Order Your Steps

Welcome to a Special somewhat Extended episode of Order Your Steps, entitled Point of No Return... I would ask that you set aside some true quiet time to listen, get a cup of tea or coffee, pull out your journal and take notes as the Holy Spirit to ministers to you throughout this podcast. 

The throughline of my Holy Ghost downloads has been to take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying. ‘Today when you hear His voice, don’t harden your hearts’ – Hebrews 4:7  ... Be attentive and obedience!

Remember our Steps are Ordered! The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

We reached and passed our pivot point, which required us to make an adjustment in our stride.  We had to be flexible enough to adapt to the Lord’s pace and His rhythm, because we are entering new, unfamiliar territory. Whatever, the Lord has ahead for us, we will not be able to accomplish without Him...

This episode is not designed to address those that have been wounded by major trauma, emotional & physical abuse, or the loss of a loved one. Although there may be scriptures that will apply.  However, I do want to speak to those that have been hurt emotionally and or offended by others.  The Bible says, The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?  The human spirit can endure a sick body, but who can bear a crushed spirit?  How could they have done that? I thought they loved me. I trusted them. Not only how, but why becomes a better question. Let's search the scriptures for some answers,,,

I would like to ask you a question, “if we knew that our life pleased the Lord would it make us happy?”  It is with this question, that I believe that the Lord has asked us to “pivot”, not only in our actions, but in our perspective of Him and life itself.  Do we trust the Lord with our happiness?  The Lord knows what it will take for us to pivot not only in our actions, but in our thoughts, as He orders our steps into the next leg of our journey.

But obviously, this has always been a part of God's plan us.  It's just an aspect of His plan that we did not anticipate. It may be time for you to pivot...

Now before you jump to conclusions, as I did, I too was taught that deliverance only applies to sin, and I tried to explain that to the Holy Spirit.  So, the Holy Spirit had to show me that deliverance also means liberation, freeing, rescue, or salvation from anything and everything holding you back or that’s standing in your way from what the Lord is calling us to do.  But there's more to it, so let's explore...

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

Although, we say this all the time, we must do it… Trust in the Lord with all your heart [with our entire being; mind, body and soul]; Lean not on your own understanding... Once we completely TRUST the Lord, we will find His Peace, a Peace that passes ALL understanding. No matter the most difficult times of uncertainty and anxiety, there will be a sense of calm in our spirit that just can’t be explained. Let's take a few moments to look at HOW...

First, we must always remember take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying and then what?

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

For the past few weeks, we have learned that we must let the Lord lead us, allow the Holy Spirit to guide us; to know, and accept that we're in the middle, and above all we must trust the Lord with our entire being!  Like David, we’ve been Anointed for the Palace, but we’ve been sent back to the field to tend the sheep until the Lord says that we are ready to become king.  Although David had been anointed for the palace, there was more preparation for him in the field tending the sheep.  Much of this training in the field prepared him for the palace.  However, he wasn’t quite ready to be king, so may I ask what have you been anointed to be?    So, I am sure that I am not the only one that the Holy Spirit has told that we have been “anointed for the palace”.  This is something that He truly wants and desires for us to internalize, So, let’s dig a little deeper…

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

We know that April is a major part of spring, which is a season of new beginnings, rebirth, and restoration.  However, during my brief Google search, I also found that April is a part of the Nisan season, a season of miracles in Jewish culture. Last week, for most was Holy Week, the week between Palm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday or Easter.  I found it rather refreshing to start the first full week of April on vacation. Now I’m sure, that by this time, you must be a tad curious as to what does any of this have to do with today’s topic which is “In the Middle”.  As always, please allow me to explain.  On Tuesday morning, I was reading my Lent devotional and it started by describing a scene of three trees on a lawn.  The tree in the middle may indicate that Spring is here, with bright flowers in bloom, while the other two may still look like winter, with only small buds on their branches.  Just like those trees, we may find ourselves in a place where one season may not have ended before a new one begins; the seasons may simply overlap.  Do you feel like you may also be “In the Middle”, somewhere between your anointing, your calling, and your purpose?  Then I believe that we may need to look at what the Holy Spirit has been saying to us over the past few weeks...

WARNING:  I am by no means advocating that this is a proven medical solution for the illness of depression, I am only sharing my experience with journaling as I worked through my depression.

As I sat at my laptop preparing for this week's episode, instead of pulling up my draft, I started wondering why the Lord wanted me to become involved in the Women of Virtue Walking in Excellence journal project.  Random thought, I don’t think so.   So, as I sat there, the Holy Spirit reminded me of an experience that I had journaling many years ago, when I was suffering from depression. 

