I’m so weary. I want to give up. The devil wants me to lose my faith but God won’t allow it. Since covid I fell on a terrible hardship, like many others. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my health conditions. I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I’m now waitressing but not making nearly enough to get by. I’m a single mom, my husband is with God. I still miss him dearly. My children are autistic and non verbal, I’m overwhelmed they require so much from me. I recently started homeschooling them due to them having do many issues in school. Jesus hear my prayers. I’m tired of struggling every single month. I can’t even afford the tools I need to homeschool my boys. But I trust in you Jesus even as I struggle providing groceries for my children. I’m ashamed. I feel like a failure. I get harassed and put down for sharing my testimony. I only keep pushing because of Christ. Walking with faith not by sight!
I am praying for you! I understand that this is a challenging time, but please take comfort in the fact that God is listening to your prayers, and He will answer them. I firmly believe this, and I hope that you will too. Remember, the Bible tells us that when two or three gather in His name, He is present among us (Matthew 18:20), so let us join our hearts and have faith that God will help you through this difficult time. Even though we may not know each other, please know that I care about you, and more importantly, God loves you unconditionally!
I am praying for you sister!!! Don’t give up! I am so sorry you’re going through this but i know God will make a way for you! Life can really suck sometimes but your blessings will come, just have faith. I’ve been there! I’ve wanted to lose faith but God pulled me back. I lost my job as well do to declining the vaccine and life was and still is tough for me but God most definitely made a way and is continuing to do so!!! I cant assist financially but i am more than happy to connect with you and help you find assistance in some way. We can swap emails if you like!! God bless!
I too have been called to a season of surrender and extreme obedience. God has been calling me to take everyday with Him one day and step at a time. I often want to know everything that is ahead, but the Lord just wants me to take life with Him day by day. Very different from what my flesh would want to do!
You just described my exact season! I literally repeat to myself daily, "minute by minute" lol. Because I can't even take life day by day. I keep asking God for a vision so I know what I'm getting myself into. I know He wants me to trust Him and surrender wholeheartedly, so that is what I am trying to do in this season!
This is also me right now. I had a lot anxiety and in surrendering I can say that He has delivered me from it. He is telling me to trust Him, something that I struggled with for a very long time. But He has definitely showed up in my life in this season.
Ask God for the strength and release your worries and stress over to him. I know it's easier said than done but it really makes a difference and may provide that sense of relief. God bless
He will, trust isn’t always easy when you can’t see what he’s up to. But imagine, there he is, in the back ground fighting that battle tht is unseen. Many of times we think he isn’t there, he’s there for you b/c look at the people who just responded to you. Believe in what you ask for, even if it isn’t there, treat it like it’s already there or it already happened. Know who YOU are and don’t be afraid to let tht prt of you shine. Listen to India Aire “I am light” and you stay encouraged
Lord, PLEASE give Your strength to our sister. Help her to continue to SEEK & OBEY. Give her the ability to do so and please remind her that she is yours and You love and care for her. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!
I too feel God telling me to surrender but also I’m in a season where I feel God is telling me to “focus” on him. I can be easily distracted by the circumstances and the Holy Spirit reminds me to focus on what God is saying and His promises.
hey, sis!! I know I'm not the only one God is calling into a season (more like a lifestyle tbh lol) of surrender! Today's question: what season of life does God have you in currently? For me: I am definitely in a season of unexpected surrender. Surrendering my perspective, my thoughts, my ideas, my hopes, my marriage, my family -- ALL OF IT!! surrender, surrender, surrender.
Sis- the current season of life that the Lord has me in is to show me a mirror of myself, or the capacity that HE sees that I have NOT that I have of myself! It's beautiful! 🤍
I feel the same way. The word "surrender" has been on my mind since the start of the year! So this video is really great! 💖💖 Need to be reminded of all the tips you shared, especially the last one. 😢😢
God currently has me in a season of rest, something I haven’t done well in previous seasons but this time around I really want to do better. The key things I’ve realized that are essential for me to truly experience rest are faith and surrender/obedience, I won’t say I’ve given it 100 percent but I’m being more intentional each day. Also a tough thing to battle in the season of rest are the opinions of others.. So many people giving suggestions about what I should and shouldn’t do but I know moving in another direction will only delay what God is trying to usher me into.
I’m in a season of surrendering my love life to God it’s really difficult but I’m doing my best to let go and let God please keep me in your prayers that God will bring/bring back the person who I’m truly supposed to be with and give me the peace and healing that I need 🙏🏻💖
I don’t think I can put a specific name to this season I’m in but it’s definitely a learning, healing, and growing period. I asked God, how can I spend more time with you and He told me by just being and receiving. Finding new ways to spend time with Him and allowing our relationship to grow and breathe instead of keeping it in a box. I think it’s definitely a season of growing closer to Him by allowing Him to reveal Himself to me and allowing Him to pursue me on His terms.
Surrendering to God takes a TREMENDOUS amount of act of faith in God. Abraham was willing to kill his own son to prove his surrendering faith. MANY saints, apostles, died as martyrs while surrendering to God. Others have lived in poverty. "Fully and completely" surrendering to God means doing EXACTLY what HE says--NO excuses, NO ands, ifs, or buts. If God speaks to your heart telling you to do something, do it. If God tells you to stop doing something, do it. Surrendering means whatever you do, do ALL THINGS for the glory of God--including ALL forms of entertainment. Only entertainment that edifies, that gets you closer to God, that makes you think about loving God more. So are we all willing to "fully and completely" surrender to God? We all can, but only by the grace of God and if we accept it and are willing to follow Him.
This came right on time. I had an encounter with the Lord last year in December and He said "I will do it in 2 years". I knew in my heart there were things I needed to give up and completely surrender to God. Thank You, Lord ❤️🙏
I am also in a season of surrender too. Yooh it's hard but so peaceful. It's like when I do the things that God wants me to do I just get this peace within me.
Guys I've been in a surrender season for the past couple months as well. There are a lot of things I want my way, but I'm constantly reminded that I don't want it to end up the way it did before. One thing I've been learning to exercise is not walking in my own strength while waiting on God to move when/how he wants to. It's uncomfortable, but I know God needed to put me in a position that would force me to step back. "God, let everything go according to your plan" has been my daily way of surrendering in this season...along with that grounding technique, that "taking every thought captive" prayer. It's rough out here lol, but we are more than conquerors. We got this!
This is definitely my becoming season. He came through with Devine intervention on a situation I was in and had to sit me down so that I could become who I needed to be for that particular situation. I saw vision and assignment but tried to run (did run) and do a lot on my own, so he had to humble me so that I’m actually ready to receive that blessing. So really a season of Becoming and Assignment. I’m glad he did what he did, bc th e blessing is gonna be OH SO BETTER than anything my lil human body could’ve put together. I’m have so much more wisdom now.
