🎉 happy new year, sis!! let's chat -- today's question: what word/ Bible verse/ phrase did God give you for 2024? for me, since God and I work in quarters (every 3 months, He'll give me a new word/ phrase/ etc.), my first phrase of 2024 is "Enjoy the Journey". I've never been much of a destination addict but somehow that mindset got ahold of me in 2023 and the Lord is stripping me away from feeling like things needs to be "perfect" or a specific way before I can enjoy all that He's doing in my life. so cheers so enjoying the ride with Him & letting His presence be the prize and not the destination!
Melody - you are a god send. 6 months ago , my ex fiance called the wedding off. Shortly after I was made redundant from my job. I had spent the past 6 months healing and travelling solo. I now start my new job tomorrow (literally a day after NY). I've also surrendered to the Lord, and despite not knowing what my future looks like anymore, I can feel him working behind the scenes...
❤❤❤❤ keep fighting through prayer and with hope, love.. All things will come together for YOUR GOOD in the end🙌🏾❤ Praying God shows His miraculous favor in your life 💕
Beautiful that you feel that after being though such a heartbreaking periode that you have been through!🙏🏿 Feeling God close is a blessing, no one can take that away from you!!!! Sending you Love❤ God definitely has your Back!
Jeremiah 33:3. I love this scripture and visit it often. God says “Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know “ ❤️
My word for 2024 is obedience. There's a Promise Land for me. However, I won't see it without obedience. I started reading the Bible in October, and Moses' journey and the Israelites wandering hit me hard. I had to stop after the Books of Samuel and study what I read, starting with Exodus deeply. My study of Deuteronmy began today, and God chose Obedience as my word.
Hello. This is my word for 2024 as well. Do you mind giving me an outline of the books you would recommend I start with? Semi newbie here and really trying to get into the word.
AMEN. May God let you abound in obedience. I know that you will arrive at your promised land if you remain obedient & perseverent towards GOD'S will for you. I feel like God has used you to reaffirm to me that I should definitely begin 2024 by reading Deuteronomy. You are blessed, indeed.
The two things I keep hearing The Lord say to me are "FAITH" and "STOP WORRYING". My story summarized: I have been without a consistent job since February of 2023, and God has been keeping me afloat. Well, I got a call on December 27th from the vice president of the organization stating that the organization would like to offer me a position. However, the job is about 2 hours away from my residence, and I need to move--which is where the problem comes in, but I keep hearing God say, "Stop worrying, and have faith. Don't be anxious. It is all going to work out". Bible verses: Matthew 6:25-34 AND Romans 8:28-30...Hopefully, this helps someone who may be in the same situation or predicament as myself. Be blessed and Happy New Year, everyone!!
My brother Robert had a massive stroke 2 months ago. He was on a ventilator for a month. He is now sitting up,no tubes,but he goes up and down with depression about his situation . These songs are a balm for our broken hearts and give us hope and peace. Prayer works and God is real and he is a healer. Keep ministering and pray for us .
My word for the year is “See I am doing a new thing” Isaiah 43:19 God started a new thing and has told me to let go of the past (Isaiah 43:18) because amazing new things are coming ❤
My word for this year is steady. Which means “firmly fixed, supported, or balanced; not shaking or moving.” I believe that’s representative of me growing with God’s support this year.
I got baptized on 12-30-23 and received the holy spirit on 12-31-23! I love thy Heavenly Father for promising me the peace and mercy that I have asked of him and has received! The Lord is my best friend for life! And forever! Amen 🙌🏽
I’ve been reminding myself that I can’t worry and worship at the same time and to make a conscious decision to worship when I’m feeling lowly in spirit.
1) You feel that you made the wrong turn and got God's intructions wrong 2) You are passing by everybody else's blessings on the way to yours 3) Your situation isn't changing but your heart is
I feel like I don't feel God in my life right now. I've been praying to God constantly and have felt like I'm in a really long isolation and silent season and don't feel or hear anything. I have faith that God hears my prayers, in Jesus's name, amen.
