So how do we follow God&#8217;s plan and his will for our lives. Do we know why we wake up in the morning and what God&#8217;s-designed destiny is for our lives? He says &#8221; I know the plans I have for you&#8230;&#8221; He has already revealed Himself to you, His power has been made perfect in you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ought to move from \u201cshow me the way\u201d to more specific prayers like \u201d God, how do you want me to go about this, is this plan that I have in line with your will?\u201d. Once you hear from God, it is then ok to go back to God and ask Him for a confirmation, which He is always faithful to give. He will use a random person to prophecy, or declare a word to you. He will even use nature or kids to confirm His word to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note, it\u2019s only after seeking His will, are we to ask for a confirmation and not going about asking for signs here and there before we have even sat at His feet to consult if this was even the way he wants us to go. This way, it will be no longer a CONFIRMATION\u2019, but you going in it, in your own way. Back to purpose, being attentive in the Spirit and the GPS system. Once you know your purpose, you start \u2018moving\/acting in faith\u2019 . It is only while moving that your GPS is able to recalibrate and select the right way. You can\u2019t select the right way while being still. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, it is with our purpose and all kingdom work God has called us to do. He says in 2Peter 1:3 \u201d By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.\u201d Meaning, all have been made available for us way in advance before our calling. All we need to do is start moving, taking our position and in moving, when we feel like we need some guidance and affirmation to check whether the road we took was really the one meant to, we can keep asking for direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We need to ask direction in wisdom too. When you select a route on the GPS, it usually says, \u201ckeep going straight for 30km or so\u201d. I have never heard any GPS, repeating at each KM \u201cyes, go straight, yes, keep going, yes, go on straight. No, it gives the clear instruction at the beginning and then usually a few Kms later, it will say briefly \u201d continue straight\u201d. It is the same with our walk with Christ, He has promised to walk with us and said He will never forsake us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So when God endorses your plan and you feel it deep in your bones and spirit that He has confirmed it, you start moving and have the confidence that He is with you and that He has already provided a way . God is indeed patient with us. We have moments when we might have \u2018 slagged\u2019 in pursuing our purpose because of life\u2019s struggles but He is always waiting with arms wide open. So , when you feel it\u2019s time to step right back up, know that you are never alone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your purpose is still where you left it at. You can pray \u201d show me my purpose Lord\u201d no wrong in that but I feel we should praying \u201d Lord, where can I start from or continue from? I feel like you are leading me to this, should I go ahead?\u201d. We need to \u2018wake up\u2019 from our slumber as humanity is thirsty for our gifts and our presence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We should also not be comparing our lives with others, some of us have been called to hospitality to smile at people and hug them, others have been called to the screens with microphones, to speak up in boldness without shame, and more so others behind the screen or any public scene. Whether staying at home and pouring your love to those tiny ones or in the corridors of the corporate world, shining Jesus\u2019s love and kingdom principles in an environment that is thirsty for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I pray we all discover what is that thing, we have been called to do. Why does God keep waking you up each morning? We can\u2019t pour out from an empty heart. On the other hand, we can\u2019t keep \u2018hiding\u2019 and soaking up, we need a channeling out ~ a system that operates in balance of flowing in and out. That\u2019s why we are here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We ought to be both a Mary and a Martha in kingdom work. Wisdom is realising when you have been in one of the season\u2019s for too long and doing the necessary. Have you been soaking up too long and feel like God is nudging you to get back out there?, or have you been leaking out and pouring out for so long and feel like you are no longer speaking from the vine but more so adding your own words? T<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>hank God in His mercies and grace for being patient with us. But in His patience, there is still a gentle nudge and whisper calling out His sons and daughters to take up their positions and be His hands and feet in this world. Lean in , and take up space with the confidence that you are not doing it alone and in your own might. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has your back. \u201cIt\u2019s time child\u201d He whispers. The sign \u2013 Jesus Christ) prophesied long ago is here now, we don\u2019t need to look for it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/OSlI4zwq4uE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here<\/a> to watch the video on youtube<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Much love, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nelly.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kingdom life is more so like a GPS system, where we are intertwined with the Holly Spirit, keen in our spiritual ears , not missing his cues and signs.

During the 20th week anatomy scan, I was found to have an \\u2018\\u2019incompetent cervix\\u2019\\u2019. This could not be explained as my 1st pregnancy was stable and the baby was even born post EDD. My aim is to raise awareness of incompetent cervix (IC), coping with an IC pregnancy and the various interventions available to avoid pre-term labour. With this page, I hope I can embark on this healing process by writing and sharing my experience and all the aspects we have already experienced with our previous pregnancy with Olivia Amali and finding strength in this journey. In this page, I will talk about this last pregnancy, life with IC, our stay at the hospital, life after being discharged and living a life of continued hope and trust in our God who knows it all. As serious and emotional this story will be, I hope the words brings life, light, joy , awareness, comfort and hopefully some moments of laughter to someone. I hope that this platform will bring encouragement to families, those still waiting for their rainbows after years of fertility treatments, miscarriages, still births, pre-mature deaths and fellow grieving mamas in general especially those who can not find the words to express themselves. I am excited about inviting you to this \\u2018HOPE\\u2019 ful yet terrifying story. Love.