I looove how patience God is with us! This is so encouraging to hear the journey He’s had you on and exciting to think of what is to come! 🤍🤍 thank you for sharing sis!!
I did it. I felt it. I leaned my head back on the headboard of the bed and relaxed my body, because I really wanted to change this time. It was finally time. I opened my heart after it was cracked open and I genuinely just wanted to come home. I found god, I found me, and then I became we. Thank you for being the manifestation of one of the most important moments in our life. ❤
Surrender is one of those things that shows up in every season for me, and in this season surrender looks like me completely changing everything that I've known and leaned on in times of needing comfort. This video is so timely because I need the reminder on how to properly surrender and be obedient to His instruction.
I definitely feel like I'm in a season of transformation. God has led me back to Jesus and I'm learning to honor the Son as much as I honor the Father. I felt empty for quite some time and everything in my life felt like a mess but I feel like God is doing something so big and great in my life during these trying times❤🙏🏽.
This video is right on time for me. I literally was praying to God and surrendered all aspects of my life to Him the other night, but realized that I actually don’t know how. Thank you Melody!
Every point is so true. Im struggling with surrender. But i definitely agree that asking God to mold our perspectives & obeying the steps of his calling for us is so key!
In this season God is asking me do you trust me? Do you have faith that I will do what I promised you? I take my relationship with God very seriously and I told God that I will not make any moves without hearing from him first. God has a sense of humor because since the beginning of the year, my faith has been tested. We times get hard, I speak God’s word back to him but I tell him I believe that you will do it!!
I think I am in a season of "waiting on God" I have Surrendered and now patiently 🙏 waiting, because I don't know if I obeyed with a Christlike Posture. Sometimes I really feel walking 🚶♂ in Faith is easy but also the hardest thing to do especially if you are so focused on wanting to walk and be in alignment with God's plan for your life. I think Hope and Faith ultimately drives all your decisions 🙏
I have been hardening my heart towards god for some reason i want god. Yet i run to sin well mainly the things of this world that sometimes i put over him. I want him back and I want to make myself to stop hardening my heart and come to him and forget and stop loving the things in this world that will soon just become a memory.
I love when God confirms His word to me through everything around me in some way. I kid you not, yesterday the word "Surrender" came to me as I was continuing to use your "SOAP" method. I wrote it in yesterday's journal log of mine. My prayers will go nowhere unless I COMPLETELY SURRENDER to God! It is my meditation focus for the week to carry with me Everyday! Thank you for your wonderful uplifting and inspirational videos. All glory be to God and blessings upon you and your family.
I've been called to a season of surrender and have been fighting it harder than ever. I am currently 6 months pregnant and for the first time in my adult life, unable to gain employment. This is a problem I've never encountered before and has me so lost, discouraged, and depressed. I am blessed to have an amazing support system that has held me together, and all keep saying this is God telling me to slow down and come to Him because I am so used to always "go, go, go." Just struggling to understand and figure out how to navigate in this season and become a better/stronger and capable person for this little life that is growing.
I literally go to ask God to help me heal and let go. I even ask to do something to make sure I can trust and sure enough he does. I am beyond grateful for his kindness and love. I keep asking throughout the day. Thank you for your support and helping others. 💜
Beautifully Said! I truly believe God has called me to surrender too! God called me to surrender my singleness to Him! I could literally feel Him pushing me to delete my dating apps and realign me to focus on Him. I’ve been too busy trying to do dating my way to receive the promise, but Gods like trust me, everyone’s way isn’t the route I have for you. But these points you’ve brought to us are so relative and I needed it, it’s like a spiritual reset button. Be blessed sis & continue with the faith based content. I love it!
Am in the healing season. However, I went through a surrender season, and I wasn't obedient to God. It was hard for me to surrender, but as I am healing it is becoming easier for me to surrender all my worries and anxieties to God.
This video was exceptionally timely for me, I was praying to the Lord about a situation that I feel he is calling me to surrender to him and was asking him what surrender looks like thennn funnily enough my morning devotion focused on Romans 8:28....watching your video I couldn't believe it haha - God is so good!!!
Hey Melody! I’m definitely in the surrender season. I got so tired of trying to do things my way and nothing was working. Since giving it all to him, I’ve been in such peace. I also have been getting assignments to post and got great feedback from it. So I’m definitely happy in this space and don’t ever want to look back.
God definitely has a way of speaking to His children. My focus this year is to focus on Trust…on a greater level. One of my initial challenges was honoring the sabbath. My first day of practice required much mindfulness. But Gif spoke to me through His people every step of the way, you are no exception. I am grateful to God for His faithfulness and the opportunity to tune into your channel today. Blessings to you sis. 🌺💕🌸
Wow, I just walked away from an emotional toxic abusive spiritual marriage; oh by the way God didn't not ordained and am in the waiting season why he is healing preparing. fixing all the broken pieces of my life for the new season .I am embracing this time alone season where he is rebuilding me all over again.
I'm having loads of health issue that I can barely stand for a minute, I'm so tired and trying to cling to the Lord,it's so hard when all seem like nothing is changing but I am hoping he gives me the grace to surrender all to him.He healed me of an incurable disease few months ago and I believe he can heal me again
Rn April 19th am going through my surrender season I just realized this after hearing the first step how when I was in school I was walking past couple girls and they called out to me cussing and asking if I think I was a model i simply turn around drew a cross over my body and walked off and I could still hear them cussing at me God walked me through that situation without me even realizing it I thank u so much and I am grateful he brought this video to me
something i was told in Bible study completely changed my life. how when Jesus went through struggles and difficult times, he never asked God why because he knew God foresaw the struggle and approved it because it would help Jesus or those around him for their betterment. my jaw was on the floor i had never thought about it like that before
Lately. Been battlin with faith and wanting to stay here…the warfare been on a high but prayer goes higher. Never the less…Surrendering to God is hard sometimes.
Honestly. I’m in a season where I’m being pruned to the core of me. There’s a lot of things, feelings, thoughts and mindset, that are helpful, and some are in the wrong way. And I’m just allowing God to mold me into who I am called to be me. It’s uncomfortable.. but.. I know it’s gonna be worth.
