    I'm coming out of my rest period after also quitting my job because God told me to. The thing about the rest stage is that it's a period to completely redirect your life. When i quit my job i knew i needed to go into art and develop my art skills because thats what ive known since i was a child i was made for. Immediately after quitting i started trying to figure out how to make money from art and God said: "No, stop it. Stop trying to figure out how you're going to make money. Rest." So i stopped and i now I'm focused on developing myself as an artist. Rest is an integral part of being an artist. You can't be creative if you don't rest.
    What the rest stage is is multidimensional:
    1. You're neant to stop relying on your effort to have money and abundance in your life. You're supposed to go deeply within yourself to challenge your beliefs about money and where money comes from. Money is your birthright. You dont need to work to have abundant amounts of money. In our productivity culture thats labelled as laziness, its not. Rich people don't work more or harder than poor people but their riches grow.
    2. You're supposed to learn to discern the voice of God in that period. So many people had spiritual revelations during the pandemic because they were forced to stay home and they had to listen to themselves and coudnt run away from the things they knew were true for them. Same thing is happening in your rest period. You are not being lazy, you are meant to deeply rest so you can hear God's voice.
    3. You're supposed to start developing your god-given talent fully. Starting a business is probably not a god-given talent for most people. There is something deeper that wants to come out of you. It might end up taking the form of a business but that isnt the purpose itself, it's something that connects you to God. Businesses are just vehicles.
    If something is not going right its probably because you are not doing the inner work/self-enquiry required to move into the person God wants you to be. God wants to change your whole life including you. You can't stay the same person you were when you left your job, you have to become a completely different version of yourself. The version God designed you to be.

      I am in a rest period, too. Good to know I’m not lazy or alone - just burnt ALL the way out and desperately in need of a heavenly re-set. I need to sit with your first point (I certainly hope that’s true) but all else is dead on in my experience. All the best to you!

      Wow! That's deep as an artist who wants to embrace my work again and start a business. I left mine because I was told from God when I ask I'm tired. He gave me the green light to leave I had many say leave but, waited until I was fully ready when God said go. I asked someone before and prayed like is it really time. So, I did. I have kids and a single parent. I was a Chief. I made ok money. It was just to negative. I have to work soon. But, I know God want me to rest and restart my life. I want to work on my art too. Your right. You have to rest in order to do great things. I was always a go getter. Workaholic. I just need to learn to Let go and let God. Rest and I'll find a job and be able to work on my art soon when it's the green light. God says it's time. I'm healing for the sake of my mental health. And to spend time with my kids.

    God told me to quit my job over a month ago with no back up plan haha so far its been soooo good and fruitful. Hard at the same time bc He’s pruning me and it sure is a faith journey but He’s also blessing me at the same time and teaching me. God is so intentional with what He does with us haha

    Loved this, God told me to quit my job almost two months ago. I’m in a waiting period and looking for other jobs, but found myself having a hard time throughout the searching process. However, i realized God wanted me to rest, reset, and draw closer to him. While also exercising my faith and leaning on him and not myself. In this time I realized he’s pruning me, isolating, and allowing time for me to focus on my nonprofit. All this is leading to new opportunities, new doors, and new levels. Biggest challenge/lesson is having patience and not rushing the process.
    Appreciate this video and your words. God bless you 🙏🏽🤍

    Thank yooooou! Because this is literally one of the hardest trials. It is similar to a crucifixion. It is sacrificing self and our own will and desires to fully to submit to the call of God. "Take this cup away from me". When we don't know what is coming next but we have to step into it anyway and trust that somehow we will be okay and that whatever happens is His will. whew! This will always happen before elevation into higher realms

    After listening to God during the past few months, I think God is calling me to quit my lonely desk job (a high paying desk job) and begin working with my hands. And I think it’s gonna be a couple months until it’s time to quit my current job. I’m not sure what the new hands-on work is gonna be. But God told Abram to leave his country and “go to the land that I will show you”. I don’t know the details of what I’ll be doing, but I want to follow the Lamb wherever He goes-regardless of other people’s opinions. I also want to put my trust in God instead of putting my trust in money, because God will provide.
    Thank you for the wisdom you gave in this video!

    God told me to quit my job two months ago. I've been doing nothing while waiting for new opportunities that God promised me would show up. These opportunities all declined me and my finances are suffering, because not once in these two months have I received supernatural provision from God. I feel betrayed and like I threw away my livelihood for nothing and took a giant step of faith just to rely on my dwindling savings. I'm going back to my job soon. I officially give up.

    • @toni.alyssa
      @toni.alyssa  Рік тому +13

      The last time I gave up on God’s plan when I didn’t understand it, I got my car re-poed. Recently I got into an accident in the same car they said I’ll never get back and in my heart, I said “truly, this time I give up.” Then I remembered what happened the last time I gave up and decided to keep going, not knowing when God would show up. I’m not discrediting your feelings because I also felt betrayed by God for a long time, (repent, God isn’t moved by feelings, He’s moved by faith). I felt like God made me give up a steady income just to lead me to rock bottom. I also used to think how can I convince people to serve God when my life looks like this? But the truth is we don’t know what God is leading us to and what He’s saving us from, that’s where faith comes in and it’s often easier said than done. Also, earlier up in my journey when I quit my job and seen that I was struggling more and hadn’t seen these miraculous moves of God that others talked about, I literally just accepted that it was my season to suffer in the Lord and I googled scriptures about suffering with God and studied them from there. I can’t tell you what to do but I would advise you not to give up on God and His plan for you. Study the Bible and encourage yourself in God.

      In a similar situation with dwindling savings and pets to feed, I agree don't give up. I bought some materials to try and make a small income but I think I'm going to return them. I don't want to take away from what God is going to do in any way. I don't want to take any credit.
