    “if God says it.. y’all just do it” real. i’m holding on a relationship that’s dishonoring God because i fear being alone and i love his family… im working on this but i think its simply common sense to OBEY THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE than to wait on God to “make a way”

      Ohhh girl this is real!! & I can assure you that you are not the only one. I’m proud of you for acknowledging it tho. I definitely will say let him go bc not only do you not want to be disobeying the Lord but you also don’t want to be blocking the person that God really has for you! I’m rooting do you sis. You’re not alone❤️

    This reminds me when I had two job options in the same field but one was more pay but the other thinking back now would’ve been so much more convenient. I prayed for pay increase before I even had the interview and he did just that. Sadly I ended up choosing the higher paying job, that ended up causing issues and in long run seeing now the other job is where he wanted me. so, I’m glad for your obedience, it just shifted my perspective.

I’m rooting for you❤️

    This was so timely because just this morning I was planning the logistics to move out of state. But I feel a strong tug to move sooner than the date that ‘made sense’ per se. I’ve also been prioritizing my sacrifice more than my obedience. I’m scared tbh. I’ll be moving to state where I don’t know anyone personally and I’ll be the very first in my family to do so. I’m stuck between going with the tools that god gave me right now opposed to going later with the financial cushion I’m setting myself up for. :(

    I love this! What trips me up is second guessing whether it’s God’s guidance or my own desires. How can we be sure? I pray on it. But is it if it feels easier?

    • @authenticallynicky
      @authenticallynicky  8 місяців тому +8

      Ohhh yeah! This can be a challenge at times but I feel like the more you read God’s word and commune with Him the more you can decipher his voice. Also, in some situations it’s completely different than what you would naturally think so you KNOW that ain’t your thought. & then there’s other times that things just keep pressing on your mind/ heart & God won’t let you rest or you don’t have peace unless you address it. A lot of times we know it’s Him which is why we’re struggling bc we’re like “God, you sure?👀” lol. Hopes that helps but I think God also honors your desire to obey Him so there’s grace for that❤️

    • @authenticallynicky
      @authenticallynicky  20 днів тому

      Hi! This is such a good question. The Bible says “my sheep know my voice” and that “as children of God we abide in him” so through spending time with God, reading his word and truly asking him for guidance it helps with being able to decipher his voice from your own thoughts. Not everyone heard God the same though so you also have to have wisdom with how he is speaking to you/ putting things on your heart

      Hi! Not sure if you are a Christian or not but I would definitely encourage you to read the scripture in context and ask for understanding❤️. For context- the 1st commandant is actually to love the Lord your God with all you heart, mind and soul. The people the God instructed Saul to kill were not living for God and had hurt Gods people when they were freed out from Egypt. Not justifying why they should have died but giving you context to why it happened. God wrath is definitely not anything to play with and He takes the treatment of his children seriously