After going to a counseling session with my husband, which was rather enlightening, I decided to go to Barnes and Nobles and find books on how to reconnect with my spirit. So, to find out what happened, you must listen to the entire episode. :-D I must admit that I have no idea why the Holy Spirit took me this way this week, but obviously someone out there needed to hear it, which is why it is crucial that we take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying…

Let’s begin by looking at Proverbs 6:8 CEV, which says: Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow. Don't ever think that you are wise enough but respect the Lord and stay away from evil. This will make you healthy, and you will feel strong... OR are we trying to move within our own power without the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit? Let's take a look at what we can do to "Let Him Lead" us...

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

The Holy Spirit has finally allowed me to continue with Hiding or Hidden – Part II, although we know that the last two episodes were not really detours, but steps on our path that He had already ordained. So, today we are considering if we have the courage to come out of hiding, from behind our stuff, our insecurities, or other people? Or are we simply hiding behind our busyness?  But what if the Lord is keeping us Hidden until He’s ready to expose us to those that need us.  So, let's explore...  Are you Hiding or Hidden?

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

Over the past few weeks, we decided that we are going to stop trying to hide from the Lord, seek His presence and worship Him; trust His sovereignty and lean into the Holy Spirit.  Today, we are going to delve into the idea of what it means to “Bear Good Fruit”.  Many times, there are things that we have heard and or learned that we have taken for granted and have not fully understood, that may be crucial as we continue to proceed on the next leg of our spiritual journey.  So let's take a closer look at what it means to Be Fruitful...

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

Last week, our topic was “Hiding or Hidden” – Part 1 and we talked about the impossibility of trying to hide from the Lord, and more. So, this week, we were supposed to look at the idea of “being hidden by God”.  Therefore, you may have been a little surprised to see that our topic is “Biblical Rest”, but that’s because, as always, the Holy Spirit had other plans.  

A few weeks ago, “While in Winter”, we looked at biblical rest, a place that I am still in. I realize now that I had found myself in “full speed ahead” mode, when the Holy Spirit said, “pump the brakes”!  Then He began to ask me some rather thought-provoking, soul-searching questions, and the first being, are you truly mentally and spiritually prepared for where you are going?  Therefore, this week, we are going to take a closer look at the question...

I’m sure that you have looked at this week’s topic, "Hiding or Hidden", and have immediately wondered, What’s the difference? Well, I am glad you asked…. Are we trying to hide from God? Or Is He keeping us Hidden?  We know that we can’t hide from God, but we can shrink back from those things that we know He has told us and needs us to do. We may not be intentionally trying to hide from the Lord; however, we may be unconsciously avoiding what the Lord has called us to do by becoming preoccupied with all our other stuff.   So, do we have the courage to come out of hiding, from behind our stuff, our insecurities, or other people? Are we hiding behind our busyness?   Let's take a few moments to consider the answer to these questions...

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

Last week, we left off with Galatians 6:9 KJV, which says; And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season, we shall reap if we faint not, and we will come back to it a little later. In the meantime, you may not have realized it, but we have five (5) seasons, Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, and DUE season. The Holy Spirit has been rather persistent with this message of Seed, Time, and Harvest, so I’d suggest that we listen very carefully as we look at the seasons through the eyes of a farmer.

As I was preparing this episode, as always, the Holy Spirit helped me to put the season that I’m in into perspective and I hope that it will do the same for you... Remember Our Steps are Ordered!

Last week, we started our discussion on Seed, Time, and Harvest. In Genesis 8:22a, it says, As long as the earth remains, there will be planting and harvest…and the Holy Spirit showed us how the process of farming can be applied to our lives today.  This week, we will briefly review the process of sowing the seed and reaping the harvest.  The Lord provides a bountiful harvest, the reward for our labor, if we don't give up...

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

So, as I was lying in bed, early Saturday morning, anxiously awaiting to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit, when I heard in my spirit, SEED, TIME, AND HARVEST, thus my topic for this week. Farming analogies are used throughout the Bible, so I started my search, which began at Genesis…

As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease. – Genesis 8:22

For this episode to make sense, we must put ourselves into the place of a farmer, and remember that farming is very hard work, extremely labor intensive. As we are pushed into our purpose, there are some scriptures related to farming that I'd like to share with you.  This week, we will look at Seed & Time, and next week, we are going to talk more about Harvest.    So, Stay Tuned!