My word is discipline!! God gave me this word before the NY and i went to a watch night service and the pastor said the same thing! It was truly a prophetic word. I’ve deleted my social media apps, began a Bible plan with my sister, and deleted my dating apps. Truly trying to focus on my relationship with Christ and praying that everything else will just fall in place
I'm so glad i clicked on your UA-cam channel last week, and i have been watching ever since. I truly enjoy it. Last year my Aunt who i was very close to passed suddenly, and months after my truck was stolen and in a accident and then the love of my life left to be with someone else. 😢i was devastated but i stayed in God's word and continued to go to church and watch online when i couldn't make it there, and God has shown me that he hasn't left me..he has always been Faithful 🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰
Deuteronomy 31:6: Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave or forsake you ❤️🙏🏻
God keeps telling me my words for the year are restore and reset, this is the year he’s going to restore me in all areas of my life that I’ve lost, and give me a reset from this season I’ve been going through.
2 Words for me in 2024 is: DISCIPLINE and FOCUS‼️ My Bible verse is: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.-Matthew 6:33
My word is TRANSFORMATION! I based it off Romans 12:2-3, by being transformed by the renewing of my mind. I have been struggling with listening to Satans lies way too often these last 2 1/2 years and I am focusing on Gods voice so deeply that it drowns the enemy out! Thank you for this amazing reminder. The point about Hannah truly hit home for me! I love you my sister in Christ
Turned 23 today 02/01😬(nervous ngl) this is the first video I see and I believe God is working amazing NEW things for me in my life even when I don't feel like it, He is working, even when I feel discouraged He is working Things that I'm hearing a lot is "God is doing something new" and "What is for you is for you" I trust this is God's encouragement for me to keep waiting on Him and to trust Him
God put the single word "discernment" on my heart recently. It keeps popping up everywhere, so I know it's something I'd like to move towards and pray for 🥰
In this New Year God has told me that it’s time to pray without restrictions and have faith that I will receive all that I ask for. I’m someone who’s always conservative with my prayers because I don’t want to ask God for something so great that I’ll be disappointed if I don’t get an answer but this year I am going to pray without boundaries and have faith that He will answer as He always does regardless of how impossible it seems at the time❤
Oh boy! I thought I was the only one! I'm always like 'God, I don't need alot, I just need enough'. Like I don't need many material things, but I'm desperate for FULL guidance & LIVING instead of just existing. I pray that God's favour is abundant this year for not only me, but those around me! AMEN!
@@nicoleobrien5987 Same exact statement I made… I don’t want to just get by financially and don’t want to just exist and go with the flow… HE is ABLE to do abundantly and exceedingly far above all things we ask…. I realized I WONT receive if I Don’t ask. Now I’m learning to ask and not restrict him… I’d rather he restrict me himself
1. You’re beginning to think that maybe you got his instructions wrong 2. You are passing by everybody else’s blessings on the way to yours 3. Our situation isn’t changing but our heart is because we are holding on to God’s promises
My word is Faith, and knowing without Faith, it is impossible to please God! (I'm beefing up my trust in God this year! Walking by Faith, and not by sight.(All things are possible if I just believe).
I feel that God wants my word for this year to be "bloom" to be bold and to not hide from who He wants me to become right now And the verse from Esther 4:14 "for such a time as this"
I would say Jeremiah 29:11 is a big one for this season For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
For right now, the word is definitely Psalm 46:10- Be still and know that I am God. I’ve learned that “be still” actually means to surrender, which is something I’ve been holding back on since last year May. This verse was brought to my attention while doing a Bible study on what it means to surrender just three days before the new year. Then the sermon I heard at church just yesterday mentioned the same verse and my pastor said that it also meant to surrender! I honestly felt like God was speaking directly to me!! So I’m learning to surrender everything on to Him this year! :)
* “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long” (Psalm 25:4-5).
My year 2023 was a dark night for me, my husband and my family. I lost hope, i had an hard time praying. I felt like i deceived the Lord. My husband lost his job 2 times. People were not nice to him. I had lost of fights with him. We lost our grandpa. A bunch of stuff to do in a short period of time and so many things. By the end of 2023. I was so tired. But the Lord did not let me down. He gave me back faith and hope. Things are starting to come back to place. He is moving things little by little. And it is just amazing. Praise the Lord. 🎉
My word for 2024 is "Overflow"... I was praying about a couple of words and of course God had something else in mind... so overflow it is. I've been isolated, experienced incredible loss and struggle and been on the verge of just giving up this past year and I'm eager to come out of this season... so looking forward to how overflow will play out in my life this year.
