Total Obedience What is total obedience in our walk with God? It means doing what He says when He says where He says it. Being obedient can result in us having to say or do some hard things like Isaiah in this passage. However, no matter how hard or crazy the instruction may seem, there is a reward in simply going with God. Scriptures - Isaiah 38: 1-8 - 2 Kings 20:1-10 - Acts 5:1-10 Is God calling you to do a hard thing? Does it seem like what He is telling you to do is crazy? You’re...

Have you ever prayed a prayer simply for the sake of praying and not expect God to answer or give you a directive? The thing about prayer is that it is a conversation between you and your Creator. It is active and it involves waiting in anticipation and expectation for God will say. We have to: 1. Expect a response - Habakkuk‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ”I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this...

No - Not for you/not a good thing - 1 Kings 13 No - Not the right time - Genesis 16 No - Hope, Pause & Wait - longer wait… David coming to the throne God is a good Father and as a parent, He knows what’s best for His children.

It’s easy to hide and dim who you are but that’s not what God has called us to do. He wants us to shine bright so the whole world can see. Let’s talk about it. Isaiah‬ ‭60‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ““Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.

Job‬ ‭38‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched the line upon it?” Some time ago, I shared about the blessing of trusting God, then last week was when God says to let go, so this is “Where were You?” ‭‭Based out of Job 38… So in a recent situation, I found myself questioning a particular directive God had given and transparently, I questioned...

It’s weird when you finally get what you’ve been waiting for and God says to let it go. How do you think Abraham felt when God told him to do that exact same thing? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/galy-j/message

Sometimes it’s hard to trust God in different seasons, especially with a million and one questions on your mind. Let’s talk about it.

God wants us to be like children... but sadly, we don't to be. Society and modern culture have done a really good job of convincing us to want to be self-reliant and self-promoting.