God is using you. Forreal. I tell you no lie.. God literally has been speaking this exact thing to me. Surrender. Trust in Him. When I watched your video last night, I was thinking - yup, me too. Literally everything / every single point you said is what God has been speaking to me.. so even though I started to comment, I decided not to because I didn’t see the point. I just liked the video and kept it moving. But listen! I’m journaling right now, and God led me to a sticky note I literally wrote yesterday morning… well, the Holy Spirit wrote through me, instructing me what I need to do.. long before I watched your video.. I’m just going to leave it right here - “I need to do what God is telling me to do. I need to surrender and give it all to God. I need to abide and rest at the feet of Jesus. Someone I’m connected to needs to see it. Someone I’m connected to is waiting on my yes.” I don’t know if all of that made any sense, but My God! I’m not even gonna elaborate anymore. If you read it and know, you KNOW. But I do want to say thank you Melody, for your obedience and allowing God to use you. And thank you God for connecting me to her. 🙏🏾🤍
Thank you so much for this video, I recently started getting close to God again and one of the things I was struggling with was surrendering to God, I always felt that I could carry my own burdens rather than giving it to God because it felt like a safer option. I didn’t like the fact that I didn’t know what God would do with my burdens that l gave Him or that I didn’t have control over an area of my life but the more I was holding onto those burdens the more spiritually weak/tired l got…after watching this video and surrendering everything to God I felt complete peace and lightness in my spirit l just want to give God all the glory and honour for how much He cares and loves me and every single one of you guys to go out of His way to make me/us find this video and l thank you for obeying God’s voice to post this video ❤️!!! God bless you and to anyone ready this continue to trust God and cling onto Him through every season, He loves you so much ❤️✝️
I’ve experienced probably the biggest loss of my life yet and I think that I forced myself to move on with life without acknowledging or allowing myself to grieve, so now my head is very foggy and I’m faced with a lot of change. I think that I’m at a point where I no longer have control or where I realise that I was never in control and the more I push things into a certain direction, the sadder I become from disappointment. Perhaps it’s my season of surrender. God’s been alluding to this but part of me didn’t want to see. So this video was just so helpful in that regard. Thank you for your content🙏🏽
Thank you for this! Great reminder to be more aware of my finances as I start over financially and with a new career. I really feel God is about to guide me so well. And being honest & deligient about my money management wisely. God bless you and your family 🙏🏾🫶🏾!
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6 I’m sure you know this verse but really sink into what it means. The Lord loves you so much more than you know and He is above all your confusion even tho it doesn’t feel like it. Even tho you feel alone He has never left you and He is will bring you out stronger “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”” Deuteronomy 31:8 Focus on Him and who He is and He will bring you peace “Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:5-7 Praying for you❤
Blessings Queen!! Love your videos!! I am in a season where God is showing me who he is as Abba Father. Last year has been a real test of my faith. I am determined to not let this year brake me. I know I am in a fight for my life. But the LORD died for me. John 3:16 !! I know I have a reason to live. Blessings to you and your family and every other person on here. We are all in this together!! Peace and blessings !!
I’m in a growth season, which feels amazing. I’m hungry for God and His Word. My word for the year is BOUNDARIES. I’m exploring how that applies spiritually, emotionally financially, in relationships, with my time etc.
We must never make our own idea Of God, we must never make our concept Of God but we must pray and study to know Who He really is, we need to follow God and worship just as He Is, also obedience must never be a means of gain, we must always be obedient wether we get something out or we don't, life is not about us
Hi Melody, greetings from Suriname 🇸🇷. I've been following you since januari this year, while I was on my Daniels fast. I watched the video about your experience and was captivated 🥰. I am in the season of waiting and know in my heart it won't be long anymore. I am at rest, seeking the Father in His word and praising Him for who He is. Thank you for your videos, they are a blessing.
So GRATEFUL for how the LORD has used this today! I am going through some things at work, but my surrender season is being taught by Him in really EVERY area of my life. Great steps!! You have said some things on here that the Lord has been saying to me already. Bless you! I don’t know what I would do without the LORD! I NEED time in His Presence…YES, LORD, thank You and PLEASE give me YOUR thoughts!! Please help me to SURRENDER AND OBEY!! Hallelujah and AMEN.
Melody thank you so much for always posting relevant content. I find that most times when I watch your videos they speak into my season. Being in a season of surrendering can be a bit challenging tbh but I'm glad I made the decision to choose God over the flow of the river😋
You are not the only one sis! In this season God has called me to go deeper in Him, & that includes surrendering & obeying. Some areas are easier to surrender, others I’m struggling in. Thank you for sharing your journey (and explaining what ‘good’ means from Romans:28).
Melody, we are on the same page and everything you put out relates to the exact time in my life! Grateful for your comeback! glad you are healing and happy
Good evening, Melody!! This video blessed me tremendously! It was right on time! "Surrender" was something that the Lord was talking to me about earlier today. Throughout the day actually! There are some things that I have to surrender to him. Let me rephrase that! I am in a place where I have to CONTINUE to surrender EVERYTHING to him! My life, plans, relationships, and etc. To exchange my will and my ways for His!! It has most definitely been a process. I know that the Lord will meet me halfway if I do my part! Which sis! Something that I am in the process of doing in this season and time of my life! I am in a place where I have to do things that I do not want to do, but I trust Him. I know that He is a God that will cause ALL things to work together form MY GOOD! FOR MY BENEFIT! The process may not feel good, but it's for my good! I believe that! All I ask is that you pray with me as I continue to pray for myself. FULLY AND COMPLETELY surrendering to God is something that I am willing to do! I need only HIS HELP to continue too!
