Transcript
- 0:01SPEAKER_00: Welcome to the Vineyard Podcast where her identity in Christ becomes the foundation for a healthy Christ relationship.
- 0:11SPEAKER_00: Hi love.
- 0:12SPEAKER_00: If this is your first time here, I want to welcome you.
- 0:16SPEAKER_00: And if you've been here before, welcome back.
- 0:22SPEAKER_00: As always, we begin by inviting God into the conversation.
- 0:30SPEAKER_00: So, Lord God, thank you for this opportunity to share a message from you.
- 0:38SPEAKER_00: Lord, thank you for every heart that you have led here today.
- 0:44SPEAKER_00: I ask that you anoint my voice to speak what needs to be spoken.
- 0:52SPEAKER_00: And I pray, God, that you will soften our hearts to receive what needs to be heard.
- 0:59SPEAKER_00: Please remove all distractions.
- 1:02SPEAKER_00: Remove confusion.
- 1:05SPEAKER_00: And allow this moment to be one of clarity and alignment.
- 1:12SPEAKER_00: It is in Jesus' name I ask and pray.
- 1:16SPEAKER_00: Amen.
- 1:18SPEAKER_00: What I feel in my spirit today is that you've been asking God for clarity, but ignoring what he's already showing you.
- 1:31SPEAKER_00: Can I tell you that coming to God is the first step?
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: Because God doesn't lead his daughters into confusion.
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: Instead, he lights the path.
- 1:48SPEAKER_00: He orders your steps.
- 1:51SPEAKER_00: And he sends what you need.
- 1:55SPEAKER_00: Sometimes he sends it through messages, through moments, and sometimes through people.
- 2:05SPEAKER_00: But here's the part many women miss.
- 2:12SPEAKER_00: You have to be in relationship with him to discern what is actually for you.
- 2:20SPEAKER_00: Because everything that sounds good isn't always from God.
- 2:25SPEAKER_00: And everything that feels right isn't always a lie.
- 2:33SPEAKER_00: A lot of women think they can figure it out on their own.
- 2:38SPEAKER_00: They feel like they can read the books, gather information, and they say to themselves, eventually everything will just come together.
- 2:50SPEAKER_00: And sometimes it does.
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: But sometimes it's not more information that you need.
- 3:02SPEAKER_00: Sometimes it's an experience.
- 3:07SPEAKER_00: An experience with someone who has been entrusted with the assignment to walk you through becoming secure in who God called you to be.
- 3:19SPEAKER_00: Because when you become her, your relationships change.
- 3:27SPEAKER_00: Your presence changes.
- 3:32SPEAKER_00: And your presence would either cause the man you're with to rise or reveal that he was never aligned and make space for the one who is.
- 3:46SPEAKER_00: You don't have to chase love.
- 3:50SPEAKER_00: You become the woman who is met by it.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: If I can learn how to show up in a way that invites a healthy relationship, trust me, I'm gonna do my part.
- 4:05SPEAKER_00: Not to change someone else, but to become fully aligned within myself.
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: Because when you do, you don't walk away empty.
- 4:20SPEAKER_00: You walk in the power, the love, and the sound mind that God has already promised us.
- 4:33SPEAKER_00: And that changes everything.
- 4:36SPEAKER_00: Alignment with God changes everything.
- 4:41SPEAKER_00: Not behavior first, not the relationship first, but God first.
- 4:54SPEAKER_00: Okay, love.
- 4:56SPEAKER_00: Enough said.
- 4:58SPEAKER_00: If this message spoke to you, make sure you follow the podcast so you'll be notified when the next Spirit led episode becomes available.
- 5:07SPEAKER_00: And if you feel led, please leave a review.
- 5:11SPEAKER_00: So other women just like you can find this space and receive what they need.
- 5:17SPEAKER_00: So until next time, I encourage you to stay anchored in Christ.
- 5:23SPEAKER_00: Be covered in love, and we'll check again soon.