After 2 failed cycles, I am expecting ivf results of 3rd cycle in a couple of days. For the past few months, i have been feeling that Holy spirit is telling me to trust God more and overcome the anxiety. I don't know what will be the outcome of this cycle. But I have learnt that even if its a negative, God works everything for my good and his glory. I am ready to face it💪
Sometimes it takes YEARS to get to the promised land. It took the Israelites 40 years. For me, I'm over 20. 4 Years ago I began documenting EVERYTHING God was doing in my life. The ups and downs and everything in between. One painful step at a time, trying to hold strong. I recorded it all in a video diary in case it might help someone else struggling. Dealing with an abusive relationship and trying to navigate life when God doesn't seem to be helping much . . or even at all.
Give me strength this New Year. Heavenly Father, I come to you today asking for your blessings as a single mom. My husband is in heaven with you. I’m raising my children with strength and courage, despite the challenges I face with my sons being autistic. Lord as I struggle to pay my rent every month and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. I ask that you bless me with your wisdom and guidance, as I navigate parenthood on my own heal my lupus and heart disease and continue to give me strength to keep going so I may watch my sons grow into men. ❤
Before starting the year I declared words of peace over my life. I'd like to do the same for you. I proclaim peace, joy, love and healing over your life. Trust in the Lord. Be blessed ❤
She isn’t a bot but she does post this message on so many videos to garner sympathy and pull on the heart strings of Christians. It’s too much and I’ve had to call her out a few times smh
@theresadanielle1 Thanks for sharing. I just don't like when I know I've seen it on several different ones and people are being so sincere. Even I initially! Happy New Year.
@@theresadanielle1 I’ve called her out as well. Every single year her message changes. I’ve been seeing her since 2021! It isn’t holy at all and I can’t imagine how many people have fall victim to it
I was saved in Oct 2022 and all that season my bible verse was Ephesians 5:8 ”For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:“. This season I'm keeping John 15:5 in my heart: ”I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.“
My word of the year is ‘FOCUS’. Last year was so hard and I was struggling to remain faithful during the tough times. This year I plan to FOCUS on God because he has a plan for me and FOCUS on staying consistent with everything I do such as reading my bible, working out & chasing my dreams.
I am desperate for God to move in my life this year as I have felt very stuck no job and living back at home with my family. Really praying and believing God will answer my prayers soon. My word for the year is "action" and I'm willing to go the extra mile for where God needs me.
My phrase is dream without fear. I have big dreams to do big things for the Lord, but I've always been afraid to voice them or admit I have these dreams for fear of failing. So this year I'm dreaming without fear and trusting God to get me to my land.
I believe God gave me the phrase, "It is finished." I felt like everything is wrapped up and I no longer have to look back. I'd just have to keep moving forward. Though the unknown awaits me, I no longer have to look to the ways and to the people I am familiar with to deal with everything. Instead, God is leading me into trusting Him and constantly seeking Him so I am able to align my life with His will and plans. In this year, God is changing my heart by no longer relying on myself but on fully trusting Him that He will take care of the desires of my heart. Thank you for this, Sis! Happy New Year :)
So We’ve All Heard People say if U need anything let me Know. But we never Really Take Them Up On That Offer. I’ve Had Past Seasons ,Where I’ve Had To Reach Out To Customers at the Gas Station Place For Food. And I’ve Had To Ask Neighbors For Food. (That Is So Out Of My Comfort Zone.) God Was Allowing someone else to have an Opportunity to Be A Blessing while letting me Know That He is Always With Me. It has also shown me why it is Important To Be Yourself.
Hi, Melody. I hope you see this message because the Lord just used you to confirm His promises concerning my life. I am going through some life challenges. Before I hopped on YT to look for encouraging faith-based content, I'd just come from praying, just really asking God where or what I was doing wrong since I've been in the waiting season for soo long. I've watched your video about our doubts being part of God's plan and now this one....and they've both just helped me so much. Now I understand. My word is obedience and patience. God bless you so much.