I am no longer aware of the season I am in, I know that I keep trying to find work after being Fired 😢 I know that God know’s I have no where to really go and that I was working towards getting my car so I could at least sleep in my car yet I got fired on the day that I was going to reach my financial goal - I would have purchased the car and continued to work until I found something else. I know that I just have grown tired of waiting, not to the point that I want to bring it to come on my own but rather that I don’t even want it, I don’t know how to surrender something without NOT CARING AND NOT WANTING IT ANYMORE. When I care and I want something I think about it often, I think about how I would be if I had it and what I intend on doing. I’m an overthinker and i’m just tired of waiting for God to show up. I’m started to accept that if God wanted to and desired that for my life then wouldn’t he bring it to pass? However I done told people what he’s gonna do and now I look foolish, God hasn’t shown up in that specific area but he has made me a witness to other peoples blessings as I have asked. A few months ago I keep receiving a double portion message everywhere, anytime I opened UA-cam, instagram my bible, it was leading me to messages of double! A few months later and I have at least two cousins whom have never been close to me growing up that I have grown closer to recently and they are both having TWINS 😭 may not be what somebody else was expecting but twins from these two specific women? Yeah I automatically saw that as a blessing from God that I was able to witness! One of them told me, she even prayed to God and asked for them, and how he’s with her always especially through this pregnancy since she is high risk, which I didn’t know that all twins or more were automatically classified as high risk. Anyways, I’m tired of going eveywhere and while i’m on the way I’m confident but soon as I enter i’m reminded by the enemy every thing that I don’t have. I hear the laughs and mocks, I feel the strange stares from people looking at me, I know when people can smell me when I haven’t had a shower in days, though I keep trying on these interviews I know everybody around me is thinking “this girl has no motion and she isn’t trying to change it” I can feel energetically when somebody is speaking about me. I just lower my head because I don’t want the shame of people looking me in my eye seeing me like this. When i’m wearing the same clothes everyday or when I’m alternating between my few outfits, when I’m wearing the same shoes everyday I HAVE CALLOUSES building because of I wear my boots every single day but what alternative do I have? Wear sneakers that are too big and still have my ankles exposed or wear the boots and move on. So embarrassed I had to change my name on here, he’s called me to be honest about it and I am, but he also called me to change my name. My experiences are shared with you all, for anyone to know they are not alone if they shall read this. Aww I want to cry, I shed some tears while writing this, thats how you know the parts that i’m really being vulnerable in. God you said stay away from my feelings so I try not to tell you how i’m feeling too much but if you must know I feel like I had the faith and I did the work in which I asked for, i’ve been doing the inner work, the physical work and still it feel as if i’m outside of your will or your desires for me. I feel empty inside like something is missing yet i’ve lost it all already in the physical so how could I still have a void unless i’m starting to lose my faith. I have said my hope was deferred plenty of times, and just as you said when the desires come I get all excited and giddy like a child again, thats how I felt when my cousins told me they were expecting 😊😊😊. Maybe I am fooling myself, maybe I am just a double minded person always bound to that way and thats why i’m so unstable in all that I do? Maybe i’m lying about what I want from you God, maybe I want the rose without thorns. Maybe I was right as a kid my only purpose is to be sad while everyone else is happy and blessed. Like maybe i’m here to be made an example for everything going wrong. Its like I am the chaos, I am the storm that comes for everybody else to grow and rebuild better than before. I come around and its like it starts good but ends tragic and now people have to go back and rebuild and they do it better while I get to watch and while I’m excited for them I only asked for what you want for me and some desires of my heart specially three, a beautiful family with my husband, my dream career and to leave this world having helped change as many lives as possible however I am allowed to do so. The rest I ask for your will and your way and if your will is this then let it be, and allow me to accept and embrace the season that I am in.
Love this video, I’ve been feeling this urge to just stop stressing so much and just let God handle everything and trust everything will be what it’s supposed to be.
It’s crazy how i’ve been watching your videos since before you we’re married when you did a house tour of your space when you were living alone, now i’m 16 turning 17 and this is honestly the longest i’ve ever went without watching you. & i haven’t finished the video yet but I know this is what I needed. It’s one thing to know God is with you but i’ve been struggling with learning what it is that I practically can do & this video just touched my heart.
Thank you so much for your obedience and faithfulness to God! Watching your videos has helped me fast for the first time in my life and is helping me grown closer to Him!😊❤
I am reading this book in small groups with my church “Whisper” How to Hear Gods Voice (Mark Batterson). It is an amazing book if anyone is interested in really understanding how God speaks to us and discerning His voice. It is an easy read and very practical. Book club? Connect to read/discuss together as a group? This would be exciting!
Thank you Melody for this insightful video. For me the seasons include obedience and being a good steward of everything. I'm listening to God and asking a lot of questions 🙏🏼☺️
I've been feeling like I need to talk about him more. Similar to what you're doing. I feel so compelled to talk about him and share what he's done for me, but I'm sometimes stuck on what I would say being a new Christian. I mean I've always believed, but I've also always been reserved. Never really shared. Because whenever you talk about people always assume you're trying to force your beliefs on them. Now I feel like I want share Jesus. I've been thinking about how can I bring others to him? So, that's my mission.
He’s calling me to step out on faith like Peter & do thing the things He’s assigned me to do. I’m just struggling with obedience due to fear & am actively working with the Holy Spirit to overcome 🙌🏾 Pray for me & I pray for all of you 💜
To God Be The Glory. Sister Melody, thank you so very much for being obedient to God's calling in your life. I am excited for this next chapter God has for me. Amen, Continued Blessings Bestowed Upon You Always. Humbly,
I think God is for sure heavily present in my life and trying to grab my full attention. I've had to serious events happen within a week apart. I seen a rainbow after the second one. As that is a reminder of God's promise and protection. I just had to thank him even in the bad times. God is so good. I'm enjoying my journey of developing our relationship.
Thank you sis for the video I just subscribed to your channel because I saw your video on fasting, and at the time my church was on our corporate fast so your video gave me some perspective on fasting. I would say that my word for this season is waiting. However I’m waiting it doesn’t mean that I’m passively waiting but rather actively waiting. I recently was laid off from my job and I believe that although I’m unsure what steps to take next I know that this time off has allowed me to drawl closer to God and to trust the process. May God continue to bless you with content for the world to discover and may He continue to use you.
I am grateful for you, I’ve been dealing with some things myself and I’ve been praying about counseling so long. And that first 4 minutes in what you said of a season of surrenderance and healing that’s what these last few days the Lord has been revealing to me, and in faithful prayer he’s shown me. I usually skip over these videos but the Holy Spirit to click on it and praise God that I did. Continue to be faithful and letting the Lord make moves in the hearts of people around you. I don’t feel I should say this because something in me says not to make it seem like you need help, but just know this was an investment and I’m giving it to the Lord.
I’m so weary. I want to give up. The devil wants me to lose my faith but God won’t allow it. Since covid I fell on a terrible hardship, like many others. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my health conditions. I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I’m now waitressing but not making nearly enough to get by. I’m a single mom, my husband is with God. I still miss him dearly. My children are autistic and non verbal, I’m overwhelmed they require so much from me. I recently started homeschooling them due to them having do many issues in school. Jesus hear my prayers. I’m tired of struggling every single month. I can’t even afford the tools I need to homeschool my boys. But I trust in you Jesus even as I struggle providing groceries for my children. I’m ashamed. I feel like a failure. I get harassed and put down for sharing my testimony. I only keep pushing because of Christ. Walking with faith not by sight!
Praying for you! Bring your plans before the Lord and He will direct your steps! Hold on!
I am praying for you! I understand that this is a challenging time, but please take comfort in the fact that God is listening to your prayers, and He will answer them. I firmly believe this, and I hope that you will too. Remember, the Bible tells us that when two or three gather in His name, He is present among us (Matthew 18:20), so let us join our hearts and have faith that God will help you through this difficult time. Even though we may not know each other, please know that I care about you, and more importantly, God loves you unconditionally!
I am praying for you sister!!! Don’t give up! I am so sorry you’re going through this but i know God will make a way for you! Life can really suck sometimes but your blessings will come, just have faith. I’ve been there! I’ve wanted to lose faith but God pulled me back. I lost my job as well do to declining the vaccine and life was and still is tough for me but God most definitely made a way and is continuing to do so!!! I cant assist financially but i am more than happy to connect with you and help you find assistance in some way. We can swap emails if you like!! God bless!
I'm sorry for what you're going through. God is going to make a way.
