing is produced. The finest and purest anointing oil does not flow out of a life that is filled with flowerbeds of ease, but out of a life that is littered with the rocky crevices of steep valleys. And even there He is still my Shepherd and He will lead me to still waters. This process of pruning, pressing, refining and shaking will push me to run only after Him and will produce the finest oil for my Master’s use.
I was talking to my mom the other day, who is also my spiritual mentor, and she said something to the effect of, “Baby, the anointing is costly. It will cost you everything. It ain’t free!” How ever true is that statement. People want the anointing but they don’t want to pay the high and expensive price for it. They want the glory of the ministry and the accolades of man, but they don’t want to suffer and endure the painful and painstaking process of being shaped into God’s vessel. Paul said he was “hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed” (2 Cor. 4:8-9). In other words, Paul was going through some struggles!
And no shade, but if all you desire is the glory and popularity of a ministry and having your name in lights, then I question whether God really called you or not. Anyone called knows that it isn’t fun and games, the struggle is crazy REAL at times. The spiritual warfare one has to fight is no joke whatsoever! The rejection and loneliness is not for the faint at heart!
There are times when I am like, God I accept Your will and all, but do I really have to do this??? But I know I have no other choice. I am like the slave that has had his ear pierced by his master signifying that he belongs to him forever and must do his bidding (Exodus 21:6). I must do whatever He wants. He chose me before I was even shaped in my mother’s womb. It is a done deal. It’s sealed forever. Even though it’s hard, I don’t regret it a bit. The anointing really will cost you everything, but the rewards and intimacy with God are so worth it.
This just reminds me that I should never run after a ministry, a relationship, career, etc. I must only run after Him. He is the only One that can satisfy my soul completely. He is the Only One worthy of sitting on the throne of my heart. My loyalty must be to Him first and to Him alone. No one else can replace that.
Thank You PaPa for the reminder.
I hear You loud and clear Sir.
Loud and clear. <3 <3 <3
The Great Life by Oswald Chambers

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you.… — John 14:27
Let not your heart be troubled. — John 14:1
Whenever a thing becomes difficult in personal experience, we are in danger of blaming God, but it is we who are in the wrong, not God, there is some perversity somewhere that we will not let go. Immediately we do, everything becomes as clear as daylight. As long as we try to serve two ends, ourselves and God, there is perplexity. The attitude must be one of complete reliance on God.
When once we get there, there is nothing easier than living the saintly life; difficulty comes in when we want to usurp the authority of the Holy Spirit for our own ends.
Whenever you obey God, His seal is always that of peace, the witness of an unfathomable peace, which is not natural, but the peace of Jesus.
Whenever peace does not come, tarry till it does or find out the reason why it does not. If you are acting on an impulse, or from a sense of the heroic, the peace of Jesus will not witness; there is no simplicity or confidence in God, because the spirit of simplicity is born of the Holy Ghost, not of your decisions. Every decision brings a reaction of simplicity.
My questions come whenever I cease to obey. When I have obeyed God, the problems never come between me and God, they come as probes to keep the mind awake and amazed at the revelation of God. Any problem that comes between God and myself springs out of disobedience; any problem, and there are many, that is alongside me while I obey God, increases my ecstatic delight, because I know that my Father knows, and I am going to watch and see how He unravels this thing.
If this didn’t bless me today, I don’t know what did! I asked the Lord to reveal & confirm something specific to me & He did and He corrected me in the process lol. He stays ready lol! Thank You Lord! I needed the word of correction & edification!
Preachers make pulpits famous, prophets make prisons famous. May the Lord send us prophets; terrible men who cry out aloud and spare not, who sprinkle with woes. Men too hot to hold, too hard to be heard, too merciless to spare. Great eagles fly alone; great lions hunt alone; great souls walk alone- alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men; they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.
from “Why Revival Tarries” by Leonard Ravenhill

Can I be transparent for a moment Beloved? Heather Lindsey is ministering to my spirit right now! What she is talking about I have been dealing with for the past 7 years! It's not fun losing friends & being on this narrow road. Honestly I asked the Lord today "why me?" about fifty million times lol, but I know this is the cross I must bear due to the calling God has placed over my life. I just wish it wasn't so hard though. All I can do is keep my eyes on my King and press forward. I know it will be beyond worth it in the end. Hope this word from Heather encourages you like it did for me....I needed it.