My word is "sustain". Coming from Psalms 55:22Psalms 55:22 NIV [22] Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
The last sign is soooo good! I am standing for my marriage but ultimately my husbands salvation and the last sign is the reason I continue to preserver because the work that the Lord has done in me alone is by far prove of his Goodness and that he is truth. I would love to be a part of your club but unfortunately do not have the opportunity to pay $24 a month.
5:31 this parallel to the time when Samuel was trying to find David to anoint him as king. He went to Jesse’s house as he was led, and then learned that David, the king of the Israelites was out in the back, tending the sheep (with the animals).
my Word for this year is Renewing! funnily enough, I noticed the word on one of our shampoo bottles the other day when I was in the bathroom. I had not noticed it before but I looked over and it was sticking out to me immediately. I feel like God was answering me before I even asked!
My word for this year is Psalms 4:7 “You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound” as someone who grew up in the church, I never associated joy and fun with my relationship with God. Last year I moved, so I don’t have a home church right now and this has been extremely, as I’ve been bombarded with the feeling of isolation and loneliness, therefore this year God is challenging me to find and do things with him that are fun and surround myself with likeminded people. He constantly reminds me that fun doesn’t have to associate with sin, so my goal is to find new ways to enjoy his presence everyday. Pray for me ladies!
My keyword for 2024 is "Bold and Courageous". I don't know what this year will bring but I know My God needs to be bold and courageous. All this needs me to be rooted in Faith.
-"Deuteronomy 8:3 NIV [3] He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. " God is telling me that temporary and worldly ways will not fill me up and make me content. It I'd not only food that makes you full but that he is the source to quench my thirst and feed the hunger of my soul.
My Phrase for 2024 is: Re-activate and cultivate a Teachable Spirit (willing to learn & be taught) in my spiritual, personal and vocational (work related) life. So often we feel like we GOT THIS and we don't. I feel a Teachable Spirit will allow me to grow and go further in All Phases of my life. ❤
6:11 we are being lead to the PRINCE not to the PALACE. Likely we want to get to the palace, but the prince is so much more important We find God in places that it are “unexpected” to us, and that is evidence that He is moving in our lives . ❤❤❤
My word going into 2024 is Holy. It has surrounded me in song, in worship and in prayer. I couldn’t figure out why but now I understand it. Focus on being more Christ like…Holy.
My word is "He goes before me." And I think that he really wants to to pray, listen and wait. I honestly don't know for how long but he wants me to keep looking to him first and above all.
Oh my gracious! I did that back in June of last year because I heard God tell me to get rid of all the clutter and only keep what I need on a daily basis. I am ready to move when my “suddenly” comes!
My word is Trust. Trust that all things are working for good even when it's not clear how, and the word you shared today supports that. Thank you so much Melody, this really ministered to me.
The Bible scripture God has given me for this year is Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future”. And imma stand on those words 🙏🏾🫶🏾, also my word for the quarter is trust.
Isaiah 1:10 “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be discouraged , for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”❤
The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still. This is my word for the year. And thank you so much for this video. I know the Lord is working for my good and I will stay still to see the victory manifested. Amen
thank you for this video. I recently also got encouragement from God through my Bible app (Bible Study) where I got the same verse for 6 days in a row. This didn't happen before and it didn't happen after. the verse was: ''so we fasted and implored our God for this, and He listened to our entreaty''. I take it as confirmation that God will soon send me my man, cause the only thing I fasted and implored for was my marriage. I hope I am not wrong in considering the Bible verse so personally.
🎉 happy new year, sis!! let's chat -- today's question: what word/ Bible verse/ phrase did God give you for 2024?
for me, since God and I work in quarters (every 3 months, He'll give me a new word/ phrase/ etc.), my first phrase of 2024 is "Enjoy the Journey".

"come up higher"
It's a year of new beginnings!
Happy New Year everyone!
Amen @MelidyAlisa🙏🏼❤️
God wants me to "stay focus and be uplifted" as I move forward from 2023.
Melody - you are a god send. 6 months ago , my ex fiance called the wedding off. Shortly after I was made redundant from my job. I had spent the past 6 months healing and travelling solo.

2024: Out with the old, in with the new. (Hebrews 8)

2) You are passing by everybody else's blessings on the way to yours
3) Your situation isn't changing but your heart is
I feel like I don't feel God in my life right now. I've been praying to God constantly and have felt like I'm in a really long isolation and silent season and don't feel or hear anything. I have faith that God hears my prayers, in Jesus's name, amen.