I pray that the lord blesses you ❤️
I too have been called to a season of surrender and extreme obedience. God has been calling me to take everyday with Him one day and step at a time. I often want to know everything that is ahead, but the Lord just wants me to take life with Him day by day. Very different from what my flesh would want to do!
You just described my exact season! I literally repeat to myself daily, "minute by minute" lol. Because I can't even take life day by day. I keep asking God for a vision so I know what I'm getting myself into. I know He wants me to trust Him and surrender wholeheartedly, so that is what I am trying to do in this season!
This is also me right now. I had a lot anxiety and in surrendering I can say that He has delivered me from it. He is telling me to trust Him, something that I struggled with for a very long time. But He has definitely showed up in my life in this season.
I have to thank you as well because this is exactly what I’m walking through.
Waking my own path in this season as well ❤ really allowing me to do the work.
Oh my goodness I can sooo relate to this. The is me right now!
I’m so tired 😪 so very tired but May God give me the much needed strength
Ask God for the strength and release your worries and stress over to him. I know it's easier said than done but it really makes a difference and may provide that sense of relief. God bless
He will, trust isn’t always easy when you can’t see what he’s up to. But imagine, there he is, in the back ground fighting that battle tht is unseen. Many of times we think he isn’t there, he’s there for you b/c look at the people who just responded to you. Believe in what you ask for, even if it isn’t there, treat it like it’s already there or it already happened. Know who YOU are and don’t be afraid to let tht prt of you shine. Listen to India Aire “I am light” and you stay encouraged
Amen
Lord, PLEASE give Your strength to our sister. Help her to continue to SEEK & OBEY. Give her the ability to do so and please remind her that she is yours and You love and care for her. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!
I too feel God telling me to surrender but also I’m in a season where I feel God is telling me to “focus” on him. I can be easily distracted by the circumstances and the Holy Spirit reminds me to focus on what God is saying and His promises.
hey, sis!! I know I'm not the only one God is calling into a season (more like a lifestyle tbh lol) of surrender! Today's question: what season of life does God have you in currently?
For me: I am definitely in a season of unexpected surrender. Surrendering my perspective, my thoughts, my ideas, my hopes, my marriage, my family -- ALL OF IT!! surrender, surrender, surrender.
Sis- the current season of life that the Lord has me in is to show me a mirror of myself, or the capacity that HE sees that I have NOT that I have of myself! It's beautiful! 🤍
I feel the same way. The word "surrender" has been on my mind since the start of the year! So this video is really great! 💖💖 Need to be reminded of all the tips you shared, especially the last one. 😢😢
I’m in a season of healing spiritual and growth to surrender to God and have him guide me all the way!
God currently has me in a season of rest, something I haven’t done well in previous seasons but this time around I really want to do better. The key things I’ve realized that are essential for me to truly experience rest are faith and surrender/obedience, I won’t say I’ve given it 100 percent but I’m being more intentional each day. Also a tough thing to battle in the season of rest are the opinions of others.. So many people giving suggestions about what I should and shouldn’t do but I know moving in another direction will only delay what God is trying to usher me into.
Girllllll this video is very timely because I am in the same season. Thank you. Your channel is a blessing as always. 🤗
I’m in a season of surrendering my love life to God it’s really difficult but I’m doing my best to let go and let God please keep me in your prayers that God will bring/bring back the person who I’m truly supposed to be with and give me the peace and healing that I need 🙏🏻💖
We’re in the same season love , praying for you ❤
@@alimarie4158 thank you for your prayers I’ll be praying for you may God bless you hon 🙏🏻💖
I don’t think I can put a specific name to this season I’m in but it’s definitely a learning, healing, and growing period. I asked God, how can I spend more time with you and He told me by just being and receiving. Finding new ways to spend time with Him and allowing our relationship to grow and breathe instead of keeping it in a box. I think it’s definitely a season of growing closer to Him by allowing Him to reveal Himself to me and allowing Him to pursue me on His terms.
Surrendering to God takes a TREMENDOUS amount of act of faith in God. Abraham was willing to kill his own son to prove his surrendering faith. MANY saints, apostles, died as martyrs while surrendering to God. Others have lived in poverty. "Fully and completely" surrendering to God means doing EXACTLY what HE says--NO excuses, NO ands, ifs, or buts. If God speaks to your heart telling you to do something, do it. If God tells you to stop doing something, do it. Surrendering means whatever you do, do ALL THINGS for the glory of God--including ALL forms of entertainment. Only entertainment that edifies, that gets you closer to God, that makes you think about loving God more. So are we all willing to "fully and completely" surrender to God? We all can, but only by the grace of God and if we accept it and are willing to follow Him.
This came right on time. I had an encounter with the Lord last year in December and He said "I will do it in 2 years". I knew in my heart there were things I needed to give up and completely surrender to God. Thank You, Lord ❤️🙏
I love that "Lord give me your perspective on all these specific things that concern me."
I am also in a season of surrender too. Yooh it's hard but so peaceful. It's like when I do the things that God wants me to do I just get this peace within me.
Guys I've been in a surrender season for the past couple months as well. There are a lot of things I want my way, but I'm constantly reminded that I don't want it to end up the way it did before. One thing I've been learning to exercise is not walking in my own strength while waiting on God to move when/how he wants to.
It's uncomfortable, but I know God needed to put me in a position that would force me to step back.
"God, let everything go according to your plan" has been my daily way of surrendering in this season...along with that grounding technique, that "taking every thought captive" prayer. It's rough out here lol, but we are more than conquerors. We got this!
This is definitely my becoming season. He came through with Devine intervention on a situation I was in and had to sit me down so that I could become who I needed to be for that particular situation. I saw vision and assignment but tried to run (did run) and do a lot on my own, so he had to humble me so that I’m actually ready to receive that blessing.
So really a season of Becoming and Assignment. I’m glad he did what he did, bc th e blessing is gonna be OH SO BETTER than anything my lil human body could’ve put together. I’m have so much more wisdom now.
I looove how patience God is with us! This is so encouraging to hear the journey He’s had you on and exciting to think of what is to come! 🤍🤍 thank you for sharing sis!!
I did it. I felt it. I leaned my head back on the headboard of the bed and relaxed my body, because I really wanted to change this time. It was finally time. I opened my heart after it was cracked open and I genuinely just wanted to come home. I found god, I found me, and then I became we. Thank you for being the manifestation of one of the most important moments in our life. ❤
Surrender is one of those things that shows up in every season for me, and in this season surrender looks like me completely changing everything that I've known and leaned on in times of needing comfort.
This video is so timely because I need the reminder on how to properly surrender and be obedient to His instruction.
I definitely feel like I'm in a season of transformation. God has led me back to Jesus and I'm learning to honor the Son as much as I honor the Father. I felt empty for quite some time and everything in my life felt like a mess but I feel like God is doing something so big and great in my life during these trying times❤🙏🏽.