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

Although, we are only eight days into the new year, it has been very interesting what the Holy Spirit has been saying to me and maybe to you also. I believe that in 2023, we are going to be PUSHED into our Purpose, like never before.  The Lord is going to PUSH us this year, because He is truly tried of waiting for us to do what He has already told us to do.  We are being PUSHED out of our comfort zone and beyond what we may consider our inadequacies and our limitations. This year, with the help of the Holy Spirit, we are going to need a "supernatural strategy" and I'd like to share with you a few components of it.  Remember, Our Steps are Ordered...

It’s a New Year and although our lives usually do not change drastically from Dec. 31st to Jan. 1st, it’s another year of God’s Favor, for us to experience life like never before.  Often, I must remind myself that my task is simply to plant the seed, therefore, my message to you will not change in 2023. We must always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying, we must have water to grow.  He will tell us and show us how to Live Our Best Live Ever!

We are moving rapidly into 2023, another year of God’s Favor, but we must be careful not to pray away the mountains that the Lord may send our way. We must understand that the Lord is always strengthening us for this journey.  We can’t afford to allow our mind, heart, or soul to become cluttered with thoughts of discontent and defeat.  Although it may get tough, the Lord is always on our side, especially when adversity comes.  It is the courage to continue that counts, especially when the journey gets tough and the mountains are high.

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

This may be somewhat of a weird introduction to this week’s episode, but I almost missed my miracle, which is why I’m saying to you, “Don’t Miss Your Miracle!”...

Well, my story began about 4 years ago, when my husband broke his ankle after he slipped on the ice.  Being the man that he is, not knowing that it was broke, decided to cinch up his boots real tight and walk on it for TEN whole days.  As I casually passed by him and saw that his ankle was rather swollen, we realized that there may be a problem.  There are a few more interesting details to this story, but you will just have to listen to the entire episode. 

Ultimately, everyone’s situation may be different, and this may not apply to you, but for some of us, The Holy Spirit wants us to know that we may be looking at our Miracle and just NOT realize it... My prayer is that your prayers are answered, and your miracles happen, but it just may not look the way you thought it would.

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

There’s absolutely no benefit in rushing the Lord’s process. No matter the length of time that we must wait, He is teaching us to be patient while He continues to perfect us, grow us, and mature us. So, as we pursue our purpose, success, and greatness, we realize that it all will happen in His Divine Timing.  It doesn’t matter what you are waiting for, the Lord needs to know that you can handle it, that means spouse, new career, new house, new business, money, fame, influence, etc., but the Waiting is Worth It!  So, it becomes extremely important that we always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying...

As we move into 2023, I have so many thoughts swirling around in my mind about what the Lord has in store for us in the coming year.  As our journey continues, we all know that life will continue to happen, but the midst of it all the Lord has a plan. With our lives changing so rapidly, we must resist the desire to simply bury our gift, out of fear and just move on. We know that is not just a very bad idea, but for us, it is not an option.  So, what’s ahead for you in the coming year? If you are not quite sure, then it is critical to always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying... Our Steps are Ordered!

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

We don’t always have to make change happen, in life, in our careers or in our businesses, we simply must allow it to happen and not resist it!  Although we would rather not discuss this reality, but many times, failure is also inevitable, however, we must know how to manage what we cannot avoid.  So, let’s face change head on! There will never be the perfect time to take the next step, but if we don’t sow, we will not reap.

Therefore it is critical to always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying... Our Steps are Ordered!

The steps of a good man (woman) are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Psalm 37:23

There are times when we must tell the enemy NOT TODAY!  We must let him know that we will not entertain one taunt, threat, distraction, discouragement, or setback.  We must also remember that although spiritual warfare is real, our enemy is not people. So, I would suggest that we pray for all of those that may cross our path this week. 

Take a moment to be still, be slow to speak and listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying…

Have an AMAZING THANKSGIVING!!

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.  Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:26-27 KJV

Do you have those close friends or relatives that you don’t talk to often, but you are very close? You may see them on Facebook from time to time, but as life happens, years may go by without actually talking to each other. But, in a moment, the Holy Spirit will say just call them. Now this is the challenge, do we take the moment to call or do we put it off or maybe you just text to say Hi.  We must admit that the pandemic has changed a lot of things, but it should have made us even more aware that we need to say in better contact with each other than ever before. We have technology that allows us to see each other’s faces even when we are thousands of miles apart.  But, unfortunately, technology can be a two-edged sword, because I believe that we have lost the art of communication, to text is faster and easier. But now, we don’t have the opportunity to read the body language, or sense how people are feeling by just their tone of voice.  