God is leading me to my own land in 2024 , my verse of the year Isa 43:19
My word is discipline!! God gave me this word before the NY and i went to a watch night service and the pastor said the same thing! It was truly a prophetic word. I’ve deleted my social media apps, began a Bible plan with my sister, and deleted my dating apps. Truly trying to focus on my relationship with Christ and praying that everything else will just fall in place
This is my word also. Discipline! Stay focused and be intentional with my decisions.
God’s mandate for me as I start this year: “Do not worry about tomorrow. Obey today” or “Do not worry about tomorrow’s obedience. Obey today.”
This year God has been calling me to get closer to him and to be consistent in prayer and seeking him intentionally (Jeremiah 29:13-14)
Yesss, even when I don’t feel it, I know God is still moving in my life 🙌🏾🥺❤️. Happy New Year 🎉
amen amen!!

My word is Faith, and knowing without Faith, it is impossible to please God! (I'm beefing up my trust in God this year! Walking by Faith, and not by sight.(All things are possible if I just believe).
Yesss
I feel that God wants my word for this year to be "bloom" to be bold and to not hide from who He wants me to become right now And the verse from Esther 4:14 "for such a time as this"
My word for the year is “SURRENDER”
I would say Jeremiah 29:11 is a big one for this season For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Always remember sis we men are here too, your doing a great Job 👍
For right now, the word is definitely Psalm 46:10- Be still and know that I am God. I’ve learned that “be still” actually means to surrender, which is something I’ve been holding back on since last year May. This verse was brought to my attention while doing a Bible study on what it means to surrender just three days before the new year. Then the sermon I heard at church just yesterday mentioned the same verse and my pastor said that it also meant to surrender! I honestly felt like God was speaking directly to me!! So I’m learning to surrender everything on to Him this year! :)
thank u. I've been seeking clarity in this one to. God is doing something BIG Sis!! amen n amen
@@ayeem4142 amen!!
* “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long” (Psalm 25:4-5).
My year 2023 was a dark night for me, my husband and my family. I lost hope, i had an hard time praying. I felt like i deceived the Lord. My husband lost his job 2 times. People were not nice to him. I had lost of fights with him. We lost our grandpa. A bunch of stuff to do in a short period of time and so many things. By the end of 2023. I was so tired. But the Lord did not let me down. He gave me back faith and hope. Things are starting to come back to place. He is moving things little by little. And it is just amazing. Praise the Lord. 🎉
My word for 2024 is "Overflow"... I was praying about a couple of words and of course God had something else in mind... so overflow it is. I've been isolated, experienced incredible loss and struggle and been on the verge of just giving up this past year and I'm eager to come out of this season... so looking forward to how overflow will play out in my life this year.
My bible verse is Ephesians 3:20! God wants me to take the limits off of him and allow him to be God in my life!
After 2 failed cycles, I am expecting ivf results of 3rd cycle in a couple of days.
For the past few months, i have been feeling that Holy spirit is telling me to trust God more and overcome the anxiety. I don't know what will be the outcome of this cycle. But I have learnt that even if its a negative, God works everything for my good and his glory. I am ready to face it💪
Key Word: Courage! No more fear!
Mu word is This is the year of the open door 2024.
Opportunity are opening for us in Jesus Name.
Sometimes it takes YEARS to get to the promised land. It took the Israelites 40 years. For me, I'm over 20. 4 Years ago I began documenting EVERYTHING God was doing in my life. The ups and downs and everything in between. One painful step at a time, trying to hold strong. I recorded it all in a video diary in case it might help someone else struggling. Dealing with an abusive relationship and trying to navigate life when God doesn't seem to be helping much . . or even at all.
Give me strength this New Year. Heavenly Father, I come to you today asking for your blessings as a single mom. My husband is in heaven with you. I’m raising my children with strength and courage, despite the challenges I face with my sons being autistic. Lord as I struggle to pay my rent every month and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. I ask that you bless me with your wisdom and guidance, as I navigate parenthood on my own heal my lupus and heart disease and continue to give me strength to keep going so I may watch my sons grow into men. ❤
Before starting the year I declared words of peace over my life. I'd like to do the same for you. I proclaim peace, joy, love and healing over your life. Trust in the Lord. Be blessed ❤
You are so kind. However, I'm unsure if it's a BOT, but this message pops up on different podcasts.