Surrender season calling my name😭😭
This video is right on time for me. I literally was praying to God and surrendered all aspects of my life to Him the other night, but realized that I actually don’t know how. Thank you Melody!
Every point is so true. Im struggling with surrender. But i definitely agree that asking God to mold our perspectives & obeying the steps of his calling for us is so key!
In this season God is asking me do you trust me? Do you have faith that I will do what I promised you? I take my relationship with God very seriously and I told God that I will not make any moves without hearing from him first. God has a sense of humor because since the beginning of the year, my faith has been tested. We times get hard, I speak God’s word back to him but I tell him I believe that you will do it!!
I needed this. I cried on the way to work today cause I felt so exhausted of life.
I think I am in a season of "waiting on God" I have Surrendered and now patiently 🙏 waiting, because I don't know if I obeyed with a Christlike Posture.
Sometimes I really feel walking 🚶♂ in Faith is easy but also the hardest thing to do especially if you are so focused on wanting to walk and be in alignment with God's plan for your life.
I think Hope and Faith ultimately drives all your decisions 🙏
I have been hardening my heart towards god for some reason i want god. Yet i run to sin well mainly the things of this world that sometimes i put over him. I want him back and I want to make myself to stop hardening my heart and come to him and forget and stop loving the things in this world that will soon just become a memory.
I love when God confirms His word to me through everything around me in some way. I kid you not, yesterday the word "Surrender" came to me as I was continuing to use your "SOAP" method. I wrote it in yesterday's journal log of mine. My prayers will go nowhere unless I COMPLETELY SURRENDER to God! It is my meditation focus for the week to carry with me Everyday! Thank you for your wonderful uplifting and inspirational videos.
All glory be to God and blessings upon you and your family.
I've been called to a season of surrender and have been fighting it harder than ever. I am currently 6 months pregnant and for the first time in my adult life, unable to gain employment. This is a problem I've never encountered before and has me so lost, discouraged, and depressed. I am blessed to have an amazing support system that has held me together, and all keep saying this is God telling me to slow down and come to Him because I am so used to always "go, go, go." Just struggling to understand and figure out how to navigate in this season and become a better/stronger and capable person for this little life that is growing.
I literally go to ask God to help me heal and let go. I even ask to do something to make sure I can trust and sure enough he does. I am beyond grateful for his kindness and love. I keep asking throughout the day.
Thank you for your support and helping others.
💜
Beautifully Said! I truly believe God has called me to surrender too! God called me to surrender my singleness to Him! I could literally feel Him pushing me to delete my dating apps and realign me to focus on Him. I’ve been too busy trying to do dating my way to receive the promise, but Gods like trust me, everyone’s way isn’t the route I have for you. But these points you’ve brought to us are so relative and I needed it, it’s like a spiritual reset button. Be blessed sis & continue with the faith based content. I love it!
Am in the healing season. However, I went through a surrender season, and I wasn't obedient to God. It was hard for me to surrender, but as I am healing it is becoming easier for me to surrender all my worries and anxieties to God.
The Holy Spirit has given me the words “Surrender” and “Wait” !
Video starts at 4:00
This video was exceptionally timely for me, I was praying to the Lord about a situation that I feel he is calling me to surrender to him and was asking him what surrender looks like thennn funnily enough my morning devotion focused on Romans 8:28....watching your video I couldn't believe it haha - God is so good!!!
How to surrounded is the question I Always struggle. Thank You ❤
The quality of this video (visually and content wise) was amazing.
A season of obedience
Sis you ain’t alone
My word for this season is simple - PRAY. :)
I feel like surrendering is a more of a way of life for me. The moment I stop surrendering I feel the weight of life on me.
Hey Melody! I’m definitely in the surrender season. I got so tired of trying to do things my way and nothing was working. Since giving it all to him, I’ve been in such peace. I also have been getting assignments to post and got great feedback from it. So I’m definitely happy in this space and don’t ever want to look back.
Definitely an on-time video! I really needed this! 😩 Thank You God and Melody 🙏🏾
Surrender is my season for now
God definitely has a way of speaking to His children. My focus this year is to focus on Trust…on a greater level. One of my initial challenges was honoring the sabbath. My first day of practice required much mindfulness. But Gif spoke to me through His people every step of the way, you are no exception. I am grateful to God for His faithfulness and the opportunity to tune into your channel today. Blessings to you sis. 🌺💕🌸
That was my focus last year and even though he gave me a new focus this year; he has definitely carried trusting him on a greater level into 2023.
I really like the idea of asking God what I think of Him and allow him to purify it.
Wow, I just walked away from an emotional toxic abusive spiritual marriage; oh by the way God didn't not ordained and am in the waiting season why he is healing preparing. fixing all the broken pieces of my life for the new season .I am embracing this time alone season where he is rebuilding me all over again.
Holy Spirit talk to me plzzzzzzzz‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
This is my season of surrender.
I'm having loads of health issue that I can barely stand for a minute, I'm so tired and trying to cling to the Lord,it's so hard when all seem like nothing is changing but I am hoping he gives me the grace to surrender all to him.He healed me of an incurable disease few months ago and I believe he can heal me again
Please update if you get healed, praying for you
Rn April 19th am going through my surrender season I just realized this after hearing the first step how when I was in school I was walking past couple girls and they called out to me cussing and asking if I think I was a model i simply turn around drew a cross over my body and walked off and I could still hear them cussing at me God walked me through that situation without me even realizing it I thank u so much and I am grateful he brought this video to me
something i was told in Bible study completely changed my life.
how when Jesus went through struggles and difficult times, he never asked God why because he knew God foresaw the struggle and approved it because it would help Jesus or those around him for their betterment.
my jaw was on the floor i had never thought about it like that before
Lately. Been battlin with faith and wanting to stay here…the warfare been on a high but prayer goes higher. Never the less…Surrendering to God is hard sometimes.
Honestly. I’m in a season where I’m being pruned to the core of me. There’s a lot of things, feelings, thoughts and mindset, that are helpful, and some are in the wrong way. And I’m just allowing God to mold me into who I am called to be me. It’s uncomfortable.. but.. I know it’s gonna be worth.
God is using you. Forreal.
I tell you no lie.. God literally has been speaking this exact thing to me. Surrender. Trust in Him. When I watched your video last night, I was thinking - yup, me too. Literally everything / every single point you said is what God has been speaking to me.. so even though I started to comment, I decided not to because I didn’t see the point. I just liked the video and kept it moving.
But listen! I’m journaling right now, and God led me to a sticky note I literally wrote yesterday morning… well, the Holy Spirit wrote through me, instructing me what I need to do.. long before I watched your video.. I’m just going to leave it right here -
“I need to do what God is telling me to do. I need to surrender and give it all to God. I need to abide and rest at the feet of Jesus. Someone I’m connected to needs to see it. Someone I’m connected to is waiting on my yes.”
