All Things God

Don't you just love the before and after renovation shows? I know I do!

In this episode, I am sharing about the messy process of allowing God to renovate our life. Many of us can relate to the neglected property across the street, the house with trauma and no means to repair it. Renovation isn't a pretty sight and can be quite difficult. However, when the work is complete we come to realize that all the labor in tearing down and pulling out  was all worth it. In this episode I want us to shift our focus from the unpurchased to purchased, the ugly demo to beautified reno!

Hey ATG family and friends!

Have you ever allowed a time of frustration to wreck your moment? If so, this episode will give you a new perspective on frustration and how to better handle it.  We have to remember that frustration is the devil! It comes to throw off our focus and drain us of our energy.

I also want you to know that it's okay to get frustrated because honestly, its inevitable but we must not harbor the frustration. Harboring frustration does nothing for us besides steering us to a place of giving up and throwing in the towel. We have to acknowledge it when it comes, take a moment to breathe, reassess, and regroup then quickly release. Frustration brings us stress and stress weakens the body. 

Take control of your frustrations and press forward!

Hey ATG Squad!

This episode is a reminder of how to accept our path to purpose and success, no matter how long it may take us to get there.

We all understand process and most of us don't want anything to do with it however, we must trust it. Rushing into something tends to cause us more damage then anything else. 

In the words of Tony Evans "Find hope in understanding that the sudden or seemingly endless detours in life are God's way of moving you from where you are to where He wants you to be."

Scripture reference Phillippians 4:6-7 and Genesis 37:15-17

Hey ATG Family! 

How many of you have sat down and had detailed conversations with your children about the religion you practice and why?

I grew up in a Pentecostal church being taught to believe in Jesus and I did. I didn't know why I believed I just did it because that's what we were told. It wasn't until my young adult years where I began to know Jesus for myself and understand why I should believe. 

In this episode, I share with you all how I almost made the same mistake with my youngest daughter my parents made with me. I was dragging her along to prayer meetings and church services making the assumption she was learning without taking the time out to teach and nurture my own child into the why of her salvation.  Honestly, I wasn't ensuring that she knew the how's and why's of the BIBLE! Bad mommy!!! So, here is a glimpse into our conversation after the mommy theology crash course. This is just the beginning of many conversation Skylyn and I began to have and share with you guys!

Hey guys!

I just felt led to share a moment of prayer, worship and adoration to the Awesome God we serve. 

Prayer should be the center focus of what we do. It's one of the best ways to communicate with God. Sharing our deepest thoughts, hurts and desires as well as the simple everyday things we do with him. If prayer is new to you I admonish you to try it.  We can't go on with our lives saying we know God and have a relationship with him but in reality we never talk or listen to him. Think about it...how could someone say they are friends with you and you guys are in a relationship and you never talk to them?  "Good Point" I know...lol! Now, Prayer may not look the same for everyone and that's okay. How my husband and I communicate may look different from another married couple. Identify your love language with God, embrace it and exercise it.

Until then listen in on this prayer and soak in.

Greetings! I felt led by the Holy Spirit to share my heart in this episode to those that are confused about God's love for them, those that have been made to hate themselves, those that feel isolated and as well as those of us that have an obligation to draw these people into the Kingdom of Heaven with Love and Kindness not Hate and Judgement. Yes, I Love with God Loves and Hate what God Hates too, but this episode is not about that. This is about Gods Grace and Mercy for mankind. I pray that you will hear not just my heart as you listen in but also the heart of Jesus! You are LOVED and NECESSARY. God has a purpose for all of us, you are not a mistake and its our Free Will to live with Him or die not knowing Him.  No Christian is perfect because no man is perfect. If man had the ability to walk in perfection then there would have been no need for the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. All sin is sin. No sin is greater than the other. The STRUGGLE is real for all those who struggle with whatever it is they struggle with. Even in our struggles God has need of us. Bottom line Christ desires you...PERIODT!  No ones life is more prevalent than another person. People are incapable of loving the way God loves so my advice is redirect your understanding and expectations of behavior.

Healing is Real, Deliverance can Happen, Freedom is Available.....Please receive this episode in love, in which I delivered it to you. 

FYI I don't hate lil nas x! I just don't come into agreement with his most recent choice of expression/art, however that is the freedom in which he is allowed to so in this country...#prayaboutit

Many of times we like to just get in the car and go! There are things we should check before pulling off but many of us check them while enroute ex. seat belts, mirrors or gas level. However, when you are taking flight in a aircraft your checks and assessments must be done in advance and accurately. There is no place to pull over once you are in flight like there is when you are in your car. In this weeks episode I am sharing my personal revelation of why I have believe God has delayed somethings concerning my elevation. I found while studying the airplane analogy that that the delay was to protect me not prevent me. I pray that you will also be able to receive from this as well. Safe travels!

 Discover the force within you. Power is birthed from the depths of your soul. There are times where we must empower and motivate ourselves. Many of us have to come to the place of knowing who we are and owning our identity in Christ. Once we can accept and acknowledge our purpose, then trust God with teaching us and guiding us with how to fulfill our purpose, its a game changer. Many of us are wasting time chasing POWER because it's something we already posses, we just need to learn how to implement it into our daily lives, careers, education, businesses and bank accounts! You are POWER!

Stop here and listen in with "All Things God" as we chat it up with Christian Influencer, Designer, Creative, Intercessor and Woman of God "Ashley Necole" about what it looks like to be a Christian Influencer. What do they do, what do they look like and who are they? We give tips on how to avoid fake influencers and what should we be looking for in their influence, positive behaviors as well as  negative.

The definition of influence is "the capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behavior of someone or something."

There are many ways that we can be influenced and here are three: logical appeals, emotional appeals and cooperative appeals. Take some time and research each one to identify what channel of appeals you are influenced by.

Listen in on this weeks episode as I talk with my first live guest Minister Tonya Langley about breaking the bondage of "Religious Mindset". Some say "Religion hates freedom and hates the Spirit of God all while pretending to be Godly. " Is that what you believe? When you think about it like it sounds harsh. That's just what we want you to do in this episode, is think about it! What is your attitude towards religion, what is your attitude towards the church, what have you been taught concerning religion verses what you have learned on your won as an adult. . Some hear the word religion and think love and salvation but there are many who here that same word and only hear fear, rules, restriction and control. We are breaking some aspects of these components down in this episode. I pray your are blessed by the conversation.