She isn’t a bot but she does post this message on so many videos to garner sympathy and pull on the heart strings of Christians. It’s too much and I’ve had to call her out a few times smh
@theresadanielle1 Thanks for sharing. I just don't like when I know I've seen it on several different ones and people are being so sincere. Even I initially! Happy New Year.
@@theresadanielle1 I’ve called her out as well. Every single year her message changes. I’ve been seeing her since 2021! It isn’t holy at all and I can’t imagine how many people have fall victim to it
My word for 2024 is Wisdom! God is telling me to seek wisdom and to stop playing a fool's game.
Romans 8:28 always encourages me. *Everything is working for my good and for His glory.* Amen ❣️
I was saved in Oct 2022 and all that season my bible verse was Ephesians 5:8 ”For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:“. This season I'm keeping John 15:5 in my heart: ”I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.“
My word of the year is ‘FOCUS’. Last year was so hard and I was struggling to remain faithful during the tough times. This year I plan to FOCUS on God because he has a plan for me and FOCUS on staying consistent with everything I do such as reading my bible, working out & chasing my dreams.
2024: Restoration...Focus... Intention...and Rest!
I am desperate for God to move in my life this year as I have felt very stuck no job and living back at home with my family. Really praying and believing God will answer my prayers soon. My word for the year is "action" and I'm willing to go the extra mile for where God needs me.
My phrase is dream without fear. I have big dreams to do big things for the Lord, but I've always been afraid to voice them or admit I have these dreams for fear of failing. So this year I'm dreaming without fear and trusting God to get me to my land.
I believe God gave me the phrase, "It is finished." I felt like everything is wrapped up and I no longer have to look back. I'd just have to keep moving forward.
Though the unknown awaits me, I no longer have to look to the ways and to the people I am familiar with to deal with everything. Instead, God is leading me into trusting Him and constantly seeking Him so I am able to align my life with His will and plans. In this year, God is changing my heart by no longer relying on myself but on fully trusting Him that He will take care of the desires of my heart.
Thank you for this, Sis! Happy New Year :)
First video of the year and it has blessed me with so much clarity and confirmation, thank You Holy Spirit, thank you, Melody.
So We’ve All Heard People say if U need anything let me Know. But we never Really Take Them Up On That Offer. I’ve Had Past Seasons ,Where I’ve Had To Reach Out To Customers at the Gas Station Place For Food. And I’ve Had To Ask Neighbors For Food.
(That Is So Out Of My Comfort Zone.) God Was Allowing someone else to have an Opportunity to Be A Blessing while letting me Know That He is Always With Me.
It has also shown me why it is Important To Be Yourself.
Came pass this just when I'm trusting God for my own house. Holding on to God's promises.
Hi, Melody. I hope you see this message because the Lord just used you to confirm His promises concerning my life.
I am going through some life challenges. Before I hopped on YT to look for encouraging faith-based content, I'd just come from praying, just really asking God where or what I was doing wrong since I've been in the waiting season for soo long.
I've watched your video about our doubts being part of God's plan and now this one....and they've both just helped me so much.
Now I understand. My word is obedience and patience.
God bless you so much.
My word is "sustain". Coming from Psalms 55:22Psalms 55:22 NIV
[22] Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
The last sign is soooo good!
I am standing for my marriage but ultimately my husbands salvation and the last sign is the reason I continue to preserver because the work that the Lord has done in me alone is by far prove of his Goodness and that he is truth.
I would love to be a part of your club but unfortunately do not have the opportunity to pay $24 a month.
3:35 First point
5:31 this parallel to the time when Samuel was trying to find David to anoint him as king.
He went to Jesse’s house as he was led, and then learned that David, the king of the Israelites was out in the back, tending the sheep (with the animals).
my Word for this year is Renewing! funnily enough, I noticed the word on one of our shampoo bottles the other day when I was in the bathroom. I had not noticed it before but I looked over and it was sticking out to me immediately. I feel like God was answering me before I even asked!