I don’t know if all of that made any sense, but My God! I’m not even gonna elaborate anymore. If you read it and know, you KNOW. But I do want to say thank you Melody, for your obedience and allowing God to use you. And thank you God for connecting me to her. 🙏🏾🤍
Thank you so much for this video, I recently started getting close to God again and one of the things I was struggling with was surrendering to God, I always felt that I could carry my own burdens rather than giving it to God because it felt like a safer option. I didn’t like the fact that I didn’t know what God would do with my burdens that l gave Him or that I didn’t have control over an area of my life but the more I was holding onto those burdens the more spiritually weak/tired l got…after watching this video and surrendering everything to God I felt complete peace and lightness in my spirit l just want to give God all the glory and honour for how much He cares and loves me and every single one of you guys to go out of His way to make me/us find this video and l thank you for obeying God’s voice to post this video ❤️!!! God bless you and to anyone ready this continue to trust God and cling onto Him through every season, He loves you so much ❤️✝️
I’ve experienced probably the biggest loss of my life yet and I think that I forced myself to move on with life without acknowledging or allowing myself to grieve, so now my head is very foggy and I’m faced with a lot of change. I think that I’m at a point where I no longer have control or where I realise that I was never in control and the more I push things into a certain direction, the sadder I become from disappointment. Perhaps it’s my season of surrender. God’s been alluding to this but part of me didn’t want to see. So this video was just so helpful in that regard. Thank you for your content🙏🏽
Thank you for this! Great reminder to be more aware of my finances as I start over financially and with a new career. I really feel God is about to guide me so well. And being honest & deligient about my money management wisely. God bless you and your family 🙏🏾🫶🏾!
I am weary and have been for years. My dad passed away and I’ve been grieving him before his death. I just want my fire back. To be joyful again.
Im so confused about everything,i need help urgently please pray for me and ask The Lord to send me His Angels,His faithful servants please ‼️🙏❤️
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
I’m sure you know this verse but really sink into what it means. The Lord loves you so much more than you know and He is above all your confusion even tho it doesn’t feel like it. Even tho you feel alone He has never left you and He is will bring you out stronger
“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.””
Deuteronomy 31:8
Focus on Him and who He is and He will bring you peace
“Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:5-7
Praying for you❤
Blessings Queen!! Love your videos!! I am in a season where God is showing me who he is as Abba Father. Last year has been a real test of my faith. I am determined to not let this year brake me. I know I am in a fight for my life. But the LORD died for me. John 3:16 !! I know I have a reason to live. Blessings to you and your family and every other person on here. We are all in this together!! Peace and blessings !!
Identifying, Purifying, Enriching
I’m in a growth season, which feels amazing. I’m hungry for God and His Word. My word for the year is BOUNDARIES. I’m exploring how that applies spiritually, emotionally financially, in relationships, with my time etc.
I'm also in a season of surrendering everything
Restoration season is what He keeps speaking to me. I’m excited and scared at the same time.
We must never make our own idea Of God, we must never make our concept Of God but we must pray and study to know Who He really is, we need to follow God and worship just as He Is, also obedience must never be a means of gain, we must always be obedient wether we get something out or we don't, life is not about us
Hi Melody, greetings from Suriname 🇸🇷.
I've been following you since januari this year, while I was on my Daniels fast. I watched the video about your experience and was captivated 🥰. I am in the season of waiting and know in my heart it won't be long anymore.
I am at rest, seeking the Father in His word and praising Him for who He is. Thank you for your videos, they are a blessing.
If I'm being honest, I don't know 100% what my season or word is right now, but I think it's trust.
Crazy this video is a year old and pop up in my news feed and this currently what I been asking god for and researching
I literally heard the word Surrender in my Spirit as clear as day when I was so afraid of something. And I am sure not what it means. How Lord
So GRATEFUL for how the LORD has used this today! I am going through some things at work, but my surrender season is being taught by Him in really EVERY area of my life. Great steps!! You have said some things on here that the Lord has been saying to me already. Bless you! I don’t know what I would do without the LORD! I NEED time in His Presence…YES, LORD, thank You and PLEASE give me YOUR thoughts!! Please help me to SURRENDER AND OBEY!! Hallelujah and AMEN.
Melody thank you so much for always posting relevant content. I find that most times when I watch your videos they speak into my season. Being in a season of surrendering can be a bit challenging tbh but I'm glad I made the decision to choose God over the flow of the river😋
You are not the only one sis! In this season God has called me to go deeper in Him, & that includes surrendering & obeying. Some areas are easier to surrender, others I’m struggling in. Thank you for sharing your journey (and explaining what ‘good’ means from Romans:28).
Melody, we are on the same page and everything you put out relates to the exact time in my life! Grateful for your comeback! glad you are healing and happy
Good evening, Melody!! This video blessed me tremendously! It was right on time! "Surrender" was something that the Lord was talking to me about earlier today. Throughout the day actually! There are some things that I have to surrender to him. Let me rephrase that! I am in a place where I have to CONTINUE to surrender EVERYTHING to him! My life, plans, relationships, and etc. To exchange my will and my ways for His!! It has most definitely been a process. I know that the Lord will meet me halfway if I do my part! Which sis! Something that I am in the process of doing in this season and time of my life! I am in a place where I have to do things that I do not want to do, but I trust Him. I know that He is a God that will cause ALL things to work together form MY GOOD! FOR MY BENEFIT! The process may not feel good, but it's for my good! I believe that! All I ask is that you pray with me as I continue to pray for myself. FULLY AND COMPLETELY surrendering to God is something that I am willing to do! I need only HIS HELP to continue too!
