Momo's University: Proficiency #4, We’ve Got Time!
Letter of Encouragement
From the Desk of Lady Monique Jordan
This is an inspirational message that the Lord blessed me to share during Women’s Sunday in January of this year. I thought at this juncture in our experience that these words might encourage us to stay in the battle. Remember, as we entered into this year, we reflected on what we’ve already accomplished. We’ve processed, mourned, recovered, learned, and celebrated!
1. WE NOW KNOW HOW TO CAST OUT FEAR-
- Perfect Love cast out fear.
2. WE KNOW HOW TO DO SPIRITUAL HOUSE CLEANING:
- Keep/embrace, give away/share, and throw away or release/discard.
3. WE KNOW HOW TO FIX OR SET OUR MINDS FOR SUCCESS:
- We refuse to allow the reactions of others to stop us from doing God’s will God’s way.
4. WE KNOW HOW TO AVOID THESE ROLES: VICTIM, RESCUER, PERSECUTER
- 2 Timothy 2:23-26.
5. WE KNOW HOW TO COMMUNICATE OUR DEEP CONCERNS:
- 1. At the right time: 2. Speak up, 3. Speak clearly, 4. Be gentle, 5. Let it go
6. WE’RE ALSO LEARNING TO LET GOD DEFINE US:
- NOT -the opinions, attitudes, positions, oppositions, threats, innuendos, or good intentions of others. If God be for us, who can be against us.
WITH THESE SUPPORTS WE ARE NOW......OFF THE CHARTS!
Are you beginning to recognize that it's not the devil? It's not our neighbors. It is not our family members. It's not even us, shaking up the world around us. It is the LORD calling us to higher heights and deeper depths in Him! Saints, what we as a body of sanctified, set aside, blood washed, born again, believers, want to do has no prior instruction, no plotted course, no precedent or procedures, and maybe no followers on Twitter. We are in that place where we must recognize that IT IS GOD! God is shaking up our worlds! God is shaking up our minds! God is making us uncomfortable!
God is doing this because we are in an extremely unique place right now! It's that place where the members of the Churches of God by Faith, INC. are poised at the edges of the highest branches of the trees of our destiny and God is encouraging us to fly! Not only that, but at this point, it is either fly or fall flat on OUR faces. So, it is time to separate ourselves, be still, and listen. Because, if it is God's unique plan then, who else can we call?
As a matter of fact, at this crucial point in our lives, we must ignore our inclination to constantly revel in our anxieties, and make our next move. It's not time to start praying about it again or talking it over with your friends again. Clearly, we must calm ourselves, become poised in the position that God has chosen to place us. We must LISTEN CAREFULLY, and then spread our wings of faith in order for God to lift us up where we belong!
Now, my question is: What are you going to do with this year?
Remember this is Momo’s No Excuses University and we have ONE year!
- How long is a year in hours? Answer: 8,760 hours.
- How long is a year in minutes? Answer: 525,600 min.
- How long is a year in seconds: Answer 31.5 million seconds
“Let's get on with it. (Elder Ware) WE GOT TIME!
Ask your neighbor, “What are YOU going to do with this year.” Say, “Cause I'm gonna get on with mine.” LET US PRAY!
Well ladies and gentlemen, that message was delivered 8 months ago! We have four months left in this year! Lets make the most of our time!
Look for our next Proficiency, which will be “Discovering Your Worth in God!” and “You have HOMEWORK!” Read Isaiah Chapter 54 in as many versions as you can. Meet me here next week with some insights on how much God Loves YOU!
PLEASE NOTE:
SOME OF THE ITEMS IN THIS LETTER MAY NOT LOOK FAMILIAR TO YOU.
In the coming months, we will review some of the proficiencies that were learned locally, that I have not expanded upon nationally.
Pray Saints!
You’ve Got Time!