My word for this year is Psalms 4:7 “You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound” as someone who grew up in the church, I never associated joy and fun with my relationship with God. Last year I moved, so I don’t have a home church right now and this has been extremely, as I’ve been bombarded with the feeling of isolation and loneliness, therefore this year God is challenging me to find and do things with him that are fun and surround myself with likeminded people. He constantly reminds me that fun doesn’t have to associate with sin, so my goal is to find new ways to enjoy his presence everyday. Pray for me ladies!
I pray that your love for God may grow.🙏🏽
For me, 2024 is the year of Trust & Grace (2 Corinthians 12:9)
My keyword for 2024 is "Bold and Courageous". I don't know what this year will bring but I know My God needs to be bold and courageous. All this needs me to be rooted in Faith.
My phrase for 2024 is The AUDACITY to Believe and The Faith to Move!!
-"Deuteronomy 8:3 NIV
[3] He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. "
God is telling me that temporary and worldly ways will not fill me up and make me content. It I'd not only food that makes you full but that he is the source to quench my thirst and feed the hunger of my soul.
My Phrase for 2024 is:
Re-activate and cultivate a Teachable Spirit (willing to learn & be taught) in my spiritual, personal and vocational (work related) life. So often we feel like we GOT THIS and we don't. I feel a Teachable Spirit will allow me to grow and go further in All Phases of my life. ❤
My word for the year is shepherd, and my verse is Joel 2:25. "I will restore to you the years the locusts ate."
Walking by Faith is the chapter of my life and not by sight
Psalm 51:10
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Be still and know that I Am God ❤
My word is “rest in Me.” : rest in God
6:11 we are being lead to the PRINCE not to the PALACE.
Likely we want to get to the palace, but the prince is so much more important
We find God in places that it are “unexpected” to us, and that is evidence that He is moving in our lives .
❤❤❤
Girlll-luhh!! You are all up on my street and in my house! I just love you and thank you for your gift! My phrase for 2024 is "Let Go and let GOD!"
My verse for the year 2024 is from Mark 5:36;Do not be afraid. Only believe.
That is what is keeping me going for this year as I wait for the Lord.
My word going into 2024 is Holy. It has surrounded me in song, in worship and in prayer. I couldn’t figure out why but now I understand it. Focus on being more Christ like…Holy.
God has been speaking the word, shift, loudly to me for 2024. I am excited to see the shift in every area of my life ❤
Patience. I always want things on my timing and I need to go with the Lord’s timing.
Believing God is moving and working to bring my prodigal son back to Jesus even if I don’t see it! Amen
my word for the year is content. being content in every single season I go through, however my life looks like.
My word is "He goes before me." And I think that he really wants to to pray, listen and wait. I honestly don't know for how long but he wants me to keep looking to him first and above all.
my word for 2024 is commitment🏆✝
I am packed up and ready to go
that's the spirit!! let's go. God is working and taking us somewhere just for US.
Me too !
Oh my gracious! I did that back in June of last year because I heard God tell me to get rid of all the clutter and only keep what I need on a daily basis. I am ready to move when my “suddenly” comes!
Thank you for this, because I sure feel like I've been passing by & forced to watch everyone else's blessings!
My word is Trust. Trust that all things are working for good even when it's not clear how, and the word you shared today supports that. Thank you so much Melody, this really ministered to me.
That was my 2022 word. I encourage you to lean into it! 🤗
My word is shift, each in every way. I trust in god knowing that life will shift in every area in my life in Jesus name Amen!
The Bible scripture God has given me for this year is Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future”. And imma stand on those words 🙏🏾🫶🏾, also my word for the quarter is trust.
Isaiah 1:10 “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be discouraged , for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”❤
The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still. This is my word for the year. And thank you so much for this video. I know the Lord is working for my good and I will stay still to see the victory manifested. Amen
My word/phrase is maintain and He makes all things beautiful in His time.
thank you for this video. I recently also got encouragement from God through my Bible app (Bible Study) where I got the same verse for 6 days in a row. This didn't happen before and it didn't happen after. the verse was: ''so we fasted and implored our God for this, and He listened to our entreaty''. I take it as confirmation that God will soon send me my man, cause the only thing I fasted and implored for was my marriage. I hope I am not wrong in considering the Bible verse so personally.
