Get ready for the extraordinary!

You just have to get excited when you read this...I know I do.  Let God shake  you out of your complacency, let him stir you up!!! Read this and be encouraged!!


"David was kid in the midst of warriors, and yet he was on his way to being a king…I must prepare you , because God is getting ready to take you out of your element out of your comfort zone, He’s getting ready to take you into an idiom of thinking that makes you intimidated and insecure, He’s getting ready to take you into a place where you don’t fit, where you don’t fit in with the crowd He’s going to take you in. Have you ever been out of your element, over your head, out of your circle, and said, Lord I haven’t been trained for this, I didn’t go to school for this, I don’t have the background for this..but when God calls you, He calls you according to His own divine purpose, He calls you according to His own destiny, and if you stay with the familiar, you’re gonna miss the spectacular. If you stay with the ordinary, you are going to miss the extraordinary. ….The Lord sent me to shake somebody, shake you out of your complacency, shake you out of your ordinariness, shake you out of your hum drum, routine, know what you’re going to do everyday life, God wanted me to stir you up, because something is about to happen in your life!"  TD Jakes 10/3/11

On the Verge, About to Emerge...Greater!




This is such a powerful word for anyone feeling on the verge of transition.  This blog is simply a transcription of a message I heard it, and  felt like it was for me and for me only...yet I know when God does that it's often for many of us!!  So if it resounds with you too....take it!!



 From T.D. Jakes October 3,2011 AND I QUOTE!!
"Many of you are in a transition; you are at a turning point in your life. You are standing right on the edge, on the verge, of a new idiom of thinking and being and doing and becoming, and you sense it in your spirit, yet you have a certain degree of uncertainty about the particulars. Because whenever God does a thing, He never describes what He does, He just does it because He’s sovereign. He does it because He is God all by himself. He doesn’t give you details, He just tells you to step off the boat and walk on the water. He doesn’t give you details, He just says, Go to a place that I’ll show you when you get there. He doesn’t give you details, He just says build me a house. He doesn’t give you a lot of details about circumstances and situations, He just is…and somebody in this room, God has been nudging you towards something and you can’t even explain what it is…it’s beyond your sphere of reference, it does not fit in with your resume, it does not tie in to a natural progression of thoughts, it is not an ordinary like A, B, C, D, it’s like A, B, Q it’s just all out of alignment with everything you thought was about to happen, but you are on the verge of a mighty transition and the Lord has sent me all the way from Dallas Texas to prepare you because something is about to happen in your life!"


I'm so excited right now I can hardly stand it!! Do you understand?  A, B, Q  God redeems the time that we think it's going to take to get from point A to point Q, but with God, you can just skip the grades or the natural progression of things and He can elevate you and promote you outside of the normal progression!  A new idiom of thinking and being and doing and becoming.....nothing changes until you change your mind...renew your  mind on His word...There's so much in there that helps, that tells you who He is, so you can understand more of who you are.  The more you know Him, the more time you spend with Him, the more you realize you are like Him, and the more you realize what things must change for you to be even more like Him.  He's your father, and if He's your father, then you have the same DNA.  
DNA...Doubt?NotAnymore!  I know I'm His, and He's preparing me for what He's transitioning me into...I can't explain it but I can feel it, and I know He hasn't brought me this far to leave me!  

Be encouraged!