Life is too precious, we just can't afford to miss a moment, especially those quiet moments when we need to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying…

Last month, I turned 66 and although I know that my steps have been ordered through all the good times and the bad, I finally have a confidence that I’m truly living on purpose.  My life still has its challenges, but I’ve learned to “stop sweating the small stuff", I turn the big stuff over to the Lord, and if I'm not sure what size it is, I give it to Him anyway. But, you really don’t have to wait until you’re my age, these days can be your best days... when you continue to take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying...

Are you in a place of uncertainty? Are you growing weary in your efforts to keep moving? As we said last week, you may be in the wilderness.  Although the wilderness may feel like a place of stagnation, maybe even boring and non-productive, it’s a place of the Lord’s provision and protection until we are ready for where He needs us to go, to the place that He has promised us.  Our journey may take longer than we had hoped, but we cannot grow weary in the wilderness and more importantly, don't forget to take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying along the way...

If we were to look back over the last 12 months, what would we see? Now, if we could look ahead 12 months and what would we see? Are we looking at all the pieces of the puzzle, are we connecting the dots? Are we seeing the Order of our steps? Or have you found that we are in the wilderness?  Although, the Lord may lead us into the wilderness and provide for us while we are there, He doesn't mean for us to get too comfortable with it and settle in the wilderness, however, it is a part of the journey!

So make sure that you always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying...

This episode is short and sweet...For some reason, the Holy Spirit wants me to stay on this topic of the “Clay in the Potter’s Hands” a little while longer.  So I must ask you once again, where are you in God’s process? Are you still a ball of clay or have you decided to allow the Lord to continue to mold and shape you into what you were created to be?  Ultimately, it doesn't matter where we are in the the process, because the Lord is Not done with us Yet!  Therefore, it is crucial that we always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying…

Last week, I suggested that we all take a closer look at our own respective journey through life.  As the Lord molds our wet clay on the Potter’s wheel, the process may begin smooth and gentle, but at some point, it may get a little Hot…  He must make sure that the clay solidifies and begins to harden, so He must apply some heat.  We must remember that as our wet clay begins to harden, the Lord will bless us with a unique design of gifts, talents, wealth, knowledge and so much more to serve a very specific purpose that will benefit others and glorify Him.

I believe that at times, the Lord may become somewhat frustrated with us and because when He whispers, we don’t really listen, so He has had to Shout! There’s a noise in your spirit that is so very loud that you can’t ignore it.  I believe that this may apply to some of you, and you know who you are…  There’s a major shift happening in our lives and the Lord has had to result to shouting at us, because time is of the essence.

There was so much in last week’s episode, “Preparing for the Journey”.  The Lord is constantly leading us towards our destiny and many times, we don't even know it. He is ordering our steps and guiding our decisions, as we move from one place to another in this life.  However, the question begs... 

Are we ready to take a quiet moment to listen to the Holy Spirit, Or will He have to continue to Shout. The choice is ours.

Imagine with me, for a moment, that someone very close to you; spouse, sister, best friend, someone who knows you, almost better than you know yourself, told you that they were taking you on a trip, but they are not going to tell you where you are going.  They are just going to give you a few details, so that you can prepare for the trip.  

Isn’t the Lord the same way and He knows us better than you know ourselves?  So, how are we preparing for where the Lord is taking us?  He doesn’t have to tell us where we are going, we just have to get ready and put things in suitable order for the journey, with the information that we have.  So, we really must be listening intently to what the Holy Spirit is saying all along the way….

Last week, we talked about living in the overflow, meaning to be saturated with God's presence to the point we begin to overflow His Glory. Since we cannot contain His Glory, the overflow becomes the catalyst to our calling.  Logically, this sounds reasonable, however, spiritually, we will be stretched beyond our own ability.  We cannot afford to be so preoccupied with just living life that we forget why we were created!  We must be ready when the door opens, because it’s the small opportunities, at just the right time, that may count the most, which is why we must always be listening to what the Holy Spirit is saying…

Over the past several weeks, I had begun to see and hear the word “overflow”in a lot of different places, for example, in sermons, bible plans, even on social media.  So, let’s look at what it means to “live in the overflow”...

Although we often ask God, Why?… do we really want to hear His answer? When we think about it honestly, God doesn’t actually owe us an explanation for what He does or how He does it. But this is by no means in a callous, uncaring sort of way, but I believe that the Lord knows that there is nothing that He can say that would satisfy us, an answer that we could actually embrace and understand.  So when life gets hard, it is so very important for us to always take a quiet moment to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying...