I am no longer aware of the season I am in, I know that I keep trying to find work after being Fired 😢 I know that God know’s I have no where to really go and that I was working towards getting my car so I could at least sleep in my car yet I got fired on the day that I was going to reach my financial goal - I would have purchased the car and continued to work until I found something else. I know that I just have grown tired of waiting, not to the point that I want to bring it to come on my own but rather that I don’t even want it, I don’t know how to surrender something without NOT CARING AND NOT WANTING IT ANYMORE. When I care and I want something I think about it often, I think about how I would be if I had it and what I intend on doing. I’m an overthinker and i’m just tired of waiting for God to show up. I’m started to accept that if God wanted to and desired that for my life then wouldn’t he bring it to pass? However I done told people what he’s gonna do and now I look foolish, God hasn’t shown up in that specific area but he has made me a witness to other peoples blessings as I have asked. A few months ago I keep receiving a double portion message everywhere, anytime I opened UA-cam, instagram my bible, it was leading me to messages of double! A few months later and I have at least two cousins whom have never been close to me growing up that I have grown closer to recently and they are both having TWINS 😭 may not be what somebody else was expecting but twins from these two specific women? Yeah I automatically saw that as a blessing from God that I was able to witness! One of them told me, she even prayed to God and asked for them, and how he’s with her always especially through this pregnancy since she is high risk, which I didn’t know that all twins or more were automatically classified as high risk. Anyways, I’m tired of going eveywhere and while i’m on the way I’m confident but soon as I enter i’m reminded by the enemy every thing that I don’t have. I hear the laughs and mocks, I feel the strange stares from people looking at me, I know when people can smell me when I haven’t had a shower in days, though I keep trying on these interviews I know everybody around me is thinking “this girl has no motion and she isn’t trying to change it”
I can feel energetically when somebody is speaking about me. I just lower my head because I don’t want the shame of people looking me in my eye seeing me like this. When i’m wearing the same clothes everyday or when I’m alternating between my few outfits, when I’m wearing the same shoes everyday I HAVE CALLOUSES building because of I wear my boots every single day but what alternative do I have? Wear sneakers that are too big and still have my ankles exposed or wear the boots and move on. So embarrassed I had to change my name on here, he’s called me to be honest about it and I am, but he also called me to change my name. My experiences are shared with you all, for anyone to know they are not alone if they shall read this. Aww I want to cry, I shed some tears while writing this, thats how you know the parts that i’m really being vulnerable in. God you said stay away from my feelings so I try not to tell you how i’m feeling too much but if you must know I feel like I had the faith and I did the work in which I asked for, i’ve been doing the inner work, the physical work and still it feel as if i’m outside of your will or your desires for me. I feel empty inside like something is missing yet i’ve lost it all already in the physical so how could I still have a void unless i’m starting to lose my faith. I have said my hope was deferred plenty of times, and just as you said when the desires come I get all excited and giddy like a child again, thats how I felt when my cousins told me they were expecting 😊😊😊. Maybe I am fooling myself, maybe I am just a double minded person always bound to that way and thats why i’m so unstable in all that I do? Maybe i’m lying about what I want from you God, maybe I want the rose without thorns. Maybe I was right as a kid my only purpose is to be sad while everyone else is happy and blessed. Like maybe i’m here to be made an example for everything going wrong. Its like I am the chaos, I am the storm that comes for everybody else to grow and rebuild better than before. I come around and its like it starts good but ends tragic and now people have to go back and rebuild and they do it better while I get to watch and while I’m excited for them I only asked for what you want for me and some desires of my heart specially three, a beautiful family with my husband, my dream career and to leave this world having helped change as many lives as possible however I am allowed to do so. The rest I ask for your will and your way and if your will is this then let it be, and allow me to accept and embrace the season that I am in.
Love this video, I’ve been feeling this urge to just stop stressing so much and just let God handle everything and trust everything will be what it’s supposed to be.
It’s crazy how i’ve been watching your videos since before you we’re married when you did a house tour of your space when you were living alone, now i’m 16 turning 17 and this is honestly the longest i’ve ever went without watching you. & i haven’t finished the video yet but I know this is what I needed. It’s one thing to know God is with you but i’ve been struggling with learning what it is that I practically can do & this video just touched my heart.
Thank you so much for your obedience and faithfulness to God! Watching your videos has helped me fast for the first time in my life and is helping me grown closer to Him!😊❤
While watching this video, God put something on my heart. Thank you for this word and the reminder that God wants us to submit to Him first❤️
Surrender, sanctification and submission season for me. It’s real out here! 😭
I am reading this book in small groups with my church “Whisper” How to Hear Gods Voice (Mark Batterson). It is an amazing book if anyone is interested in really understanding how God speaks to us and discerning His voice. It is an easy read and very practical. Book club? Connect to read/discuss together as a group? This would be exciting!
God definitely has me in my come home season I can just feel him calling out to me
Thank you Melody for this insightful video. For me the seasons include obedience and being a good steward of everything. I'm listening to God and asking a lot of questions 🙏🏼☺️
I've been feeling like I need to talk about him more. Similar to what you're doing. I feel so compelled to talk about him and share what he's done for me, but I'm sometimes stuck on what I would say being a new Christian. I mean I've always believed, but I've also always been reserved. Never really shared. Because whenever you talk about people always assume you're trying to force your beliefs on them. Now I feel like I want share Jesus. I've been thinking about how can I bring others to him? So, that's my mission.
For me I am in a season of being diligent because proverbs 10 vs4. I want my toils to be fruitful
Mine is obedience trusting in him I tend to runaway also inviting him to all area of my life and trusting him in all areas
He’s calling me to step out on faith like Peter & do thing the things He’s assigned me to do. I’m just struggling with obedience due to fear & am actively working with the Holy Spirit to overcome 🙌🏾 Pray for me & I pray for all of you 💜
Thank you so much for this. ❤Am in my season of surrender as well🙌🏽
To God Be The Glory. Sister Melody, thank you so very much for being obedient to God's calling in your life. I am excited for this next chapter God has for me. Amen, Continued Blessings Bestowed Upon You Always. Humbly,
I think God is for sure heavily present in my life and trying to grab my full attention. I've had to serious events happen within a week apart. I seen a rainbow after the second one. As that is a reminder of God's promise and protection. I just had to thank him even in the bad times. God is so good. I'm enjoying my journey of developing our relationship.
Thank you sis for the video I just subscribed to your channel because I saw your video on fasting, and at the time my church was on our corporate fast so your video gave me some perspective on fasting. I would say that my word for this season is waiting. However I’m waiting it doesn’t mean that I’m passively waiting but rather actively waiting. I recently was laid off from
my job and I believe that although I’m unsure what steps to take next I know that this time off has allowed me to drawl closer to God and to trust the process. May God continue to bless you with content for the world to discover and may He continue to use you.
Hallelujah ❤
Surrendering also. Being close to Him...learning who He is. I'm being drawn to read the Bible through.
I know it's 2025! But my word for this season is Patience and Wisdom!
Thankyou Melody ❤️ the love of God shines through you
I am also in surrender season
Yesssss- come through now sis! Love the consistent uploading. Missed you on here! You're totally glowing! I think first comment by the way! wooooo!
This was a very timely podcast for me thank you so much I am about to really begin walking this path right now
I love your biblical seed analogy. Thanks!
I am grateful for you, I’ve been dealing with some things myself and I’ve been praying about counseling so long. And that first 4 minutes in what you said of a season of surrenderance and healing that’s what these last few days the Lord has been revealing to me, and in faithful prayer he’s shown me. I usually skip over these videos but the Holy Spirit to click on it and praise God that I did. Continue to be faithful and letting the Lord make moves in the hearts of people around you. I don’t feel I should say this because something in me says not to make it seem like you need help, but just know this was an investment and I’m giving it to the Lord.
This is so timely for me. Thank you Mel.❤️
So glad you can relate!! 🤍🤍 thank you for being here!
